LogViewer is a free Log file viewer for Windows that lets you open large log files quickly and provides sophisticated search options to quickly look through desired information in Log files. It is a completely free software to open and search log files. It does not have any log file editing tools, but is a pretty solid option to view log files.
Now, even though the above search options are quite powerful, but there is yet another option this log file viewer provides, that further increases the search capability. You can use this option to search for multiple search terms one after the other, and then rows that have any of those search terms are highlighted. In this way, you can easily do multi-query search in this.
The best part is that each of the search could be separately specified to be a regular search or regular expression search, etc. So, this makes the search feature really versatile. Once you have performed your searches, you can choose to see only those rows that are search results, or you can choose to see entire log file and remove the rows that have search results.
Then, you can also choose to export the search rows from log files. You can export all the rows that have search results, or export log file by removing the rows that have search results. And last, but not the least, it also gives a feature to see additional rows before and after the rows that have search results.
For example, if you also want to select 1 row before and after the row that you wanted to search for, this software can do that too. All in all, this is a very thought of software to easily open log files, perform complicated searches in that, and later export the search results.

This freeware is limited for small log files whose size do not exceeds MB.
Hence, I suggests you to download it only if you are looking for a very basic log file viewer. Glogg is another free log file viewer for PC. The main advantage of this software is that it features Live updation of search results. So, if you are using log file to analyze specific events, then as new events get added to the log file, it will highlight those in the search results.

It is a very fast log viewer in this list. I have tried 1 GB log file in this software and it opened it instantly within 1 second. It displays total number of lines in a log file along with its size on its interface. You can view the number of a particular line by clicking it. The biggest downside of this software is its search feature.
You can only do an exact match search, and choose direction for it forward or backwards. There is no option to do any regex search. Legit Log Viewer is another free log viewer software for Windows in this list.

Even though many of the features are disabled in free version, still its free version has some features that make it stand apart from the rest. The feature that I like most in this log viewer is that you can specify your own log parser in that. What that means is that if you have a log file that have long lines of text, but you want to divide that text in form of columns, then you can define that pattern in this software.
It will then use that pattern to display your log file in form of nice table with rows and columns. And it makes it very easy to define the pattern. You start by choosing a row which has data for all the columns that you want, then break that row into separate columns, then specify the column separators, and you are done. You can also save the log parser that you have defined so that you can use that in future for other similar log files.
And you can define multiple log parsers and pick from among them whenever you try to open a log file. In terms of search, it provides both normal search as well as regex search. However, regex search is available in paid version only. In the free version, it provides option to highlight rows with different colors depending on the filters that you have specified.

The text as well as the background color are completely customizable, using a color selector. The order of the entries determines the prioritization when coloring the lines. You can use the search function to filter out lines that contain certain strings; all other lines are hidden.
The filtering is in real time, so newly added entries are only displayed if the search criteria for this line are met.
