Advanced IP Scanner supports importing IP range lists and any detected device or address can be added to a list of favorites. Admin and hidden shares are not displayed.

Shared folders from all the connected network devices are also scanned and displayed in the window by expanding the computer name or address tree.

The program is able to get MAC address and manufacturer information about most network devices including wireless network routers and adapters, smartphones, tablets, media devices, etc. Sadly this program is now shareware but the last free version from 2016 still works perfectly well.Īlthough it doesn’t produce results with as much detail as a tool like LanSpy, Advanced IP Scanner has an easy to use interface while providing enough useful information for most users. SoftPerfect Network Scanner has a portable version, and separate 32-bit/64-bit versions. Other than being able to scan local area networks for shared folders, it can even search for shares over the internet. Just enter a range of IP addresses, or you can use the Auto Detect IP Range button and click Start Scanning, then expand the tree to view the shares. There is also support for remote shutdown, suspend, hibernate and Wake-On-LAN.

In addition, it allows you to mount shared folders as network drives, browse through Windows Explorer, send messages over LAN, and create batch files. It can ping computers, scan listening TCP and UDP ports, display the resources shared on the network including those which are system and hidden, and perform a whole host of other related functions. SoftPerfect Network Scanner is a feature packed and multi-threaded network scanner with the ability to display a wealth of information and perform a number of operations.
