Developer’s Description

By Eric Arnol Martin
Create, check, and correct the syntax of the hostnames.
Hosts File Manager is an open-source Windows hosts file editor and syntax checker. Hosts File Manager allows you to map host names to specified IP addresses. It creates as many entries that redirect to different IP addresses without having to manually find the hosts file and edit it. Hosts File Manager checks and corrects the syntax of the hostnames and IP addresses that you add to the hosts file through the program. You can add entries, change entries, maintain the hosts file, remove entries, export settings, open external hosts files, and save hosts files. Hosts File Manager will even create a backup of your original hosts file on first run.
