Ahhh, I see–thanks so much!

I have found another launcher and it is similar to Ueli launcher and like Ueli it has plugin support, it is compatible with Windows 7 and above along with other features. Meet FlowLauncher, another alternative launcher.

Here you can see their website and here is a review of it in Softpedia.

Thanks for pointing this out! It looks like Flow is a fork of Wox, with some Flow improvements having been back-ported to Wox (see here and here).

Hey guys…

How about PowerToys from Microsoft?

What do you think?

I don’t know how it compares, but PowerToys Run is also a fork of Wox.

Lets say you’re looking to load an image into another software like Photoshop. You just need to search for the image with Listary and right from the list of search results, you can literally drag the image (from listary) into Photoshop just like dragging from a folder in Explorer. Simple but incredibly useful stuff.

hey guys

i’m in contact with the dev of FLuent Search, and he is already trying to developp search explorer like listary !
this dev seem to be super nice and for now this app is little more slow than listary but much more powerful.

Thanks for the explanation!

Drag and drop from the search results is also possible with the Everything Toolbar.

It’s a beautiful app but has some CRITICAL negatives.

  1. Need to sideload apps. Not available in installer or ZIP format! Must install from Windows 10 Store and if you’re on LTSC that’s not a popular option. Can sideload using these instructions:

  2. No portable option - this is a dealbreaker

  3. No way to designate folder for program shortcuts. This is a dealbreaker.

Nice beta start though!

sorry but for normal user we dont need portable installation
we dont need to designate a specific folder and still less appx installation …At least for now

Hmm, it never crashes for me. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling it?

Can anyone help me with creating a custom action for “delete”? What’s the parameter value I have to enter. i’d like to delete files with a hotkey, without opening the menu first. thx.

will try, hope the event log helps

@ChrisM
whats wrong with delete key itself?

Pressing delete key does nothing
