I'm hoping someone can coach me a bit about a tool that will let me
know when a file is created on my system.
I've gotten really discouraged trying to google this up.
Strings like `File creation monitor' provide no shortage of hits but
in the end you must download install and try to really even just learn
the basics about a tool.
I find there is so much really sorry junk out there that the process I
described above is an all out pain in the butt. Very time consuming
and not really likely to get a good result.
I hope someone here may have tried something and found it to be a
useful tool. All I really am after is to quickly learn of any files
created. I'd like to be able to do this recursively even starting as
broadly as C:\. I'd like this to happen as quickly as one can expect
with such a big search... but after a few tries I'll begin to know
where to look more precisely.
So if you have ever needed such a tool and found one you liked please
tell me about it. Otherwise I might be at this for most of the next
decade. : ).
