Developer’s Description

Monitor and control changes on a filesystem.
File System Watcher can monitor and report changes on a filesystem. Files that are created, deleted or changed based upon some rules are reported to a list. This list can be exported as a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file to be read by Excel. It features works on network drives, list can be displayed in "follow" mode (always shows the bottom elements) or in free positioning, and colored rows: errors and deletions are red, renamed files are blue.
