Filecats Metadata is a metadata extractor software that catalogs Windows Explorer data and document properties from various file formats. It creates a table with hyperlinks in just a few clicks. The software offers a free trial version.

One of the biggest problems with Windows Explorer is that it only shows you the files in one folder at a time, with limited information and sometimes misleading dates. This can make it difficult to keep track of your files, especially if they're scattered throughout multiple folders. Filecats Metadata solves this problem by allowing you to copy file information and additional properties into a self-contained table, without the need for Excel. Once you have your data in the table, you can search, analyze, and manipulate it with ease.
But Filecats Metadata doesn't just import basic file information like dates and names. It also imports up to several hundred metadata fields, including Microsoft Office statistics, image properties, audio/video encoding details, and even email data from MSG files exported from Microsoft Outlook. This level of detail lets you create sophisticated analyses and gain insights into your data that would be impossible with Windows Explorer alone.
Despite its powerful capabilities, Filecats Metadata is easy to use. With just a few clicks from Windows Explorer, you can import all of your file information into the table, complete with hyperlinks that allow you to open files directly from the table. This makes it easy to get the detail you need from your files and create the analyses you need to optimize your workflow.
If you're tired of fighting with Windows Explorer and you're ready to take your file management to the next level, give Filecats Metadata a try. You can download a free 7-day trial and see for yourself how much more efficient you can be when you have all of your file information at your fingertips. Videos and other versions are also available to help you get started.
