Recently, many users complained that VideoCacheView cannot extract valid video files saved in the cache by YouTube Web site, because YouTube started to split their video files into multiple parts.  So finally, I managed to create a solution that solves this problem.
Starting from version of 2.20 of VideoCacheView, it automatically detects the .flv video files split by YouTube Web site, and displays every chunk of split files as a single record.
The new ‘Split Files Count’ column displays the number of split files that the displayed record represents.
When you use the ‘Copy Selected Files To…’ option, VideoCacheView automatically merges all split files into one .flv that can be played in .flv player. The files are merged in the order of the created date/time of every file.
When you choose to delete a record containing split video files, all split files are deleted at once.

You can download the latest version of VideoCacheView from this Web page.

The new version of WirelessKeyView (v1.50) allows you to easily select one or more wireless keys stored on your computer, export them into a simple text file, and then import these wireless keys into another computer.

This feature might be very useful if you have a large amount of wireless network keys and you want to move them into another computer, without the need of typing every key separately.

Before you start using this feature, you should be aware that there are some problems/limitations:

  • The import feature only works on Windows XP with Service Pack 3 or later, including Windows 7, Windows 2008, and Windows Vista. You cannot use the import feature on Windows XP with Service Pack 1 or Service Pack 2. As opposed to the import feature, the export feature works on any system, including Windows XP with Service Pack 1 or Service Pack 2.
  • The import feature on Windows XP/SP3 is very slow, and WirelessKeyView may temporary hang during the import process.
  • The wireless keys stored inside the export file are not encrypted, so if you’re concerned about the security of your network, you should keep this file in a place where unauthorized users cannot read it, or simply delete it after the import process is finished.
  • The import feature only works with a text file created with the ‘Export Selected Items’ option. You cannot use the import feature with the files created by the ‘Save Selected Items’ option.
  • Your wireless network adapter must be active when using the import feature. If you have a USB wireless adapter, you must plug it before you start the import process.
  • If you have multiple wireless network adapters, a separated key entry will be added for each adapter.

You can find the new version of WirelessKeyView in this Web page.

Starting from version 2.00 of SearchMyFiles utility, there is a new search mode – ‘Summary Mode’. When you scan your files in summary mode, instead of displaying the list of all found files, SearchMyFiles displays summary information for every scanned folder. The summary information of every folder includes the total size of all files, total size on disk, total files count, and number of hidden/read-only/system/compressed files.

After the scan is finished, you can watch the folders summary in 2 modes:

  1. View the totals of the specified folder only (‘Include Subfolders in Summary Totals’ is turned off)
  2. View the totals of the specified folder and all its subfolders. (‘Include Subfolders in Summary Totals’ is turned on)

The result of this new summary mode is very similar to my old FoldersReport utility, which hasn’t been updated for a long time.

When you’re in summary mode, you can still use most of the other search options to create a folders size report according to your needs. For example, if you want to create a summary report only about the files created in the last 7 days (instead of all files report), simply choose  to search the files created in the last 7 days, like you do in standard search.
