Microsoft SQL Server 2022 Support for ApexSQL Log?

I am trying to figure out if this tool can help us locate some table changes that were made using the database TRN files, but after getting the free trial of the ApexSQL Log tool, I found that it doesnt support SQL Server 2022.  Is this product still being updated? The last release note is from 2020...

  • You're correct in noting that ApexSQL Log hasn't seen recent updates. The latest release was version 2019.02.1245, dated January 30, 2020. This version does not support SQL Server 2022, and there's no indication of plans to add such support.

    While other ApexSQL tools, like ApexSQL Doc and ApexSQL Source Control, have introduced "tolerant support" for SQL Server 2022 in their 2024 releases, ApexSQL Log hasn't been updated accordingly. This suggests that ApexSQL Log may no longer be actively maintained.

    If you're looking for alternatives to analyze transaction log (.TRN) files for SQL Server 2022, you might consider using native SQL Server features like Change Data Capture (CDC) or third-party tools such as Redgate's SQL Log Rescue. These options are more likely to support newer SQL Server versions and offer active development and support.
