As the last comment is nearly four years old, I think it's needless to mention that SyMenu actually supports Windows 10. In my case the application even reached the "autostart-status", which is really a coronation for an app. Furthermore, since eight months I am contributing to the large Program Suite as SPS-Publisher. During this time I made the experience of a respectful athmosphere under the people behind SyMenu, which I could talk to so far. Except the developer of course, keep away from this crazy guy...btw hello Gian my friend and greetings to Italy ;-) So, all-in-all in my personal opinion this application is really worth a try and I'm sure it even get's better from day to day! |

CUETools helps ensure an album image is preserved accurately by managing lossless audio and CUE sheet format conversion.

CUETools includes CUERipper, an extremely powerful yet easy-to-use CD ripping program, with features like lossless and lossy encoding options, EAC style logs, automatic metadata look-up and AccurateRip verification.

ClipAngel records all data copied including text, images and files, making it easy to retrieve earlier data where Windows usually allows only one item at a time. The program keeps data even after reboot and can paste in RDP, CMD, elevated windows etc. independently from current input language. Clipboard views include rich text and HTML formatting, filtering by text and details on URL, application and window data.
The program can emulate keyboard input and includes customizable hotkeys. For additional security, the program can block specific applications where passwords may be copied and encrypt stored items.

This is absolutely the best sync app available. I have tried every other one, and not a single other sync app on this website can properly two-way sync two folders. SyncFolders is the only one that can handle files/subfolders deleted in the target folder where all others see those deleted files as missing and copy them from the source folder, which is not the desired behavior. |

AstroGrep is a search utility for quickly finding information within text files. Results are displayed with sidebar options for further filtering and preferences for text result styling. Searches using keywords and regular expressions are supported with options for printing, storing recently used paths, and opening files externally with a text editor (down to the exact line number and column, if supported by the editor).
The program is not an indexing search program, meaning it checks the contents of all files each time it searches. Based on the popular grep search used in *nix.

It does appear to be stealth? When I first ran it, it created a 'appData/Roaming/Diffinity/diffinity.cfg' file, but if you copy that file to the portable location, delete the appdata folder and run Diffinity again, the cfg file isn't created. |

OW Shredder erases files irretrievable by overwriting the affected file data blocks on the disk space, which prevents the reconstruction of the deleted documents. The program can wipe individual files, free disk storage, as well as entire disks or volumes.
The program includes basic disk usage analyzer, file unlocker, autostart manager and more.
Various erasing methods are available, with more iterations (wipes) taking longer to execute and potentially more secure.

Although there are a variety of other ways to add a password to Office and ZIP files, there is no PDF encryption component (either read or write) in the free versions of PDF-XChange, Foxit, and Adobe Acrobat. As a result, this is a very nice addition for PDF users.

IntelBurnTest allows CPU benchmarking and stability tests under a heavy load. The program is commonly used by the overclocking community to measure CPU temperature when used in conjunction with a separate temperature monitoring program.
NOTE: The program will stress the CPU, memory, and north bridge, meaning the machine will run unusually hot. Make sure your PC is properly cooled and ventilated before use. Additionally, setting the "times to run" past 20 doesn't provide better results.
The program is a front-end for the CPU stress testing utility Intel Linpack.

@webfork, which issue? The empty directories or the ProgramData folder? I have 3 laptops running Win 10, 64bit and it's done the same on them all. |

"If you are looking for SE-Explorer, SE-DesktopApps, etc., then we want to inform you that at present we've stopped the development." from web site. http://www.se-soft.com/lang/en/

@PAFuser: it's unfortunate what some people think is obsolete. There are a whole lot of very old programs on my machine that still do a way better job than available alternatives.

I do not disagree, I still use Excel 2003, and it took some work to get it to work correctly on Windows 10 - 64 bit. If program is all you need and works, great. SE-Explorer zip contains SE-MediaPlayer, does not work. Context menu limited to SE-Explorer list, unlike FreeCommanderXE, etc. which include context items added to Windows menu. Future development might have changed this. |
Duplicati is a feature-rich backup client that allows user store compressed, encrypted (AES-256 or GPG) backups locally or on a variety of remote services. The program can save bandwidth and disk writes by only backing up the parts of a file that have changed since the last backup. It can backup open/running programs, on demand or scheduled, and can run in the background with bandwidth and process priority limits to avoid interfering with other applications. Includes support for backups to Amazon S3, Windows Live SkyDrive, Google Drive (Google Docs), Rackspace Cloud Files or WebDAV, SSH and FTP.
Note: As portable software, it necessarily does not run at system startup so the available scheduling tools cannot function unless the program is actually running. To manually run a backup, just start the wizard and select "Run a backup immediately".
Cross platform (Mac/Linux) with available command-line tools.

This program is no longer in development and was left in a beta state -- save early and often. |

sorry, but it is not really portable, the user.config is stored in AppData in a folder dependend on the location of the exe. This is a typically .NET behavior. If you move your exe, your settings will be lost.

Your folders will be moved to recycle bin, so you dont have to worry. Nice app, but author of this app should really learn to use some kind of config file like shaegar said:D |
Whitenoir converts any image to a strictly two colour monochrome image. Using a really simple user interface it's possible to convert any image in just three mouse clicks. The transformation is totally configurable. You can pick which two colours the resulting image should use and tweak the brightness threshold for the dark and light pixels to make your image more or less dark. You can use Whitenior for creating sharp bitmaps from pencil drawings
Functional on 64-bit systems.

I finally got a chance to try this out. It works GREAT for creating two-color imagery. It's a keeper! |
Panchromatic is a very lightweight application which produces a simple monochrome line drawing of any image file. By reducing an image to only a handful of colours Panchromatic can draw lines where any two colours meet.
Line color is customizable as well as the amount of detail captured in the outlines.
Functional on 64-bit systems.

Tried it out, but was not impressed. Already had another free program called "Instant Photo Sketch" and its by far much better than this.

@Loner, the application you suggested isn't Portable! If you have a suggestion please post in the correct thread.

Tried it out and was disappointed. Better than many sketch programs, but still not satisfactory. |
