Viewing File Names in EnCase with Case Explorer Pane
When you are working with EnCase and need to view the names of the files in a specific folder, such as the 'Business documents' folder, the Case Explorer pane is the appropriate tool to use. This pane provides a navigational view of the file system, allowing you to browse through folders and files in a hierarchical manner.
Unlike other panes in EnCase that have specific functions for tasks like viewing file content, processing evidence, or examining registry data, the Case Explorer pane is focused on helping you explore the structure of the file system itself. This can be particularly useful when you need to quickly locate and access specific files within a large volume of data.
By utilizing the Case Explorer pane in EnCase, you can efficiently navigate through different folders, identify the files contained within them, and access the names of those files. This can be essential for conducting thorough investigations or digital forensics tasks where understanding the organization of files is crucial.
