ESEDatabaseView Description
ESEDatabaseView facilitates a simplistic and approachable workspace to help you explore the contents of ESE databases, namely files with the .edb format. Apart from examining information, it lets you export it to file for later investigation.
No installation required
As setup is not necessary, you can save the program files to a custom location on the hard drive and just click the executable to launch ESEDatabaseView. Otherwise, you can move it to a removable storage unit to run it on any PC directly. The good thing about it is that it doesn’t alter Windows registry settings.
Simple interface and options
The GUI is user-friendly, made from a standard window with an easy-to-navigate structure, where you can begin by indicating an .edb database to extract details from. Worth mentioning is that the tool’s capable of opening locked IE10 databases as well as software distribution databases too.
View and extract database information
The main app window shows plenty of valuable details, such as the object type, ID number, space usage, flags, and root flag. It’s possible to make a custom selection and export data to an external file with the .txt, .csv, .html or .xml format, or to save the entire list.
Plus, you can resort to a search function when dealing with large amounts of data, customize the columns display, ask the tool to automatically detect the 64-bit date and time value, as well as convert GMT to local time.
Evaluation and conclusion
We haven’t come across any unpleasant surprises in our tests as far as stability goes, thanks to the fact that ESEDatabaseView didn’t hang, crash or show error dialogs. It had a good response time and low impact on system performance, using low CPU and RAM.
Taking into account its intuitive interface and straightforward options, ESEDatabaseView offers a simple alternative to studying and extracting information from ESE databases.
