Considering the vast number of programs working in the background, sometimes it can challenging to detect the data that is written, deleted or modified on your drives. Bitrot Detector is a small application that allows you to keep track of all the changes that occur to the files and folders on your computer so that you can prevent file corruption, infection or loss.

The program comes with a minimalistic interface that displays various details about the scans performed. You should know that you can check out further details – statistics, results or edit the profile – by accessing the functions in the lower region of the UI. Moreover, you can access the folder where the file is stored from within the app.

Before you can monitor the file and folders effectively, first you need to create a scan profile. The setup is straightforward and entails specifying a few details, such as the folder to keep an eye on, types of files and the schedule when the app should scan the desired directory.

As previously mentioned, the utility allows you to analyze the details of the scans in detail. To be more precise, you can immediately learn about various file modifications, such as metadata or content changes, for instance, by accessing the dedicated function. You will be happy to learn that the tool provides you with a clear and marked list with all the modifications detected so you do not waste time.

At the same time, the utility permits you to check out more advanced information regarding the data you are monitoring. Therefore, you can know all about the new files, changed content and files whose metadata has been altered with just one click.

In the eventuality that you are managing hundreds or thousands of files that contain important data regularly, then the importance of creating a backup cannot be stressed enough. Bitrot Detector can help you keep track of the changes and take the necessary steps to maintain the integrity of your data.
