| Description | CoolAutoFormat is a bilingual (German/English) program, with which you can format series of media and - if you want - fill them with data in one action. With CoolAutoFormat you are able to format a big pile of disks highly efficient or realize a small disk production. With this application the repeatly, annoying manual calling of the windows format dialog over the explorer (respectively the typing of commands at the DOS-Prompt) will be omitted. All, you have to do is change the disks, when format (and copying) is done. The program cognize the change of the disks and automatically proceed with the next. The switchable additional voice output makes an operation without a display possible. You can format flopy disks, MOs, Zip-disks, USB sticks and more with CoolAutoFormat, all you could format with the normal windows format dialog. Because of CoolAutoFormat telecommands the normal windows dialogs, highest compatibility is given. Directly after the formatting is done, the medium can be filled up with data from your hard disk. This data you can straight read from existing diskettes or you drag and drop it via the windows explorer. You can hold the different data from all disks of a big media set (up to 99). Furthermore there is an integrated function, that numbers the media serially or give each disk an a set an individual name (which can read directly from the original disk). After the last disk of a set is complete, the program repeats its work with the first disk - till you stop it. | |
