In its early days, which I believe were the early 2000's before Google search was standard, I thought this program was "the bomb" and I was sorry when it went through changes. As I remember it, it would not only find pc files, but also web files.. and it would summarize them.. incredible for the time. However, I don't think the new version is anything like the old one. I tried the very old setup, but it doesn't run on Win 10.

Comments and Reviews
I'm trying the one month free trial and I have to admit that this software is really good. The ocr is pretty straigthforward and its search works very well.
the Free version index size is limited to 75,000 files

They want 55.45USD for an annual subscription; quite "NUTTY" in my opinion.
Copernic is an excellent files indexer. Highly recommended.
Doesn't deliver as good as CDS5. Promises Onenote integration (yet to see) and basically only "scans" the first three categories plus images. Have touched based many times with support; some just repeat a protocol like a recorder, others are sincere to try and help. Not pleased with this edition (and service) so far (2017-02-23)
All in all, this version feels more like an alpha than beta or stable. Sad news from a company that i have always highly esteemed before.

My earlier version was working great but since upgrading to the newer version of CDS, nothing seems to be working smoothly or missing emails and other data.
Am going to remove it and go with an alternative.
