A good alternative software that, while not as simple, doesn't require the MSVBVM60.DLL file: http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=208

This is very handy when dedicated to a process you do often-emailing pictures for instance.I have FastStone too (which is great) but with Fast Image Resizer you can just drag a picture onto its desktop shortcut.If you want,it'll clean off the exif data too.

I tested it and ImageBatch worked for me under Windows 8 x64. It threw error messages only when I tried to add folders and files with Unicode names- it could not process them because ImageBatch does not support Unicode. It is very unlikely that this program will ever be updated.

@smaragdus thing is I found that even paths with no Unicode resulted in the same error so not sure what it is (didn't try Midas' suggestion however). The files themselves were named 0001.bmp, and onward, about 400 files in all, and were being converted to PNG, fwiw.

@Specular
I ran ImageBatch as administrator.
Anyway, FastStone Photo Resizer and XnConvert are more powerful and I guess they should work better.
For conversion and resizing for years I have been using mainly FastStone Photo Resizer (I prefer version 3.5 which has skins which were removed in later versions).

I get the best pdf scan output using IrfanView: smallest pdf file size and highest font quality (no OCR, obviously).
What is your experience?

It seems you have to complete a survey or download games before you can download the application...:-(

According to the screenshots, at least v1.5 is out.

I liked the program and am trying to use it for indexing a network drive. I'm indexing through a DSL connection that occasionally drops. The index takes about 10 hours for 1.5 million files and the drive size looks on the order of 2.5 TB.

When it drops the connection during this time - is there any way to recover and go on from where the drop occurred?

For a scheduled index - is this incremental or does it start over from no indexing?

Link is back! Fixed

IYF for Linux, Windows or Mac.
Index Your Files is a portable, cross-platform utility that can index, import, export, save, and search folder/file information.

Index Your Files works by creating individual databases for an individual/computer. You can also create databases for the whole network allowing you to know the location of the information you need efficiently. It has access to folders and files on every network computer as long as it is powered on. But even if the machine is off, you can still access file names.

It can index Windows, Linux or Mac Disk, CD, Networks, etc., regardless of whether it is NTFS, FAT32, FAT16, EXT4, etc., as it indexes everything recognizable to the OS.

I tried this program on two XP computers. The window appears and quickly disappears. The program doesn't even work when you just try to install it to the hard drive.

Working greatly here on my XP Pro SP2, since first install. No quirks of any kind.

I have used this program lots of times on several computers with no problem. I am on this site because I could not find the program on this computer, so I re-installed from from a previously downloaded file. My AVG antivirus program flagged the executable as dangerous, and removed it. It is a great program, and I have no idea why it was flagged, as it never had been before. I am going to delete my old download, and download it again. I am using XP on all present computers, and I do not remember if I was using it with Win98, which I continued to use until a couple of years ago.

The password is in the name of the zip - WallpaperSwitcher_1.0.2.8_English.paf_pass=zer0dev

Why? God only knows.

Oh thanks! Didn't even bother looking at the filename.

Why would you? As I posted in the comments on the download page Windows truncates the filename most times so you wouldn't even see it. And the fact the uploader hasn't bothered to post anything about it is just as stupid.

Download link and domain name are gone as of March 29, 2012

Ian: thanks, updated

i like this download manager because this needs no serial number

This is actually a pretty neat download manager for its size. I removed a lot of the columns to make it more like a download manager and less like a timed download app.

A good backup when I'm not using Opera or Firefox with DownThemAll.

There seems to be a working download link at Softpedia:
http://download1us.softpedia.com/dl/4dc523d71fd1dc2afc94fc599657c7b7/51d2e752/100154388/software/multimedia/graphic/genthumb.exe

Generate Thumbnail v.1.0 still works fine in Windows 10.
Note that the "installer" installs (in reality, just decompresses) the files in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Generate Thumbnail"
Just move this folder to your USB drive (where you store your portable applications).

@juverax: I was able to get to work with uniextract, have updated the instructions & updated entry screenshot

I've created a blog for it: http://jpgfilebinder.blogspot.com

Latest news and updates will be posted there. Thank you.

Please, replace old download link for other people who need this tool: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Security/Security-Related/Jpg-FileBinder.shtml

Waste of an application.

Copy.exe is built into windows, and the /b copies binary data.
The command throws the zip information at the end of the picture and outputs the result as a picture.

@juverax: Fixed download link

@NunoEFSilva: "How can all this fit in less than 1 mega?" These days, most of a program's heft is either a framework, like Java, Qt or Electron(cf. https://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=23425), or all the embedded media included to make the UI all singing and dancing...

I can recall an era when people competed to make the snazziest graphics and music fit into a 4KB "demo" -- usually built with assembly... :o

Takes captures only for full screen. Did not find how to capture area.

DL-ed it- Used it- Loved it
It's Irreplaceable

The only problem for me is it's bookmark feature
I'd say Comic Viewer is better when it comes to Bookmarking

Version 7 updated for 7 and vista. Even faster and can scroll pdf better than pdf readers. Also possible to save from pdf.

The download link is broken, ... you land on a website where "they check your browser", and then you have have to agree to install an extension .... and this is where I gave up.
I got the "MangaMeeya" somewhere else on the internet (I can't remember where, bcz as a precaution I used a live DVD to download the app). What I downloaded is clean (the .exe has a score of 1/69 on Virustotal, and all the DLLs are clean).
I tested rapidly the app: it is very fast.

Downloaded this to try exporting the pages of a PDF file to image files. It didn't work at all, just returned an unhelpful "failure" message.

The "About PtoBMP" window says it will extract BMP/JPG from PDF files 'created by BtoPDF' (ONLY!!!); this should be clearly described in Synopsys to avoid frustracting loss of time attempting extraction of JPG from PDF files not created with this utility.

Disappointing, this app does not extract jpg images from pdf files.
But this one does: http://tcpdiag.dl.sourceforge.net/project/pdftojpg/pdftojpg/pdf_to_jpg_1a/PDF_to_JPG_exe.zip
It is a command line application (therefore it does not qualify according to portablefreeware) very easy to use (just pass the name of the pdf file as an argument, and all the images are extracted in a folder created and located in the folder where you launch the app). From what I have tested, the images are extracted with their original resolution.

I guess this is a PDF *creator* and not editor... useful to create a PDF from scratch but can not edit existing ones...

It shouldn't be included in as a PDF editor.
All it is is a rich text editor that 'prints to PDF'.

As in 2010 year comments, this is not a real editor: it just can't open any pdf file.

simple and useful program, bad name.

Tried it today on WinXP SP3 PC with a Kingston 4 GB USB flash drive and a Linux image for eeePC. The experience was horrible. I choose to not create a virtual disk (in belief that all would be done in RAM). After the Linux image start execution my brand new USB was corrupted, no data, not readable in Windows. After formatting it reports only 0.9 GB instead of 4 GB. I have rescued it using some low level utility and make an experiment in order to know is the corruption caused by MobaLiveCD v2.1 or not. After the booted image reports disk writing immediately USB stick LED indicates a writing operation and the stick became corrupted again. What if someone starts such utility from HDD? Did my experience mean that this tool can corrupt HDD too?

Wiz may b yr pen drive is faulty. Try to format it with hp usb format utility. Mobalive does not boot 64bit linux. Pity. I downloaded centos n mepis x64 but no use. Both the live images r not booting thru usb also. Can anyone help in this regard.

Dedoimedo review @ http://dedoimedo.com/computers/mobatek.html

Doesn't seem like there's a whole lot of operation-critical settings it COULD write, so I don't think it's a big deal.

This software is brilliant, i burned 3 costers using magicISO.
Decided to find a portable .ISO img burner and this work 1st time, i cant rate it enough THANKS.

Forget what I posted above. This one turned out to be an InstallShield setup too.
I don't know what's up with Active@, but they are calling this zip portable, and it is not.
I hate InstallShield...

The main reason you wouldn't use --lzma with UPX is for speed; NRV is faster. Although both tend to be so fast it doesn't matter, the size difference also usually doesn't matter.

I quite like its simplicity though it could do with some sort of progress meter.

I could not download this from the homepage, I could not even find a valid link there, nor a listing for v2.90

I was always redirected to the homepage, it may be necessary to join the forum to download.

I found something interesting though and the link is below.

This is page P of SAC.

Here is the homepage http://www.sac.sk/

Quite a nice an useful piece of software.
Drawback is, it crashes if about 200 images are opened simultanously...

Apparently, it was updated to 0.7.5 beta, then the website disappeared. You can get the most recent version from:
http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Windows-Portable-Applications-Portable-JPEGCrops-Download-100520.html

Ok, so the author's website seems to be working again. Sorry! At least you've got an alternate download link now.
;-)

i use manga meeya as viewer to show pics in zipped file
it suits me well n i liked it

Another potentially brilliant app for random slideshow viewing of images under voice commands - ruined by the fact that when you pause a slideshow, a 'Paused' message appears on screen, and doesn't go away (until you un-pause)!

It doesn't produce a bit-stream copy (forensic safe). I restored a forensic safe image of a drive and then create an image with this software. I computed the hash values for the images, they don't match. I am albeit leary of this.

I think to produce a forensic copy, you will need to connect the drive to a write block device. You can not use software this way to produce a forensic image.

Note 2: apart from being irritating, it kinda defies the whole purpose of data recovery...
