FileName Listing

FileName Listing is a small software application specialized in listing all filenames included in a custom folder. It can be deployed on Windows 7 and 8.

Installation vs portable running mode

You can opt for installing the tool on your system or opening the portable executable file included in the package. If you opt for the portable mode, you should know that it comes with several benefits to your system.
You may run the utility without administrative privileges and gain access to the GUI by running the executable file. It doesn’t leave settings file on the host computer so you can uninstall it using a quick deletion task. In addition, you may store it on pen drives.

Clean looks

Upon running the program you are asked to select the directory that you want to process. FileName Listing is able to list all filenames directly in the main window and shows the total number of items found in a particular directory. It does not reveal comprehensive information about each detected item, only the name and file extension.
By default, FileName Listing automatically saves the list with filenames to plain text file format. Plus, you may choose the saving directory where lists are stored and open the output location directly from the primary window.

Configuration settings

The file listing process can be customized with the aid of several tweaking parameters. You are allowed to include subfolders, show full file path, create CSV files, as well as filter the results by filename and extension.
Tests have shown that FileName Listing displays data very quickly and without errors. It is not a resource hog so you do not have to worry that it eats up CPU and memory resources.

Bottom line

The final verdict is that FileName Listing provides a straightforward solution for helping you get lists with files, and can be mastered by beginners and professionals alike.
