Title: Do you use a Disk Cataloguing program on Windows?
Post by: JB on Nov 24, 2010, 18:09:21

Just looking for suggestions really. In the past I used WhereIsIt which was good, but that was years ago. I can't really justify shelling out $40 for a licence just at the moment. (Big household bills at present including a new kitchen for madam).

Anyone point me to something a bit less expensive or even freeware?

I've used Cathy (http://www.mtg.sk/rva/) for donkey's years. Simple but effective.

Sorry, Rik.

Yes it is to catalogue photo's, music and programs which have been stored on CD's. Something like WhereIsIt, where you pop the disk in the drive and the program reads the contents and adds them to a searchable database.

Thanks.

JB.

I use an app called Thumbs+ for years, butt it's not cheap. Have you thought about Google Picassa?

Thanks Rik. I think I will fork out for a WhereIsIt licence. I know the software from old and can remember most of the things it can do.
