USB Oblivion v1.17.0.0

webfork on 30 Nov 2021
  • 5MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 29 Nov 2021
  • Suggested by I am Baas

USB Oblivion erases all traces of USB-connected devices, drives, and CD-ROMs from the registry. Since Windows keeps a record of all devices attached, this is useful both for privacy and for users who prefer "stealth" software.

Category:
Runs on:Win2K / WinXP / Vista / Win7 / Win8 / Win10
Writes settings to: None
Dependencies: Administrator rights
Stealth: ? No. Creates setupapi.app.log in Windows\inf during run but then removes it.
Unicode support: Yes
License: GNU GPLv2
How to extract: Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch USBOblivion32.exe or USBOblivion64.exe if using a 64-bit OS.

hamasaki, on a whim, I renamed the 0 file, adding the zip file association name. That worked.

zorro on 2020-07-15 05:36

@ hamasaki: just change the extension to zip, it works

Thanks @zorro and @GMBudwrench - confirmed status and added a note to extract instructions.

R-Undelete Home v6.7.180011

lwc on 24 Dec 2022
  • 57MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 23 Nov 2022
  • Suggested by pplknownothin

R-Undelete recovers files from external USB disks, digital photo and video camera memory cards and other devices with the FAT (FAT12, FAT16, FAT32 and exFAT) file system. In addition, it also uses the scan for known file types, which makes R-Undelete an ideal solution for the recovery of lost digital photos, movies and music.

Note: the majority of Windows storage solutions use NTFS and ReFS, which can only be recovered with the pro version.

Category:
Runs on:Win2K / WinXP / Vista / Win7 / Win8 / Win10
Writes settings to: Application folder
License: Free for personal use
How to extract: Download the installer and select "portable USB option" while installing. Launch r-undelete.exe.

From their website: R-Undelete run in the free Home mode has no limitations for recovery from FAT partitions and also allows you to evaluate how the software recovers lost files from the NTFS file system, for which it has a limitation to recover files larger than 64KB. [filelist] can be previewed to estimate recovery chances before you upgrade the Home version for recovery from NTFS partitions

Seems that recovery from NTFS costs money and thus makes this application almost useless today.

I finally said to myself "Duuuuuuuuuuuuuh" ;)
Why am I wasting my time with downloading this app realising that this app is useless from a freeware point of view.
My above comment on 2017-08-25 20:17--that version never got
downloaded & I have ceased wasting my time.
I don't know for a fact that this app has always been so restrictive because I came in late on finding this app.
Perhaps if there's an earlier version for Vista that someone knows about, thats less restrictive, maybe you could share that with us.
Have a nice weekend everyone.

Guido76 on 2018-06-28 02:26

I agree Happy.Camper2's comment.
This software have a huge limitation as a freeware, and it is a wasting time to try it.
Please, stop to promote this apps !

Like Opera, just wish it did not updates every week. Another today, never know what is updated, security, or unimportant.

PAFuser on 2019-04-09 11:04

Upgraded to 60, only 1 extension icon is visible. Does anyone know how to get them back? They can not be used when invisible.

PAFuser on 2019-04-10 17:44

Simple solution, download new installer, install to new location, add all extensions to Opera, change settings, import bookmarks. Easy upgrade, HA!

YUMI v2.0.9.4

webfork on 5 May 2022
  • 2MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 30 Jan 2022
  • Suggested by webfork

YUMI (Your Universal Multiboot Installer) can be used to create a multi-boot USB flash drive containing multiple operating systems, antivirus utilities, disc cloning, diagnostic tools and more. Aside from a few distributions, all files are stored within the Multiboot folder, making for a nicely organized Multiboot Drive that can still be used for other storage purposes. YUMI uses syslinux to boot extracted distributions stored on the USB device and reverts to using grub to Boot Multiple ISO files from USB, if necessary.

YUMI works much like Universal USB Installer, except it can be used to install more than one distribution to run from your USB. Distributions can also be uninstalled.

From v4.38
Added support for [SIVDEF.ini] which can be used to provide defaults for configuration parameters that are not already present in the registry. By default SIV will save these defaults to the registry unless -NOSIVREG is selected. Note that when SIV is run from a DVD/CD or Removable Drive (USB Flash Drive) -NOSIVREG is the default.

Thanks Wolfghost and red-ray: added the nosivreg bit to the entry.

Ooops, "PlayList Copy" is the culprit trojan file, but still should be careful with this site. The author should know about this and fix it, or have their softwares be avoided.

There is more good Amok free software:

I have used AmoK DVD Shrinker (also portable), which "shrinks DVDs up to one fifth of the original size without any noticeable quality reduction".
I used it to reduce a DL DVD to a 'normal' DVD.

aazard on 2020-11-09 00:49

A+++++, "Kneel before Zod" level power

Burns ALL types of CD, SVCD, DVD's (RL & DVD-RAM). If it can be erased it can erase it.
I'd gues its a small plug-in (and skilled coder) away from Blu-ray burning with how well made it is

Amok CD-DVD Burner & their 2 "best" other app: DVD Shrinker & MP3_ReEncoder.
Tiny, the features ppl really use/need.

This is to "Big name" Burning software what VirturalDub is to KdenLive OR Waveshop is to Ocenaudio.
Its not the "best available" but its the best at "BYTE FOR BYTE" WEIGHT

- Amok Burner is 970Kb
- Amok DVD Shrinker is 700kb
- Amok MP3 ReEncode is 1.6mb (THATS WITH x86 Lame "v3995o 32bit" added & it weighs in at 339kb).

3.2mb total! Imgburn is bigger than that
Thats 3.2mb for EVERYTHING, once UPX'ed, and like I said that INCLUDES lame for windows.

DSynchronize v2.48.28

billon on 22 Jan 2021
  • 2MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 22 Jan 2021
  • Suggested by milentechie

DSynchronize lets you copy, move, or synchronize folders on your computer or over a network. The program can sync in both directions, making both folders up-to-date with the latest data, do real-time sync where any changes copied to destination and even verify it's transfers. The program can schedule operations, add timestamps to the destination folder and keep multiple backups (iterations).

If in use, the program can even eject a USB device when an operation is complete.

Warning: DSynchronize is meant for power users! By default the program does not send deleted files to the Recycle Bin, but are instead deleted outright. Use caution in initial sync tests with sensitive data.

Sinchu: Emphasizing that I've used Dsyncronize for years and it's definitely my go-to sync program, I acknowledge any program that deletes files should probably send them by default to the recycle bin. I've added something to the entry.

Whitelist on 2019-06-17 16:01

Webfork: I had the same problem as sinchu. The program deleted around 500gbs of data overnight. Is there any way I could get this data back? I'm not super knowledgeable in IT but I have a general understanding of how things work. Is there a specific software I could use to get the data back since I don't have any previous versions of the data to restore. Thank you.

webfork on 2019-06-19 09:40

@Whitelist: I recommend you post in forums about that. Short version: disconnect the drive that lost data until you're ready to test and look into data recovery programs such as Recuva.
