Might be a silly question but if you found a file which wasn't valid, what you
going to do?
Why wouldn't a file be valid?

Agree. Just a f'rinstance.
If this is a fairly secure / stable environment, you could likely do a
fast scan just checking directo
I would just do a foreach loop, from hell that is, writing the data to a
set of tables. On second pass you update if necessary because date has
changed.
Doing MD5 compares just seems harder on BIG FILES to me.

Regarding FileSystemWatcher in .Net, I don't know how good an idea it is
to monitor a whole drive like that.

The thought was to keep an MD5 of each file (or similar), and if that changes
then trigger the actual validation. First run would be intense, but most files
don't change much. Perhaps ever.
It's funny you mention LibreOffice, because a suggestion I received was to use
the command line tool 's

I have used Agent Ransack to find those files that are miss dropped, even

For file validity how about scanning files with your AV? That should
identify fake .pdf files as well as .docx
Now a file inventory for file servers is a lot more to deal with.

I don't think such a global tool or methodology exists, probably for a
good reason.
Taking even PDF or
I work in a Windows Network environment. We're interested in purchasing or
building a system that does document validation on our documents across our
