System Files Lister

All components of Windows can be found on the disk drive you install it on. However, it’s best to stay away from them if you don’t want to put stability at risk, but in some cases, manual intervention is necessary to fix certain problems. To help you out, System Files Lister can be used to get a better look at what Windows is made of.

The application does not take you through a setup process to let you use its set of features. This means you can carry it around on a USB flash drive to analyze other computers as well. As such, system registries remain intact, thus not affecting the target PC’s stability or functionality.

It’s best to run the application with administrator privileges, so it can freely gather all data it needs. Once launched, your computer is analyzed, with detected files generated in real time in a list, shown with full path to make it easier to get there.

The entire Windows folder is put under the scope, with detected elements that include DLL libraries, fonts, DAT files, audio, executables, and more. Upon selection, version and general related details are shown in a corresponding section, so you get a better idea what a specific file is used for, making it easy to identify those that don’t belong there.

In case you’re looking for something specific, there’s a built-in search field you can use. However, if it’s not shown if not on the list, and if the search is positive, the target file gets highlighted. Sadly, there aren’t any management options, not even the simple possibility to have the source directory brought up.

All things considered, we can state that System Files Lister comes in handy for taking a look under the hood of your operating system. General file details and descriptions are shown, making it easier to spot intruders. There’s also a search function to quickly identify specific files, as well as a protection check to use with any file on your computer.
