CD-ROM Open/Close

CD-ROM Open/Close is a lightweight Windows application whose sole purpose is to help users open or close their CD-ROM drive with just one click.

This is a portable program and it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry.

You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to automate the tasks for opening and closing the CD-ROM on the breeze, without having to go through installation steps.

The user interface is quite simplistic and reveals only a few dedicated parameters to tinker with. Everything is kept as simple and clear as possible, so triggering the desired actions requires minimal effort.

CD-ROM Open/Close gives you the possibility to open or close your CD-ROM drive by simply pressing the “Eject” button. You are allowed to pick the drive that contains the CD.

On the downside, there is no support for hotkeys that could help you open or close the CD-ROM on the fly. Since there aren’t any configuration settings, even rookies can master the entire process with just a few clicks.

During our testing we have noticed that CD-ROM Open/Close carries out a task very quickly, and no errors showed up throughout the entire process. As it would be expected from such a small utility, it remains light on system resources, so it doesn’t hamper computer performance, nor interfere with other programs’ functionality.

To sum things up, CD-ROM Open/Close offers a simple software solution when it comes to helping you open or close your CD-ROM drive with just one click. It can be easily configured and installed by all types of users, regardless of their experience level.
