The All-in-One Portable Application Pack To carry around

If you’re a power USB user then you most probably know what portable apps are. For those who are new to the concept – portable apps are (usually) frequently used software (eg. browsers, media players, email clients etc)that have been tweaked to run off a USB stick usually without installation and are designed to avoid leaving behind traces of their usage (eg. window registry entries, histories, temporary files etc). This can always come in handy for travelers since they never get any time to download software while they are on the go. It’s best if you carry a complete pack of all the valuable applications with you all the time.

When you get bit by the portable app bug, most people start making their own collection of portable apps designed to suit their tastes.

The real hassle is finding which software to use – some apps can be tweaked into portable form without problems, and some actually perform worse when converted. However there’s a large number of free software that have no issues being converted into portable apps. You also have to consider: which of these software are totally track-free? The only way to answer these questions was to try each software one by one until you hit something that you liked.

WinPenPack was designed to remove this headache once and for all! Containing the best free software out there and pre configured to run off your USB stick. This includes popular applications such as Open Office, Sumatra PDF, Sticky notes, Filezilla, Firefox, GIMP, Thunderbird, Pigdin, Disk Cleaner, 7Zip and many more. WinPenPack aims to turn the whole portable app scenario into a breeze. It features it own launcher menu which gives you immediate access to all the common software normal users use (eg. e-mail clients, image and drawing editors, chat clients, PC maintenance and security etc.)

The folk at WinPenPack have also made different software packs according to common USB capacity out there – There’s an essential pack which contains the bare minimums to get a productive portable experience all the way to an all in one package that expands to 2GB!

If you feel getting the whole pack is overwhelming you can also obtain each software separately – The WinPenPack team have made 2 categories of these software called X-software (ie unportable software that have been made portable by the WinPenpack team) and Portable software (which are software that were portable ever since they were made)
