A downloadable tool for Windows

FileForge

18 Useful File Tools. One Free Windows App.

FileForge is a lightweight all-in-one file utility designed to make everyday file management faster and easier.

Instead of installing a separate application for every small task, FileForge puts a collection of practical file tools into one simple interface.

Completely free. No account required. No cloud upload required.

🛠️ What's Inside

📁 File Tools

Batch Rename Rename multiple files at once using prefixes, suffixes, numbering and custom patterns.

File Splitter Split large files into smaller parts using a size you choose.

File Merger Combine previously split files back into a single file.

ZIP Creator Quickly create ZIP archives from selected files and folders.

🧪 File Generators

Random File Generator Create test files with a custom size range.

Choose the number of files, minimum and maximum size, extension and output folder.

Random Folder Generator Generate multiple folders automatically with customizable names.

Test Data Generator Create disposable files and folders for testing applications, storage systems and file-management workflows.

FileForge includes size and disk-space safeguards to help prevent accidental creation of unexpectedly large amounts of data.

🔍 File Analysis

Hash Calculator Calculate common file hashes and verify that files have not changed.

Folder Analyzer Quickly inspect folder contents and identify where storage space is being used.

File Extension Analyzer See which file types are present in a folder and how much space they occupy.

Folder Tree Generator Turn a folder structure into a readable text tree that you can copy or save.

🧹 Cleanup Tools

Duplicate Finder Find files with matching content so you can review potential duplicates.

Empty Folder Finder Locate empty directories inside a selected folder.

Temporary File Finder Identify files that may be temporary or unnecessary before deciding what to remove.

FileForge does not silently delete your files. Cleanup actions are designed to give you control over what happens.
