KDiff3 is an application that proves to be really useful for users that have to search and find differences between various documents or even folders. Manually achieving this takes a lot of time and there is also the possibility to lose some elements on the way, but this automatic process takes seconds to complete.

KDiff3 uses a three-way file verification system so that nothing can get past the tool. Two files can be loaded at the same time and after the scanning process is started, it will only take a few seconds to display the results in a highlighted manner. This way, any difference is easily spotted and users can easily discover all of the missing bits from one document. The same process applies to folders as different files will be marked accordingly.

KDiff3 features a simple text editor so that chunks of text can be transferred from one document to the other while words and sentences can be deleted with ease. The differences are shown in a line-by-line manner and rows are automatically adjusted so that differences can be seen exactly. The highlighted parts can be also printed on a sheet of paper for further use, while the report of a folder comparison can be exported in the same manner.
