Getting Started
Installation
Two packages are available — an installer and a ZIP archive. Both contain the same app.
Installer
Run the downloaded installer (Crimdio_Setup_v….exe) and follow the on-screen steps.
After installation, launch Crimdio from the Start menu or the desktop shortcut.
ZIP archive
Extract the downloaded ZIP file (right-click → “Extract All”), place the folder anywhere you
like, and run Crimdio.exe inside it.
- To uninstall, simply delete the folder
(settings are kept in
%APPDATA%\Crimdio— delete that folder too for a complete removal).
Basic usage
- Folder/File — click Browse… and pick the folder (or a single file) to search.
- Search Text — type the term you are looking for.
- Click Search to scan every supported file in the folder at once.
- Results are listed per tab (Spreadsheet / Document / Text). Double-click a row to open the match in its application (availability depends on the file format and the application).
Search options
- Toggle search options such as Include subfolders / Exact match / Regular expression with the checkboxes.
- Search in (Body / Shapes / Comments / Formulas / Others / Hidden) selects which parts of files are searched.
