WinCatalog 2015 Release 14

WinCatalog 2015 version 14 Hello, we’re glad to announce that the new version of our disk catalog software WinCatalog 2015 (version 14) has been released.

The new update adds an ability to grab metadata and cover images from electronic books. WinCatalog 2015 supports the following ebook formats: ePub, iBook, Fb2 and Mobi (.epub, .ibook, .fb2, .mobi, .prc, .azw and .azw3 extensions). This functionality requires .Net Framework version 2.0 or newer. Absence of .Net Framework does not affect on WinCatalog functionality: only on the ability to process ebooks.

The speed of processing RAW files has been significantly improved. Now WinCatalog can extract thumbnails and basic Exif tags from RAW files up to 3x times faster! An ability of extracting XMP metadata from RAW files is expected to be one of the next updates.

A significant issue of version 13.5 has been fixed: WinCatalog was not able to process archives and ISO files contents in some versions of Windows 7, Vista and XP. In Windows 8 and 8.1 it worked fine. Now it works in all versions of Windows as expected. If you use WinCatalog 13.5 in any Windows prior to Windows 8, the update is highly recommended for you.

To download WinCatalog 2015 version 14, please click here. You do not need to uninstall a previous version of WinCatalog. Just install the latest version over the existing one. The upgrade is free for everyone who own a license for WinCatalog 2012, 2013 and 2014.

Difference between Personal and Professional license types

Both types of licenses include the same features and allow installation on any number of computers per a license, but Personal license is restricted to non-commercial or educational use, only whereas Professional / Business license includes all types of use, including enterprise, professional and managed IT, non-profit and government use, plus priority technical and maintenance support.

In other words, if you plan to use WinCatalog at home, it is enough to buy a personal license. But if you want to use it at work or for your business, you should buy a professional license.

WinCatalog 2015 is here!

WinCatalog 2015 version 12 Hello, we’re glad to announce that WinCatalog 2015 (version 12) has been released. Top 5 improvements of the new version:

  1. The thumbnail preview panel in the new version is detachable and resizable, so it is able to display thumbnails of any size and may be docked anywhere on the main window. Just grab the “Thumbnail preview” caption and drop it anywhere on the screen.

  2. Rate WinCatalog and send feedback to developers directly from the program. Just click the Star button on the Help and support tab of the Ribbon toolbar, type your message and click Rate!

  3. Status bar of the main window now displays short summary information about the selected folder. It shows a total count of objects located in the folder and number of folders and files.

  4. You asked for it, you got it. Another most wanted feature is the ability to exclude files and folders from scanning by mask. This option can be configured on the General Scanning page under the Scanning section of the Program’s Options. This feature is switched on by default and contains 4 predefined masks to skip *.tmp, *.bak and all desktop.ini and thumbs.db files. You can easily add your own patterns to this list.

  5. Now WinCatalog can automatically add numbers to rows when it generates HTML reports. If you use WinCatalog to generate printable lists of files, this new feature will make your reports even better.

The upgrade is free for everyone who own any previous version of WinCatalog 2014, 2013, 2012 or 2011.
