Mcool

Mcool is a simple tool developed specifically in order to help individuals play their favorite audio and video files.

This utility is portable and therefore, it does not require installation. This means that you can copy the program files to any location on the hard disk, in order to easily run the app from there, by double clicking the executable. In addition to that, the files can be easily placed on a USB flash drive or other similar portable storage device, so as to use it on any computer you have access to.

It is also worth mentioning the fact that the Windows registry and Start menu/screen are not going to be affected by the app in any way.

Mcool supports a myriad of file formats, including APE, FLAC, OGG, MP4, WMA, WAV, CUE and M3U.

The interface is very easy to use, for any type of person, regardless of their previous experience with computers. In fact, it is entirely transparent and does not contain controls or buttons. The only visible items are the uploaded songs and their duration.

Files can be added to the software utility with the help of the “drag and drop” feature thus, enhancing usability. It is possible to create and rename playlists, as well as upload files from the Media Library.

The media player contains many keyboard shortcuts, so as to let you control all the options available. For example, “Ctrl+Alt+F5” pauses or plays a song, “Ctrl+Alt+S” mutes sound and “Ctrl+Alt+Right” plays the next file. You should know that all the hotkeys are customizable.

To conclude, Mcool is a piece of software which proves to be useful when listening to songs, with a good response time and minimal CPU and memory usage.
