HTML Optimizer Portable

HTML Optimizer Portable is a straightforward software application that gives you the possibility to reduce the size of HTML webpages using predefined optimization properties. It can be handled with ease by users with little or no previous experience in such tools.

As the name implies, it doesn't require installation. This means that you can drop the downloaded .exe file in a custom location on the HDD and just double-click it to launch the program. Another option is to keep it stored on a USB flash drive, in order to seamlessly run it on any computer with no previous setup.

Worth mentioning is that it doesn't integrate new entries in the Windows registry, create additional files on the hard drive without asking for your permission, or need any DLLs to run. A basic file deletion is necessary to remove it from the PC.

As far as HTML Optimizer Portable's interface is concerned, the utility has a small window that shows all options available. You can use the file browser to locate the HTML file you're trying to optimize, indicate the output directory, and click a button to start the task.

Several observations must be made here. Firstly, batch processing is supported, so you can select multiple files to optimize at the same time. It's not possible to set the new filenames, since the original ones are retained.

Secondly, the destination path must be different from the source, due to the same filename condition. Thirdly, HTML Optimizer Portable is not explicit concerning the method used toward reducing the file size.

This tool hasn't been updated for a long time and doesn't make room for customization. On the other hand, we've noticed some minor changes in our evaluation, so you can test it for yourself. CPU and RAM usage was minimal while tasks were carried out fast.
