Free: everything. The Absolute LogViewer is freeware, for personal and commercial use.

Earlier versions of The Absolute LogViewer 1.5

1.5.3.6 — 17 September 2026

  • New files in the right place: they join the list next to their own family and in the right order: AM_20260917_2.log right after _1, rotations (app.log.1, access.log-20260917) next to the original. Anything you arranged by hand stays put.

1.5.3.4 — 11 September 2026

  • Four new languages: Polish, Japanese, Korean and Traditional Chinese — 16 in total.
  • Not just .log: per-tab file patterns to follow .txt files, rotations such as app.log.1, and Linux and Unix logs with any name; binary files are left out automatically.

1.5.3.3 — 10 September 2026

  • The filter context panel now follows the selected line, instead of changing as the mouse moves.

1.5.3.1 — 18 August 2026

  • The Standalone and Portable editions are digitally signed.

1.5.2.8 — 9 August 2026

  • Coloured tabs: pick each tab's name colour from the right-click menu, and reorder tabs by dragging them.

1.5.2.7 — 6 August 2026

  • Time navigation: type a time in the bar and jump to that point in the log. In split view, both panes can follow the same moment.
  • Stronger search: regular expressions and an inverted filter — hide the matching lines, to strip the noise instead of digging through it.
  • Line bookmarks (Ctrl+D or double-click) with jumping between them, and a new box listing every keyboard shortcut.

1.5.2.5 — 28 July 2026

  • On exit, LogViewer can offer to store itself in a fixed place and create shortcuts on the Desktop and in the Start menu — so you don't lose it in your downloads folder. It always asks first, and you can tell it never to ask again.

1.5.2.3 — 13 July 2026

  • CSV/TSV support: opens data files in columns, with the file's header row on top.

1.5.2.1 — 11 July 2026

  • Tabs: independent log environments — each tab watches its own set of files, with its own split, search and ordering.
  • Per-tab management of watched sources: add and remove directories and files in a dedicated window.
  • A new footer with update checking, version history and the app version.

1.5.1.0 — 9 May 2026 · First public release

  • Real-time tail of .log files — new lines arrive instantly.
  • Dual-pane comparison: two files side by side, each with its own search and tail.
  • Highlight rules with regular expressions.
  • Line filter with a floating context-preview window.
  • 12 languages, switched live.
  • ClickOnce, Standalone and Portable editions.
  • Automatic update verified by SHA-256.

Three editions, all free and all the same app: ClickOnce (installed from the website), Standalone LogViewer.exe (needs the .NET 10 runtime) and Portable LogViewerPortable.exe (self-contained, nothing to install). Each .exe is also in a .zip.
SHA-256 of LogViewer.exe: 542D6FA2668B8D398F4E11A462F5A8D12287AEE5A192EBA59A3AEBFA4E642B79
