I use freeware Activity Indicator v1.1.5.32 which has more options, and for those laptop users that do not have HDD LEDs, this doubles as an status indicator that you can customize, just be sure to disable logging in that case.

And for those that want even more tools, the extensive freeware WSCC (Windows System Control Center) v2.5.0.7 is the go-to toolbox that you should have on your PC, thumb-drive, recovery disc, etc. It's a powerhouse of tools from Nirsoft and Windows Sysinternals with an attractive GUI that you can customize yourself. The included binaries are in x86 and x64, with GUI option to use the x64 version whenever possible.

Thanks GOTD for showing something new, but today's offer is not for me.

Installed and registered without any difficulties and on opening a clean interface.

After running for a couple hours it has listed a number of files been created deleted etc.

I'm sure there are rare occasions when this information would be useful but the limited functions available do not make it a particularly useful program.

A Free program I have found that is much more useful for gleaning information about what exactly the system is doing is available at the following link:-

Today's download will go in my folder called Tools, it contains many programs both free and paid for that help analyse many problems that occur in a system.

XP-Man
What I like about System Explorer is the Snapshot feature, which can record before and after scenarios which includes registry and file changes occurring on the hard drive. The initial Snapshot takes the longest, but viewing changes using the tree-like structure makes it easy to see what differences have occurred.

The only thing I wish it did right is when opening Windows Registry from it, as it will launch the x86 version instead of the x64 version if on a x64 OS. The end result not seeing the 'full' registry picture if one were to launch it manually, via the Run Box for example, that starts the expected x64 version. To be sure, the x64 version of Regedit has the Wow6432Node that mirrors (for a lack of a better word) what the x86 version of Regedit can show.

System Explorer shines with it's on-demand Virus-Total scanner, useful as a second 'opinion' to the installed protection one has on their PC to test any file either in memory running or on the local drive.

Thanks for your comment XP-Man, and good luck stocking your Tool Box with more awesome programs.

I give the publisher high marks for originality. We tend to see one after another softwares doing similar tasks (video converters, PDF manipulators) so this is an interesting change of pace.

It's not a program I can see me using so I'll decline but I do decline with a big thank you to the publisher and GOTD.
