Daft Logic List Folder Contents1.1.0.0

The default File Explorer is able to provide a great deal of info of all files inside a folder, with various info headers to enable. However, there are tons of specialized applications which can also generate reports in different forms to use in other projects. A suitable example is Daft Logic List Folder Contents which can analyze custom folders and export detailed reports you can use in Excel.

Can be used on the go

On the bright side of things, the application skips you the whole effort of going through a setup process. This makes it possible to carry it around on a thumb drive in case you want to use it on other PCs besides your own. However, you need to make sure that the computer you use it on is fitted with .NET Framework.The visual design is minimalistic, and only consists of a few requirement fields. There’s also a description panel so you don’t get stuck along the way. Since the core function is to analyze folders, the main requirement is a location on your computer, but you can also add external drives.

Easily generate Excel reports

Adding a location can’t be done by dropping a folder over the main window, but you can use the browse dialog to simply navigate to a location of interest and select a directory. Related options can be used to include subfolders in the scan session, and whether or not to add only files in the current folder.Scanning is done almost instantly, regardless of the complexity of the folder. There’s no actual output shown, with a couple of export options which generate either an XLS or XLSX file. Needless to say that Office must be installed on your computer to be able to view reports, or any other application which can read generated files.

To sum it up

In conclusion, Daft Logic List Folder Contents is a practical application you can use to generate detailed reports to include in Excel projects. Sadly, there’s no preview shown inside the application, and you need a dedicated viewer in this regard.
