Xinorbis 4.1 BETA 8
Windows 2000/XP/Vista
 
July 2nd 2009
 
Xinorbis is a simple but powerful hard disk analyser. Using a sophisticated mix of graphs, tables and tree displays, it gives the user a complete overview of the contents of a hard disk, folder, removable or network drive.
It makes it easy to see the contents, structure and file distribution and file composition of a whole hard disk, directory, or mapped network drive. Includes full report creation.
Features include;
analyse a single drive, folder or merge several together in one report
view the results by file type, attributes, size, user (owner) and date
the Folder History feature allows you to compare the contents of a folder or drive at times and dates
in-bullt powerful search engine (save results to a file or clipboard)
find duplicate files (by name and size)
complex report generation, with export to HTML, ASCII, CSV or XML
all reports can be highly customised
most charts and tables can be exported to the clipboard or a file
save reports and compare them to see how the contents has changed
high performance scanning and report generation
shell support, scan a directory through Windows Explorer
multi-language support (only English available, though more coming soon)
XP style support
updates released regularly
Xinorbis is now available for download with an installer, the recommended option, or as a zip archive for expert users who want more control; such as installing Xinorbis on to a USB flash drive.
Several additions have been made to Xinorbis to make it operate more efficiently as a "portable application", for more information see the help pages.
