Easy Way To Identify File And Folder Read Errors

Editor's comment: There are cases you can’t access a file or folder because it contain some errors that you can’t predict. File Read Test is a tool to tell you this.

Everyone of us somehow manages to procure, over a period of time, some unreadable, erroneous files on our systems that will cause problems when any application tries to access them. While it may not bother an average user, it can become a real issue if you are trying to do a malware scan, or defragment your hard-drive, where the entire process and maybe several minutes would get wasted in an instant. It could be really helpful if one was able to identify such troublesome files beforehand.

File Read Test is a free, OS independent cross-platform, Java-based tool that reads disk files or directories and stops on the first read error. That is about it – the software’s entire purpose is to identify the file that will generate the first read error. It is targeted more towards the advanced user category, but can benefit any casual user as well.
