Free Hex Editor
Here is the list of some best Free Hex Editors -
“HexEdit is a free hex editor that I wrote, mostly because I didn’t know of any decent free hex editors. I’m not expecting any payment, but if you like the program, you are welcome to donate whatever you think that it’s worth… Please note that HexEdit has no warranty whatsoever” - HexEdit’s description
HexEdit comes with some nice features, a few listed below:
- Hex, octal, and ASCII displays.
- Find strings in hex, octal, and ASCII.
- Command line usage (hexedit filename), or a GUI Open.
- Edit in hex, octal, or ASCII. Up to 1024 characters can be inserted, and any amount can be cut or deleted.
- Copy and paste. Hex strings (e.g. “01 ff 4d”) can be pasted into the hex window when hex viewing is on and HexEdit will automatically convert the string. Similarly, cutting from the hex window cuts the hex output. When the hex window is in octal mode, everything is in octal.

Another noteworthy hex editor that you can try out if the others don’t seem to be doing it for you.
“HxD is a carefully designed and fast hex editor which, additionally to raw disk editing and modifying of main memory (RAM), handles files of any size.
The easy to use interface offers features such as searching and replacing, exporting, checksums/digests, insertion of byte patterns, a file shredder, concatenation or splitting of files, statistics and much more.
Editing works like in a text editor with a focus on a simple and task-oriented operation, as such functions were streamlined to hide differences that are purely technical.
For example, drives and memory are presented similar to a file and are shown as a whole, in contrast to a sector/region-limited view that cuts off data which potentially belongs together. Drives and memory can be edited the same way as a regular file including support for undo. In addition memory-sections define a foldable region and inaccessible sections are hidden by default.” - HxD description
