I've searched for this and haven't found it, maybe I'm not using the right terms. I'm looking for a file search utility in Windows 7 that will:
- search for files in specific directories
- search for file contents
- preview found lines (preferably with a couple of lines around the found line)
- save search terms as presets (like *.aspx.cs or *.cs or a combination of the two)
- search in office documents
Notepad++ will do this but I'm looking for something that also adds indexing so it's faster. Locate32 does most of it, but doesn't have a preview. Seems that all of the file search utilities that I've found don't do what I want.
