The Google desktop tool can be used to recover accidentally deleted information. For instance, a user who deletes a Word document or PowerPoint presentation can use the tool to find the text. All results are accompanied by cached snapshots of each Web page and document.
The full 1.0 release of the free downloadable tool, which was previously available as a beta test version, adds functionality including the ability to search the full text of PDFs and the meta-information stored with music, image and video files.
Additional enhancements include support for the Firefox and Netscape browsers, Thunderbird and Netscape e-mail clients and new Chinese and Korean language interfaces.

Jonathan Rosenberg, vice president of product management at Google, said: "It's like having a photographic memory of everything you've seen with your computer, right at your fingertips. We're proud to take Google Desktop Search out of beta, and we will continue to extend the utility of desktop search for users worldwide."
In addition to searching a range of computer files and e-mail, Google claimed that its offering is the first desktop search tool to access the full text of Web page history.
