BareTail – Free Tail For Windows

I started using BareTail about 3-4 years ago when I was doing migrations (Quest Migration tools have a large number of logs) and I’ve been using it ever since then. If you have a need to monitor log files in Windows, go download BareTail from Bare Metal Software. It’s free, no installation or registration required. I just used it to tail some WDS logs as shown in the example below. It also does highlighting, supports files larger than 2GB and fully supports viewing files located on network shares.
