Use it to analyze the changes between two revisions of a file.
Note: FreeDiff is not an editor. The differences between files can be viewed but the files can not be modified.
FreeDiff can be used to locate the differences in program source code files, HTML documents, and any other ASCII-based text files. A color-coded side-by-side display of the comparison results makes it easy to understand the differences between the two files at a glance.
Other file types can also be compared if they are first saved in a text format. For example, MS Word documents and MS Excel spreadsheets can be saved in text format and compared. Two versions of the System Registry database can be exported from within RegEdit and then compared using FreeDiff.
Features:
Allows drag and drop of files onto FreeDiff for comparison
Auto-completes file specifications as they are typed in
Compares ASCII text files in a side-by-side format
Differences are shown with color highlighting
Differences down to the character-level are shown
Easy navigation from one difference to another
Search for text within the files
Bookmarks can be added to the comparison results
Ignore Space and Ignore Case comparison options supported
Files can be printed with the differences pointed out

Easy to use, accurate, highly recommend to anyone looking for a file difference comparison tool
Nice, simple app that was the easiest and quickest to set up for what I needed - something that would tell me the difference in the lines of code.
Hi,
This was very useful to me and was easy to download and use.
Thanks
Karthick
A quick search on the web gave me just the tool i needed in my new job. I wanted to compare files to learn about the new SW I am supposed to maintain. I like the simplicity of the user interface. I am a rather old man (52) so I do not fancy artistic user interfaces where it is difficult to find the right buttons. Just the tool I needed, and it took me about a quarter of an hour from I stareted to search on Google until I had it up running on my PC.
Easy to use and works as expected. Would like to see unicode support rather than ANSI only text files.
I needed to check several files for subtle differences. Downloaded Freedif, pointed to the files., looked at the differences, job done. It took less than 10 minutes. from the time I found a link to the time I as done.
It did an excellent job of showing the differences.
I used this to compare large data files (EPA compliance reports) and found it to be more than adequate, and definitely easier than command shell options.
What can I say?
Program works as advertised, and it works well!
I would recommend it!
Great product for the price! Highly recommend it!
I have acutally used this product before at a different employer and find it to be a very valuable tool.
Since it's free I'm happy to review it. No problems so far.
FreeDiff works quite well and is very easy to use. This program saved me having to read the two revisions simotaneously and look for every slight differences.
Nice tool. Worked well for me.
It's really helpful. It helped me a lot in comparing two csv files.
After installation I loaded up two 57KB XML files to compare. The application crashed with an out of memory error and froze my PC which required a hard re-boot. It appeared to have overflowed into the display driver's allocated memory. Nasty bug!
Installation was quick and easy. UI took a minute or two to figure out but fairly intuitive. I was looking for a tool to graphically compare large csv output files and this has met every expectation. Thank you.
compare and merge setupfiles of different release versions.
this is a veryusefull toll to syncronize my setupfiles.
Hi,
The tool is nice.
1.what kind of tasks would you solve with this program?
To compare the previous and current version of .c and .h files.
2. how this program helps to solve your task?
Tracking of the changes particularly one which might have occured inadvertently is really a big problem in development projects. Usage of this tool really reduces the time.
