[Tweeters] Lightroom Classic

[Robert O'Brien via Tweeters]

Actually, the program 'Everything'  finds any filename on your computer,
image, pdf, doc, etc. literally everything, as fast as you can type in the
name of what you're looking for.  Free download; incredibly useful.  You
can set it to search only for  images, folders, or just set it to find
Everything/
I have several million files accumulated on my computer since when
computers started.  Without this program I would literally be 'up the creek'
