Virtual Drive Creator description
Virtual Drive Creator - Create Virtual Drives or Virtual CD-ROMS. Long paths become single letters

Create Virtual Drives from long paths, it's easy! Type the full path or (even easier) browse to the path via the Drive and Folder Lists. Turn long paths into letters with Virtual Drive Creator !

Choose a drive letter from the "Available Virtual Drive Letters" list and Click [Add Virtual Drive] to create the Virtual Drive, or Double Click the letter to create the Virtual Drive.

It's just as easy to remove a Virtual Drive, Double Click the letter you want removed as a Virtual Drive or Click the letter and then Click [Remove Virtual Drive].

Make CD-ROMs obsolete: Copy the contents of a CD-ROM to a folder, not the root directory, on your Hard Drive. Make that folder a Virtual Drive (see paragraph above), then install the Virtual CD from the Virtual Drive letter.

Click Start, Run and in the space provided type L:setup or L:install (substitute your Virtual Drive letter for L and see the documentation that came with your CD-ROM for the proper installation command).

Now every time you need to access the CD you can use the Virtual CD from your hard drive. Be sure to make note of the Virtual Drive letter you used to create the Virtual CD, when you reboot your computer you will need to re-create the Virtual Drive using the same letter. (With the Pro Version of Virtual Drive Creator you can make your Virtual Drives Permanent!)

Virtual Drive Creator (VDC) performs the DOS SUBST command from within Windows. This allows you to use a drive letter to specify a complete directory path (d:foldersub1sub2etc).

Limitations:

· Virtual Drive Creator™ (basic) is free. Virtual Drive Creator™ - Pro sells for $14.95. They only difference between the basic and Pro versions is the Pro version will offer the option to make the virtual drive permanent and the basic version will test your system to see if it is capable of performing the required instruction to make the virtual drive permanent.
· What this all means is when you download and use VDC there will be no time limit, nor will you be nagged to purchase the Pro version (the "Buy Now" buttons are not nags, they are there for your convenience).


What's New in This Release:

· Redesigned the Tab indexing to allow for easier keyboard operation.
· Added a special note to the Help file to demonstrate the use of the keyboard in place of the mouse.
