FileImgU

Back in about 1998-99 Microsoft released a tool called FileImg along with the source code as an unsupported tool.
It is basically a directory listing tool which takes a snapshot of the files in a directory and creates an 'image' file which can be saved, reloaded and searched. Various file attributes are also included. In addition the tool can compare two 'image' files and show the difference between them. This tool very useful for many different purposes. For example when burning a CD or data DVD include the program and the 'image' file which lists every file and path on the disk. Much faster to view/search the image file than to click through each of the directories looking for a file on the disk.

FileImgU is an update of that software to support unicode directories, filenames and UTF8 file exports.
Both the original authors work and my minor revisions are available under FILES as are the sources.

FileImgU.exe released 10/11/2022 version1.1
