Random File Picker

Random File Picker is a lightweight and quite effective software solution whose main aim resides in helping the undecided make up their mind, particularly in choosing a file or folder without too much effort.

The application is fully portable and requires no setup, which means it can be run immediately after downloading and unzipping the archive.

At the same time, this translates into the ability to carry Random File Picker with you on a removable storage device and use it on all compatible systems, without a trace left on the host system.

The program is meant to help you make a choice whenever you are unable to do so based on your personal preferences. If you cannot seem to decide which movie to watch, which social media profile picture to use or which wallpaper to set for today, Random File Picker can step in.

Firstly, you need to define the source directories, one or several, by clicking on the ‘Add’ button in the ‘Root Folders’ section. Afterward, you can hit ‘Reload Directories’ in the lower section and the tool will display them, allowing you to move to the previous or the next, as well as select a random one.

To view the files inside a directory, you can just double-click it and the right-side panel will list them one by one. Moreover, the ‘Filters’ enable you to include or exclude items based on their name or their extensions, but to see their effects you need to double-click the targeted folder again.

For choosing a random entry, you can press the corresponding button in the panel and the result will be shown in the lower section. You can even open it in your default software.

In short, Random File Picker is a useful and easy to understand utility that can help you make a decision more easily, opting for a file or directory based on no subjective criteria.
