# Lumos: System Search
**Lumos** is the powerful, system-wide search and launch assistant for BoredOS. It allows you to find applications, documents, and system files instantly without navigating through folders.
## Opening Lumos
To activate Lumos at any time, use the global keyboard shortcut:
**`Shift + Ctrl + Space`**
The Lumos search modal will appear in the center of your screen, ready for input.
## Features
- **Fuzzy Searching**: You don't need to type the exact name. Lumos uses fuzzy matching to find the most relevant results as you type.
- **Deep Indexing**: Lumos indexes files across the entire system.
- **Quick Launch**: Once you find what you're looking for, launching it is as simple as pressing `Enter`.
## Navigation
When the Lumos window is open:
- **Type**: Just start typing to filter results.
- **Arrow Keys (Up/Down)**: Move the selection highlight through the list of results.
- **Enter**: Launch the selected file or application.
- **Backspace**: Delete characters in your search query.
- **Escape**: Close Lumos and return to the desktop.
