Portable MyLib

Portable MyLib is a straightforward software application that allows you to seamlessly organize your CD and DVD discs and folders.

Since installing Portable MyLib is not necessary, you can save the app to a USB flash drive or any other external device, in order to directly run its executable file on any computer.

You can have Portable MyLib with you whenever you're on the go. An added bonus is the fact that the Windows Registry is not updated with new entries, and no leftover files can be found on the hard drive after program removal.

The interface of the application is plain and uncomplicated; you can create a new image by specifying the source, base name and description. Plus, you can make the app eject the CD when the task is done.

You can enable 'AutoDescription' mode (e.g. get info from ID3 tags, block non-textual comments), input the creator's name, as well as limit the size of the auto description comment.

Other features of Portable MyLib allow you to edit image properties (e.g. name, default root), use a thorough search function, export an image, folder or all images, open items or view their properties, modify the drive letter and UI viewing mode, as well as check out a log file.

Several general configuration options are available; these focus on the startup and shutdown behavior (e.g. autoload all images, ignore all modifications in images on exit), image tree (e.g. show lines and buttons), image window (e.g. selection of whole string), and interface (e.g. style and language).

The program uses a low amount of CPU and system memory, is pretty responsive to commands, supports keyboard shortcuts and includes user documentation. No error dialogs have been displayed throughout our testing and Portable MyLib did not freeze or crash. First-time users may take a while to get familiarized with Portable MyLib's features; the interface could had been better organized. Unfortunately, no recent updates have been made.
