Monitor File Events

Monitor File Events is a super handy tool that helps you keep track of what's happening with your files. With so many processes running in the background, it’s tough for one person to see what gets written, deleted, or changed. That’s where this app comes in!

Easy to Use and Portable

This app is portable, which means you can just unzip it wherever you want on your drive. The interface is pretty straightforward—it has several windows showing which directories it's watching, your settings, and all the actual events happening.

Set Up Your Monitoring

You can start by picking the folders you want to keep an eye on. It’s a simple process! Just browse through your directories and choose what to monitor. Next, you’ll select what kind of actions you want to watch for. You can track things like file creation times, changes in attributes, or when they were last accessed.

Start Monitoring with One Click

Once you've got everything set up the way you like it, just hit the Start Monitoring File Events button at the bottom of the screen. Easy peasy!

Get Detailed Event Logs

The program displays everything that happens to your files in neat windows with highlights so you can quickly find what you're interested in. The right panel shows general events while the left panel gives more details like process ID and executable path.

Save Your Logs for Later

If you need to keep a record, you can save these log events as a plain text file. This way, if anything important happens later on, you can check it out using other software or just by yourself if there aren’t too many events.

Keep Your Files Safe

If you're worried about malware or unauthorized access to your important directories, Monitor File Events might be worth trying out! It helps uncover any suspicious activity going on with your files.
