Outstanding free utility for comparing files

WinMerge is a free Windows utility that compares two files and identifies the differences. The differences can then be merged from one file into the other. This is the sort of product that is ideal when you have several different versions of a file and are not sure how they differ. The product is geared to text files so it won’t be much use to you with Word Processing or other complex formatted documents (see below). But for text reports or computer programs, WinMerge is ideal.
