DirComp 2.8

DirComp is a lightweight directory comparison utility by developer Wolfgang Wirth, built to make it easy to spot differences between two folder trees. It scans files and subfolders, highlights what has been added, removed, or modified, and helps you confirm that two locations truly match. With flexible comparison criteria and clear summaries, DirComp is well suited for verifying backups, preparing deployments, and keeping working copies in sync.

Key capabilities:

• Recursive comparison of folders and subfolders
• Detection of added, missing, and changed files
• Flexible comparison modes (for example, by timestamp/size or content checks)
• Inclusion and exclusion filters to focus on relevant files
• Concise, exportable difference summaries for reporting or review
• Safe workflows that encourage previewing changes before acting

Common use cases:

• Verifying that a backup or archive matches the source
• Auditing changes between project versions or environments
• Identifying missing, outdated, or unexpected files before a release

DirComp helps you maintain consistency across directories with speed, clarity, and confidence.
