If you suspect someone is logging into your computer while you're away, we present WinLogOnView, a useful portable tool for Windows systems backed by Nirsoft. The application will show you information about when all users have logged in and out of your computer, providing concrete evidence of your suspicions. With this tool, you can not only get information from your own machine, but also from computers connected to the network and external drives.

A Simple and Minimalist Interface

WinLogOnView has no big mysteries and follows the minimalist aesthetic of Nirsoft products. Once you run the application, you can see all the information at a glance. On the left, you'll see the user's "ID", name, domain, and the terminal from which they connected. Then you'll find everything related to their connection time (date, start and end of session), as well as network address information.

To show logins on your PC, WinLogOnView takes the information from the "Windows Security" log.

As you can see, the data can be viewed directly from its interface, but you can also export it in HTML or XML format by clicking on "View" in the top menu.

Working with Remote Computers and External Drives

To specify data for a remote computer or external drive, just press "F9" or go through "Options" to access advanced settings. If you select a remote computer, you can choose the computer name. If you select an external drive, the application will ask you to specify the folder containing the "security.evtx" file from "Windows Security".
