SeqDownload downloads an image file on a time scale you set to your local drive. Although this is primarily for "live" images updated frequently on the internet, it can also be used for other types of files.

With this, you can easily create a beautiful animation from the downloaded images or simply watch the historical images on your local download folder. On non-image files, you can make sure you always have the very latest file.

Streamosaur is an audio recording program that records directly to disk. Streamosaur can use any broadcast from the sound card including microphone, input lines from external mixer and more. Saves in uncompressed WAV format by default, but encoding directly to MP3 (128 kbps) can be enabled.

The advantage to this software is that recordings can be made faster and easier, without drawing from a temporary file in RAM like many other recording programs. Additionally, the only limit to recording time is your drive size.

From the makers of Wavosaur.

Universal Extractor allows you to extract files from a wide variety of archive files, including ZIP, ARJ, LZH, as well as MSI and EXE files created using various installer packages (such as Nullsoft, Wise, Inno Setup, etc). Useful for testing apps for portability because you can extract files directly from installer packages without having to go through the installation process. Note that the original developer no longer updates the program so some manual updates may be required.

Alternatively, an unofficial version with the latest-and-greatest internals is available (on Lupo's PenSuite site).

Commercial use note: license restrictions are present on included files UHARC02.EXE and UHARC04.EXE, but can be deleted without dramatic impact on the software. See website for more information.

DriveSort shows you an entire drive or a selected sub-folder by what are usually the most important criteria: the largest and newest files. For speed and simplicity, DriveSort displays only the top 100 files that match your sort criterion.

Most disk space tools show only folder sizes until you "zoom in"; DriveSort is a shortcut to show which specific files are usually of greatest interest.

File Replicator is a batch file search-and-replace that lets you modify all instances of a file in a destination directory or drive without having to manually search. For example, if 7-zip.exe is a component of many programs in your portable collection, you can enable the latest-and-greatest version added to all of them. Simply select the destination to search (e.g. USB drive letter) and the file you wish to replace. From there it will search the drive and show a list of successful files found and ask if you wish to overwrite.
