Snap2HTML-NG

Information

This application is a modified version of Snap2HTML by RL Vision.

Snap2HTML-NG takes a “snapshot” of the folder structure on your Hard Drive or Network Drive and saves it as an HTML file.

What’s unique about Snap2HTML-NG is that the HTML file uses modern techniques to make it feel like a real File Explorer, displaying a treeview with directories that you can navigate to view the files contained within. There is also a built-in file search and ability to export data as plain text, CSV, or JSON. Everything is contained in a single HTML file that you can easily store or distribute.

Snap2HTML-NG file listings can be used in many ways. An example of some is:

• As a complement to your backups (this is not a backup solution).
• You can also keep a file list of external HDDs and other computers; in case you need to look something up or to save for historic reasons and documentation.
• Helping friends or family with Troubleshooting, you can ask them to send a snapshot of their directories so you can better understand their problem.

It’s up to you to decide what Snap2HTML-NG can be used for!
