FillDisk v0.02
billon on 28 Mar 2018 Change history
- 801KB (uncompressed)
- Released on 3 Aug 2008
- Suggested by donald
FillDisk is a simple utility that fills up a disk with data. This is useful for testing a separate application's behavior when a disk is approaching full capacity or basic free space shredding when you don't have admin access (recommend checking "No OS optimization"). The program starts with 1GB files, then drops to 512MB, 256MB and so on until it completely fills up the disk.
FillDisk has a very simple interface: just enter a folder for the files to be created and press the "Go" button. You can stop the operation at any point in time and the file that is currently being written will close.

Eraser v5.8.8
webfork on 16 May 2015 Change history
- 2MB (uncompressed)
- Released on
- Suggested by MISIIM
Eraser is a feature-rich tool to permanently delete sensitive data from your hard drive by overwriting it with random patterns. Includes a scheduler, free-space wipe, random number generation for better overwriting, page file wipe at shutdown, password-protected settings, and more. The program includes a wide variety of wiping mechanisms from very fast (only deleting the first and last 2kb) to extraordinarily slow (35-pass). Note that all but the most security-minded users should only need only the 1-pass "pseudo-random" wipe.
Alternatively, Eraser Portable is a PortableApps version.
Note: The 5.x branch is no longer supported. There is a 6.x branch available, but there is no official portable version for this branch and it requires the .NET framework.

Do not erase sparse, compressed or encrypted files when FL2KB erasure is selected to prevent disk corruption. Fix Win32 Eraser builds to be truly Unicode builds. A few 64-bit fixes. Ensure that Eraser uses the latest runtimes packaged with the installer. This should fix hangs when using the Context menu. Fixed the About dialog after migrating to Unicode Sign all binaries packaged with the installer Allow erasing UNC paths Fixed memory exhaustion when doing a free space erase for FAT drives Migrate non-Unicode custom erasure methods to the Unicode methods so that old custom erasure methods are preserved upon upgrade Ensure that Eraser is not running when the Eraser setup is run |

Easy Duplicate File Finder v2.4
webfork on 13 Jan 2019 Change history
- 1MB (uncompressed)
- Released on 18 Dec 2009
- Suggested by boloyoung
Easy Duplicate File Finder helps you find and remove duplicate files on your PC. It finds true duplicates by content (instead of file name and size alone). You can scan multiple folders/drives at the same time, and the search can be restricted by using a scan mask and/or specifying a size condition. Lists of duplicates can be exported to HTML.
Note: linking to what appears to be the last free version (2.4).

USB Flash Tools v2.10
Andrew Lee on 12 Dec 2014 Change history
- 798KB (uncompressed)
- Released on
- Suggested by Andrew Lee
USB Flash Tools is a toolkit that provides several functions for flash memory, including SD or Compact Flash cards and USB thumb drives. The program helps verify reported capacity, backup and restore of a drive (with optional compression), and securely erase the contents. A variety of secure erase methods are available including free space or whole-drive wipe using either basic (zero out / pseudorandom) or high-security standards (like DoD).
Note: While more secure, more passes are progressively slower and can reduce the life of the flash memory drive.

The author "Dirk Paehl" has an interesting collection of software, I'm not sure if they are all portable though.

What I don't like about this program is there the indication that it is running is just the "Pass N" on the bottom bar and the "waiting" icon on the application. A progress bar would be much better.

Disk Redactor v1.2

- 248KB (uncompressed)
- Released on
- Suggested by AlephX
Disk Redactor erases all free space on any hard disk or flash memory storage, preventing deleted files from being recovered.
Note: Disk Redactor does not scramble the filenames, so they can still be read by recovering applications, even if the file content is wiped out.

Would the lack of filename scrambling fool a recovery tool into classing the file as in good condition?

DeepBurner Free Portable Edition v1.9.0
Midas on 15 Jan 2015 Change history
- 8MB (uncompressed)
- Released on
- Suggested by Michael Rainey
DeepBurner Free Portable Edition is an advanced CD and DVD burning package. It supports a very wide range of internal and external (USB 2.0 and FireWire) CD and DVD writers. The free version supports creation of data CD/DVD, audio CDs and ISO images.
| Category: | |
| Runs on: | Win95 / Win98 / WinME / WinNT / Win2K / WinXP |
| Writes settings to: | Windows registry. Despite the claim that the portable edition writes settings to the application folder, I find that it still writes to the Windows registry and user profile folder. However, the number of settings is small and non-crucial, so I think it can be accepted as portable. |
| Unicode support: | No |
| License: | Freeware |
| How to extract: | Download the ZIP package for the Portable Edition and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch DeepBurner.exe. |

very bad. One of the worse software I've used

Very interesting application when you take time to invest in it. Much more than Rainlendar although less fancy interface. Has also the import tools and is fully Unicode. Must be used by a large number of users, as it appears in 7 languages already. New search function quite usefull. Imports are possible from Excel. Extra features, such as the Money application, can be used to replace money or quicken in simple households. The music and film functions are quite handy. I'm positively surprised : it's much better than it seems at first hand.
