Advanced File Finder - Filter-based file search & duplicate finder

Advanced File Finder is a fast desktop file search tool for Linux. It walks real folders (your Home by default, or any folder/mount you choose) and filters results by name (contains / glob / regex), type, size range, modified date, hidden files and text inside files.

A lightweight Linux alternative to SearchMyFiles for searching files by size, date and attributes.

Key Features:

  • Real recursive scan with live results, sortable columns and a 20,000 item cap.
  • Filters: name text, glob (*.log), regex, case matching, file/dir/symlink type, min/max size, modified-in-last-N-days, content search in text files.
  • Properties tab: stat() details, owner/group, inode, timestamps, symlink target, SHA-256 and a hex dump of the first bytes.
  • Duplicate finder: groups files by size then SHA-256 and shows reclaimable space.
  • Open (xdg-open), open containing folder, copy path, delete with confirmation and CSV export.
  • Bilingual donate header (Vietnamese / English).
