Dragon UnPACKer Portable

This is the portable edition of Dragon UnPACKer, a simple and straightforward software utility that gives you the possibility to open, explore and extract game resource files. It features basic and advanced settings alike to please all types of users.

Installation is not necessary, which makes Dragon UnPACKer portable. It means that you can save the app files to a custom location on the HDD and just click the executable to launch the program.

Another option is to save it to a pen drive or other removable storage unit, in order to run it on any PC effortlessly and without previous installers. More importantly, it does not add new entries to the Windows registry or create extra files on the disk without your consent, thus leaving it clean after removal.

The interface is clean and intuitive, based on a normal window with a neatly organized layout, where you can open game files from numerous types, such as Age of Empires, Assassin's Creed, Black and White, Delta Force, The Sims, and Medal of Honor.

You can explore the folder structure of the game files and check out the name, format, size, offset and description for each containing item, along with log details on the bottom of the screen. A preview function is available for pictures.

It is possible to hide the splash screen at startup, allow multiple instances, change the UI language, get icons from the Windows registry, modify the default temporary directory, as well as clear the execution log in the main window when opening a new file, among other settings.

You can point out plugins for converting pictures and textures, along with drivers, make file type associations, disable the image preview window, as well as limit the size of files that will be previewed.

We have not come across any stability issues in our tests, as the software application did not hang, crash or pop up error messages. It has a good response time to commands and runs on a low amount of CPU and RAM, so it shouldn't hamper system performance.

To sum it up, Dragon UnPACKer provides users with a simple and effective means of viewing, exploring and extracting game resource files, backed by handy tools and configuration settings.
