Text, code & HTML viewer

A file manager, a dozen viewers and a set of power tools — combined into one program that behaves like the Windows Explorer you already know.
Open TXT, HTML, MHT, SHTML, XML, INI and source files instantly, with a proper HTML render mode for web pages and MHT archives.
JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP, ICO, WMF, TGA, PCX, WBMP, JP2, JPC, PGX, PNM, RAS, J2K and Adobe PSD — all without extra codecs.
Play AVI, MPG, WMV, ASF, MOV, MKV, WebM, MP4, VOB, RMVB and more, plus MP3, WAV, MIDI, FLAC, APE and other audio formats.
Switch any file between normal, ASCII and HEX mode. Read raw bytes, inspect DLL, OCX and AX exports, and debug binary formats.
Browse and extract ZIP, RAR, CAB, GZIP, JAR, TAR, BH, LHA, ZOO, ACE, ARC and ARJ archives without leaving the window.
Search a whole disk for files, batch-rename by pattern, and convert WAV to MP3 — the everyday chores are built in.
FileSee keeps the navigation model you already know, so there is nothing new to learn.
Click any file in the left-hand tree, exactly like Windows Explorer. Use ← and → on the toolbar to step through a folder.
Press N for normal rendering, A for ASCII and H for HEX. Same file, three different ways of looking at it.
Media starts playing on selection, archives open in place, and Tools → Search files in disk finds anything on your drives.
From plain text to Blu-ray streams — if Windows can store it, FileSee can almost certainly show it.
The groups above show the main families; the full list in the program also covers WPL/WMX/WMD/WMZ/WAX/WVX playlist variants, DVR-MS, TPS, HDMOV, OFR/OFS and more. If a file refuses to open, it is almost always a missing codec rather than a missing feature — see the FAQ for the free K-Lite Codec Pack links.
A familiar three-pane layout: file tree on the left, file list, and a live preview of whatever you select.
No subscription, no per-seat maths, no activation servers to phone home. One payment buys a license that works forever and includes every future upgrade.
