WinCatalog 2024 Disk Catalog is a perfect solution! Since its launch in 2001.
Automatically create directories for all files stored on disks (HDDs, DVDs, CDs, network drives, and other media storage devices): WinCatalog will automatically obtain ID3 tags for music files, Exif tags and thumbnails for photos, thumbnails and basic information for video files, content for e-books, archive files, thumbnails for images (images) and PDF files, ISO files, and more.
Organize file directories using virtual folders, labels (categories), and user-defined fields, and use powerful search capabilities to locate files in seconds, even if the disk is not connected to the computer. WinCatalog can also be easily used as a duplicate file finder. The disk directory can be automatically updated through the Windows Task Scheduler.
No matter how large your disk collection is, you will always have the file directory at hand and be organized.
Keep a record of all files and folders stored on disk, and then use this data to help locate the required files. WinCatalog supports various disk formats: CD, DVD, hard drive, removable and network drive, flash drive, and any other storage device, which can be accessed as a drive in the MS Windows environment.
The main asset of WinCatalog is the ability to access directories on any disk, even if the disk is currently inaccessible. You can view a list of files and folders, check their properties and descriptions, and search for files by various criteria.
You can improve search relevance by associating a set of keywords and descriptions of the characteristics of this project with each file (folder, disk).
WinCatalog has a built-in contact list. Use it to monitor which of your friends or acquaintances gave a certain disk. The borrowed disk is marked with a special icon. You can also exchange information about your CD collection with friends.
How WinCatalog Disk Catalog Software Works
- Simply use WinCatalog to scan disks and index them once, and WinCatalog will automatically create directories for disks, files, and folders.
- Use tags (categories), virtual folders, and any user-defined fields to organize directories for disks, files, and folders.
- Use powerful search functions to accurately find the content you need.
The main features of WinCatalog disk directory software are:
Ability to extract thumbnails of graphic files (photos, images, RAW images) and store them in a directory, as well as EXIF data of digital photos
With WinCatalog 2024 Disk Catalog software, you can automatically create and store thumbnails of graphic files (images, photos) saved in all popular formats (JPEG, PNG, BMP, ICO, GIF, Tiff, WMF, and EMF) or RAW image formats generated by most modern digital cameras. You can also save EXIF data for photos (annotations, resolution, camera model, focal length, and other parameters).
This means that you can preview image thumbnails in the directory without opening specific media. It will enable you to quickly and easily find photos or images in images and photo directories!
Smooth scanning of Zip, RAR, and 7z archives, as well as ISO disk images, and adding them as folders to the directory
This program supports Zip, Zipx, RAR/RAR5, and 7z compressed files, as well as ISO and NRG disk images. The files in the archive are displayed as files in the folder.
Automatically extract supplementary information from music, videos, HTML, TXT files during disk scanning and directory creation
- WinCatalog 2024 can display ID3 tags, including artist names, songs, albums, disk covers, and other music file information, in formats such as MP3, WAV, WMA, OGG, OGA, ASF, M4A, M4B, M4P, and MP4.
- For video files, WinCatalog extracts and adds basic information to the video directory, including thumbnails, codecs, video frame resolution, audio track information, etc. Therefore, you can successfully use WinCatalog as a video catalog software.
- For e-books, WinCatalog extracts titles, descriptions, author names, and cover images. The supported formats for e-books are Epub, Mobi, and FB2.
- For HTML files, WinCatalog extracts and stores titles and tags.
- For text files, WinCatalog extracts a portion of the text and creates a preview to display when searching for specific documents.
- For PDF files, Wincatalog creates a thumbnail for the first page and grabs the text (if any), making it searchable by content.
Advanced directory search algorithm, search result filtering, simultaneous multiple searches, duplicate file finder
WinCatalog uses simple queries to implement typical search algorithms, and uses logical operators AND, OR, parentheses, and quotation marks for advanced searches - it makes searches more precise and provides fully matched directory search results. Since you can filter search results as needed, you can almost immediately find the desired directory elements. In addition, search results can be combined using one or more criteria to quickly find duplicate files.
Unlimited disk directory size to meet unprecedented high running speeds
The main advantage of WinCatalog 2024 is its extremely fast running speed when processing disk directories, thanks to the Industrial Database Standard and SQLite DBMS. By leveraging this advantage, you can find any object (disk, folder, or file) in the directory within seconds!
Extremely simple and intuitive user interface
We have invested a lot of effort in developing as simple and clear an interface as possible, so that you can immediately enjoy all the features of WinCatalog 2024 Disk Catalog software after installation.
Contact, label, and storage management (including virtual folder usage)
- Contact management allows you to control who a certain disk is provided to.
- Tag management allows you to assign a set of keywords (tags) to each element for faster and more accurate search. When using drag and drop to arrange collections across virtual folders, keeping the actual file and folder structure unchanged can better manage disk directories.
- Storage management allows you to add all possible disk storage locations to the program. For example, "Box # 1", "DVD Holder # 2", hard drive # 1 shelves, etc., and assign matching set elements to each storage location. When you have hundreds of disks and other media, this will save a lot of time.
Report generation and export and printing of XML, HTML, or CSV (such as for MS Excel and other applications)
This feature allows you to create beautiful reports containing files and disk directories for sending to your friends, publishing online, printing, or performing deep processing in MS Excel.
Unicode support
The WinCatalog disk directory software can correctly handle any name and title, regardless of the language used, thanks to full Unicode support.
