Windows 10 can do all that for free, if you let it maintain content indexes.
Even without content indexing it's easy to search all or some of drives for file types, using wild cards and date ranges. E.g. Search c:/users for *.docx, then sort results by date.

The 1909 which I rashly installed, has introduced some search bugs. Different folks report different bugs,mine is that when I type into the search box of file explorer, I don't see any characters, yet they are there invisibly so the search works normally when I press enter. 1090 has also totally broken sleep. If I tell pc to sleep it does not get to where the lights dim, and it sticks there. Only a complete power cycle recovers it. I have chosen to disable sleep on the lower me j to avoid accidents, as none of the googled workarounds would fix it. I don't like hibernate and with 24gb ram and a ssd drive don't want to waste a huge chunk on a hibrenate file at 75% of ram. This is the first windows update that I have seriously considered rolling back. But that's yet another risk. I will wait for an eventual fix.
