HexBrowser

HexBrowser is a software utility that enables you to easily identify file types.It does not care about the file extension, but opens each file to look for signatures so it can determine the exact type of a file. It recognizes more than 200 different file formats.

HexBrowser shows detailed information about each file, or a hex- or text dump of the beginning of each file (for the sake of speed).

HexBrowser shows extended information about the followin file types: exe, pe, ole/doc/xls, ttf, jpg/exif, lnk, mov/qt/3gp/mp4, zip, wav, rmf, asf.

HexBrowser can be started with a file or directory path as parameter.
