What is UC HEX Editor?

UC HEX Editor

A computer can't read text as we do and only relies on the internal structure of a file to tell its type and put it to good use. One of the code types a file goes by is hexadecimal, a binary structure with couples of characters representing every item inside the target file. To view and edit this type of code, UC HEX Editor provides an intuitive interface and a simple set of controls.

• Intuitive interface for viewing and editing hexadecimal code

• Portable application that can be stored on a thumb drive


• Registry entries are not modified during use

You might find the main window a little frustrating, not because it's too complicated, but edit and view space are limited, with no possibility to drag the window borders around to resize the main window. On the other hand, the general display is intuitive, with HEX code rows shown first, binary pairs on most of the space, while corresponding characters inside file content in a separate section.

Additional Information:

Unfortunately, you need to manually browse through the entire content to find values of interest because there's no built-in search function to help you out. An additional tool can be used to view ASCII code, but it only shows the general structure of ASCII characters, with no relation to the opened files. Be advised that saving overwrites the original file.

All things considered, UC HEX Editor is a straightforward tool you can use to view and edit binary data for any kind of file. Although the set of features only provides the bare necessities, with no built-in search function or the possibility to save as a separate file, it gets the job done properly overall.
