FileTag -- A program for tagging files.

FileTag is a tool that creates and updates a local sqlite database that connects user created tags to Video, audio and picture file information. It's helpful in organizing collections of videos with non-descriptive filenames.

I.e. a tag "cosplay movie" could be linked in the database to a cosplay video file.

Filetag never modifys your file, just the database. The database filetag.db is created the first time FileTag runs.


FileTag is a Net Core 3.0 Desktop application, it is packaged as a self-contained set of files in a .zip, Download the zip file, unblock it in properties, unzip it into a directory, and execute FileTag.exe within. The .zip file is very large as the trim and single file features of self-contained net core 3.o applications are still a work in progress.
