Free Windows Multi-format Ebook Search and Preview Plugin
I put together windows shell extensions for most popular eBook formats (Kindle, EPUB, PDF etc) in a single (free) installer package

It allows books to be indexed by windows search and be previewed as thumbnails and page by page in windows file explorer and compatible file managers like xplorer2

for more information see here
http://www.zabkat.com/blog/mobi-epub...ows-search.htm
(for MOBI, AZW3, PDF, EPUB, FB2, DJVU, XPS, PRC)

please let me know if you have any problems or suggestions

Except windows search indexing is so bad I disable it. XP, Vista, Win7 & Win10.

@nikos - I'll definitely make use of it.

I installed your EPUB Ifilter soon after you released it in 2017 and I've used it (via Windows Search) several times a week ever since. The missing link has been the Preview.

BTW there's a plugin for Calibre (Drop Search Results) that I use to "mark" books that Windows Search finds in a calibre library - works with xplorer² and similar software.

there are other uses as well, e.g. you can manually search inside books withe the right program (without indexing)

recently I released a program that can find duplicate ebooks by content, using this plugin above

I use Calibre to search, which can search subsets and has excellent full text search commands.
