JumpListsView

JumpListsView shows information stored in the "Jump Lists" feature in Windows 7 and 8. These lists keep track of recently opened files and folders and let you pin any items to the taskbar for quick access.

No installation necessary

You can save the program's executable file in any part of the hard drive or a USB flash disk, in order to directly launch JumpListsView on any computer. Although it doesn't require DLL files or edit registry settings, you should know that it creates a .cfg configuration file at exit, placing it in the same location as the .exe.

View recently opened files and folders

It adopts a user-friendly interface, where the recently accessed items are immediately listed in the main window at launch. You can check out the name, full path, record time, date of creation, last modification and access, attributes, size, entry and application ID for each file.

Examine information and create reports

The details of one or more selected entries can be copied to the Clipboard or saved to file with the text, tab-delimited CSV, HTML or XML extension. Before doing so, you can hide any unnecessary columns, show grid lines and mark odd and even rows, as well as display global time instead of local.
Moreover, you can set a custom location to load jump lists information from, use a basic search function to quickly track down a specific item, as well as look up details on Google by the application ID.
