We released a new powerful efficiency tool called RunFlow, which is similar to PowerToys and Alfred, welcome to try it
RunFlow is a cross-platform productivity tool which can launch apps and search files and more, that similar to Wox and PowerToys on Windows, and also similar like Alfred and Raycast on macOS. But we have differences with these tools, and we have our own unique new features. Right now, at the below, we will introduce you what features of RunFlow have been implemented in more details. It's an amazing journey, let's start.

Keypirinha: A fast launcher for keyboard ninjas on Windows
I find Wox (which also uses Everything) a really great quick launcher, it saves a lot of time.

Just formated my PC, and I forgot a certain Windows search software that I had
Maybe it's Wox (https://github.com/Wox-launcher/Wox) which is no longer maintained. Out of all these Spotlight alternatives, I think Fluent search is the best https://github.com/adirh3/Fluent-Search

Sol: Open-source Alfred/Raycast alternative for macOS
I shared the exact same sentiment when I transitioned to Windows after a long period of only using macOS. I eventually began building a launcher myself using C# and over time it has become my daily driver. Feel free to check it out at https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint, PRs welcome :-)
A few other nice candidates I found include:
- Keypirinha: https://keypirinha.com/
-
I am genuinely curious - why Microsoft thinks this is an acceptable default search behavior?
Other options that are open source are wox, cerebro and flow launcher

Microsoft says Windows 11 File Explorer ads were ‘not intended to be published externally’
Have a look at PowerToys Run - based on Wox, open-source, and officially MS-backed.
- I thought they've fixed it already?

Win-Vind: Vim powers with speed of thought in Windows 11
Looks like there’s an Everything plugin https://github.com/Flow-Launcher/Flow.Launcher#everything-pl...
Looks slick! https://github.com/Flow-Launcher/Flow.Launcher
Do you know if it does anything like what Everything does re/ tapping into Windows's underlying file database?
-
Somehow AutoHotKey is kinda good now

The Fluent Search creator is pretty active and available on Discord.

Windows Terminal is now the default Windows 11 22H2 console
Personally prefer Flow after having used both extensively

What checks would allow you to deem a closed-source app as safe? (worries over Fluent Search)
You could also see if Cerebro or Flow work for you, both of which I tried last year before settling on ueli.

Flow Launcher false positive? (VBA 32) [Help Needed!]
I recently downloaded the flow launcher from github. On running the exe through Virus Total, it shows 2 detections, the first by MaxSecure, which is most likely a false positive, considering that it shows the same detection in various files, but I need a second opinion on the VBA 32 detection.
