Filelist Creator

There are all sorts of situations in which you may need a list of your files, but creating such a list can be tedious work, especially if we're talking about huge amounts of data. The best approach is to use a specialized application, such as Filelist Creator. This simple utility can list everything you have in a folder instantly, even if you have thousands of files. What's more, it lets you control what information should be displayed in the list and you can export your list in various formats.

The application comes in a ZIP archive and you can just extract it and run it, without going through an installation process. It is compatible with all modern-day Windows platforms and it doesn't ask for any special tools or services.

Filelist Creator's functionality is pretty straightforward. Its user interface consists of a list, to which you can add individual files or entire folders, and a preview area, where you can see how your exported list will look. Regardless of how you import them, the files will show up in the order in which they are added to the list. However, you can click the column headers, in the first list, to sort them by name, format, size and other criteria. Setting up filters is another possibility.

By default, the software will display basic information, in separate columns, but you can add a vast range of other details by clicking a series of check boxes, on the left side of the main window. Besides general information, like name, format, type or path, you can also add dates, metadata for media files and images, file attributes, checksums and others.

The generated list can be exported in different formats. You can save it as a plain text file, but you can also store it in HTML format, as an Excel spreadsheet or as a graphical image. Regardless of its size, the list can be generated instantly. If you need to use the list right away in a project, another option is to simply copy it to the clipboard.

Creating a list with all your files can be done in just a few seconds, with only a few clicks, thanks to Filelist Creator's straightforward and efficient functionality.
