Right-click. Inspect. Move on.
Right-click any file in Windows Explorer and get hashes, strings, hex, PE internals, and metadata in a compact popup. Built for reverse engineers and the curious.
01how it works
- Run
filelens.exe --registeronce. It adds itself to your right-click menu. - Right-click any file in Explorer and pick Inspect with FileLens.
- A popup opens at your cursor with tabs for everything relevant to that file. Click away to dismiss, or pin it.
Remove it again with filelens.exe --unregister. No installer, no admin rights, no service.
02what it shows
InfoSize, timestamps, entropy, magic bytes, type detection and extension mismatch warnings.
HashesMD5, SHA-1 and SHA-256 computed in parallel, with copy buttons.
StringsASCII and UTF-16 strings with a live filter and pills for URLs, paths, IPs and keys.
PESections with entropy, imports by DLL, exports and signing status for EXE / DLL.
HexFirst 64 KB as a hex dump. Click any byte for details.
MetaPDF, Office, JPEG EXIF and PNG chunk metadata. Tabs only show when relevant.
