Once packages are exported and off-boarded from the your K1000 or K2000, it can be difficult identifying or finding a particular package unless you made sure to document the files. They can be even harder to find if the exported item was already removed from the K2000, or in a disaster recovery scenario where you only want to import packages that you need right away.

This script will gather identifying information from all of the exported K1000 and K2000 packages in a specified folder and deliver the information in HTML format.
Please bear in mind that it will not work if you have only .pkg files from your K2000, as it reads the data from the .xml files that are exported with those .pkg files.
With K1000 it will extract the .XML file from the .kpkg and then keep it stored for faster reading the next time the report is run.

Only tested with version 3.3 and higher .pkg (K2000) files and 5.2 and higher .kpkg (K1000) files.

You can download the script here.

Feedback is very welcome, please let me know what you think or if it helps you.
