Find Any File searches your local disks for files by name, creation or modification date, size, or type, and creator code (not by content, though). Unhappy with Spotlight because it does not find files that you know to be there? Use FAF to find every file on your disks, including those usually hidden. By file name, date, and size (not by content, though!) can find files that Spotlight doesn’t, e.g. those inside bundles and packages, and inside system folders that are usually excluded from Spotlight search.

  • macOS 10.11 or later 64-bit

  • Recover a file whose name you partially remember?
  • See what files got changed in the past 5 minutes?
  • Find all the large files on your disk?
  • Uninstall software that leaves files in hidden places where Spotlight doesn’t look?
  • Search with regular expressions?

Find Any File (FAF) is the perfect tool for these tasks.

You can even search on disks that are not indexed by Spotlight, including server volumes.

Contrary to Spotlight, it does not use a database but instead searches the data on disk directly. This lets you search for file properties such as name, creation and modification dates, file size, even plain text inside files.

Another useful feature is its hierarchical results view (see screenshots). It lets you view the found items within their respective folders, making it often much easier to browse through 100s of found items.

•• Note ••

FAF can not search file content other than plain (unformatted) text – and even that is rather slow, so don’t expect this to be a good replacement for Spotlight.

For searching text in Mails, Word and PDF documents, and similar files, Spotlight is still the best tool (whose results can be enhanced with Tembo, also available in the App Store).

•• Here’s what users say about FAF ••

“FAF goes where spotlights can’t easily reach.”

“As the administrator for about 50 school Macs, I often need to look for some file misplaced by a novice or, while troubleshooting a system, I often need to search for obscure operating system files. Find Any File is in my arsenal of tools when things files or folders go astray.”

“I use it when I want to find a specific kind of file or to see and eliminate or compare the double and redundant files. I surely use it 4-5 times a week.”

“Also I keep FAF as an icon in the toolbar of every Finder window. When I have to actually find something, I use FAF instead of the Finder.”
