Common File Types



The Heureka indexing engine touches most files on a system's hard drive and records metadata into the local index. Files that can be opened and contain text will also be indexed and placed in the local index thus extending search capability into file content.

Heureka's engine supports thousands of file types. The below table represents nearly 500 of the most common file types supported.
