Cons
I just wanted a simple list, without subfolders. No settings, which I tried would give that to me. Install on Win 7 difficult until copied aphook.dll to Windows folder. After too much trouble, did get a csv with subfolders.
Summary
This simple program is far too difficult to set up and use. Help file is seriously lacking as the application is both hard to install and to run. The developer needs to streamline the user interface.
Have app remember last input and output files and file names.
Make the filelist available on a right click within a folder to put output file in same folder
Write out more detailed instructions for someone who cannot read the developer's mind.
Allow a simple flie list to a text file or csv without subfolders or the complete file path name in the output.
