Hex viewer

Klennet Recovery features a built-in hex viewer. The same hex viewer works for disks and file previews. It is, however, rather basic. Consider a dedicated tool like WinHex if you want something with more features.

Navigation

You can switch the address format between

  • hexadecimal byte offset,
  • decimal byte offset, and
  • decimal 512-byte sector number plus an offset.

You can move around using the arrow keys, PageUp, PageDown, Home, and End on the keyboard. Also, you can go to the specific address (Ctrl+G).

Address format

There are three options to display the address:

  • hexadecimal byte offset;
  • decimal byte offset;
  • decimal LBA (512-byte sector number), followed by hexadecimal byte offset within the sector.

Selection and copying

To select the data on one side, click and drag your mouse on that side. To select both sides simultaneously, start dragging on one side and finish on the other.

If one side is selected, the hex bytes' text representation is copied, like 12 34 AB CD, or the ASCII text. If both sides are selected, the viewer copies the ASCII-art formatted version of the data. The Copy Formatted option always produces a formatted copy of data.
