CodySafe app launcher gives PortableApps suite some competition
First, in addition to letting you organize your applications, you can organize documents on your flash drive much the same way you do on a Windows PC, by sorting items into pictures, music, video, and documents, with shortcuts to each on your start menu. Second, CodySafe has a ton of customization options, including:
- Customize your start menu by arranging items into groups
- Add programs to an Autorun menu so they will launch whenever you run the CodySafe menu
- CodySafe Control panel lets you adjust the language, system settings, or scan the disk for errors
- Set custom command line parameters for each application
CodySafe is a free utility. Future versions will include file, folder, and disk encryption, and a disk backup tool.

Or just go with the modified portableapps menu, which has so much more options then either, such as TrueCrypt support and more.

whats interesting is that PortableApps.com Platform (formally PortableApps.com Menu) actually has more features than CodySafe :P and categorization is coming in 2.0 so it's coming along and also I heard that it's also going to have the ability to use a password to protect your drive too

Just wondering if the decision to block USB Autoplay (only option is to browse the folder) in Windows 7 will render these launchers useless?

Windows 7 is actually not blocking USB Autoplay, it blocks Autoplay as default option. User may enable Autoplay on his computer for specific or for all USB devices

whats interesting is that PortableApps.com are talking too much about what will be in the version 2.0 and still did not release version 1.6.
The ability to use a password to protect a drive? you mean any drive? you mean encrypt? you mean encrypt USB portable drive and risk ALL the data on your drive?Zach, please do me a favor! Stop repeatig the crap from ads.
