SuperFetch_Tools

SuperFetch_Tools contains two tools designed to investigate the information that SuperFatch stores in its database files. As of this release, these investigative tools do not yet fully know the format of these files, as Microsoft does not document the format. However, these tools represent the best effort to date to extract infomraiton about them.

This release consists of two tools:

• SuperFetchList is a command line tool that dumps out the contents of a DB (scenario) file.
• SuperFetchTree is a GUI that organizes file details from all of the DB files.

Screenshots are shown below:
