Used WatchDirectory for Windows?


Editors’ Review

Download.com staff

WatchDirectory is a digital housekeeper that keeps watch over a specific folder and reacts automatically to changes. It can automatically unzip, upload, or delete files as they are downloaded, or create reports that identify who has changed or deleted files. The software includes some basic scripts designed to delete, move, copy, zip, print, or convert file formats, but you'll need some familiarity with batch (BAT) files or CMD scripts to extend its functionality.

Monitoring options can be set using a graphical interface or command line. In our tests, monitoring did not significantly strain system memory. Overall, WatchDirectory is a reliable program likely to please system administrators, but we wouldn't recommend it for most general computer users.
