The most basic goal for Portable WhereIsIt? is to provide access to the contents of any media you have from a cataloged database, even if the media itself is not available on the system - you can browse lists of files and folders, search by any criteria, use descriptions, thumbnails, categories, flags, etc.
Portable WhereIsIt? is a successor of successful DOS program Floppy Master, extending its capabilities to new and larger media storage devices and providing even more comprehensive access to stored data.
With Portable WhereIsIt? users will be able to handle any kind of data, including downloaded programs, magazine CD-ROMs, music collections like MP3s or audio CDs, graphics collections, document backups, etc.
Portable WhereIsIt? can handle lots of them, too, a couple hundreds or thousands disks in a catalog is nothing unusual, yet catalogs remain reasonably small, single-filed and easy to transfer or send to other users.
You can also create more than one catalog, and at any time open and work with as many catalogs at once as needed.
Portable WhereIsIt? is easy to use for both beginners and advanced users. It features a familiar and well thought-out, Explorer-like user interface, combined with strong searching and reporting capabilities, multi-language support, automated description and thumbnails importing through extendable plugins from more than 70 different sources, and much more.

Requirements:
· 5 MB free hard disk space for program installation and catalogs.
· Mouse or other Windows-compatible pointing device strongly recommended.

Limitations:
· Adding new disk images to catalogs is limited. Unregistered version allows adding at least three removable disks (floppy, CD, DVD, Zip drive,...), or until the total capacity of all already cataloged disks reaches 2 GB. You will not be able to add more disk images to the catalog if the above limit has been reached. If you want to add more data, you can open a new catalog.
· Auto-loading catalogs on program startup is disabled. Registered users can setup a list of catalogs to load automatically when program is starting, or select to open all catalogs that were opened in the last session.
· All reports will include a visible message saying they were generated with an unregistered version.
· Tips on program startup can not be disabled in the unregistered version. The first tip will always remind you that you are working with an unregistered shareware program.
· Script language is only available in registered version. Script language is mostly used for unattended catalog updates, or it can perform special tasks on program startup, for example, updating the catalog data when program starts, so you always have the latest state to work with.

What's New in This Release:

· The setup program will now specifically check if WhereIsIt is running before attempting installation, and warn the user.
· Updated DcrawPlugin to the latest version of dcraw.c.
