FileSieve

The official repository for the FileSieve software.

Please note that the Issues section above should be used for reporting any problems or suggestions, as opposed to the original FileSieve Tracker.

Code and scripts will be added to the Code section so that various aspects of FileSieve can be improved by the community as a whole.

FileSieve can be downloaded from here, or directly from this repo (see above).

Download

While FileSieve hasn't actually been made open source yet, I've added the original binaries above; here's what they are.

Main application

• FileSieve4.exe
  • This is the actual application itself. This needs to be installed; it's the limited version, so you'll need to grab one of the licence installers below.

Licence installers

• FileSieve 4 - Enterprise Edition.exe

  • This is the installer that installs the Enterprise Edition licence. This is the most complete version of FileSieve, so you'll want this one.

• FileSieve 4 - Home Edition.exe

  • This is the installer that installs the Home Edition licence. This has fewer features than the Enterprise edition, but it's here for completeness.

How do the license installers work?

They simply install a .dll to the application data directory for FileSieve; there's no insane Adobe-level services or whatever running. It's a single .dll that provides additional features to FileSieve itself. Deleting that file will then revert FileSieve back to the limited version. There's no uninstaller or anything; it's incredibly lightweight.

Remember to exit FileSieve before installing a licence. Once installed, run FileSieve as normal and it should be unlocked.
