This doesn't require WSL to work, or any other outside compatibility layer. Just download and manage files like you would in bash. It requires git, gcc, g++, and docker exes in path if you wish to use them. otherwise you do not need them for wnus to run. Windows 10 or Windows 11 highly recommended. Screenshot are of older version the app still looks the same, Now sh has access to all built-in commands from subshell.

    F&S File Find

    F&S File Find

    F&S File Find - An ultra fast, cross platform, file find tool

    F&S File Find (i.e. Fast and Slow File Find) is a cross-platform command-line tool designed for Ultra-Fast Searching for Files on your hard drive. The application uses two main facilities to quickly locate files on your drive: 1. Caching previously visited folders in order to allow Ultra-Fast searches on consequent searches. 2. Multi-Core operation to speed up searches. (Compared to the standard Windows/CLI search tools) The application is designed to favor speed over all other computer resources (mainly memory), As my assumption is that if you want to locate a file on your drive, you want results as fast as possible. Currently tested only on Windows. Linux/Mac releases are still pending.
