Freeware - File Management - File Content Viewers

Textview is a handy software program to quickly review large collections of text files, like i.e. CD-ROMs full of source codes or extensive web-projects with many html-, java- and other scripts.

Binary Viewer is a free windows utility allowing you to open and view any file located on your computer regardless of what format the file was saved as. It can display data in decimal, octal, hexadecimal and text formats. Program has simple and intuitive user interface, supports large file sizes (up to 4GB), and has very small memory footprint.

Simple tool to display a hex dump of the header (first 256 bytes) of a file. It takes just a mouse click to copy to the clipboard all the results and infos (plus the necessary UBB code for correct formatting) to allow a quick paste into the text box of a new reply on a forum. Designed for the non skilled PC user seeking assistance in a forum about a certain file.

Index.dat QV has one purpose and one purpose only, to allow you to view and save the contents of your index.dat files. QV does NOT allow you to delete these files, only view them.

The WinSpy index.dat viewer lets you read the contents of your index.dat files (it's free and a small download). If you are not familiar with these files, don't be surprised - they are hidden on your computer. Windows uses index.dat files to organise data on your system. They reside in the Cookies, History and Internet Explorer's cache folders. This presents two problems: Index.dat files can grow quite large and as they increase in size, they tend to be bogged down with unneeded data - making them less efficient. Secondly, snoops can recover the index.dat file and read details such as your History, even though the items may have already been 'deleted' from the History folder.
