The USB memory stick can be used for a lot of things but the best idea to use it would be to turn it into a portable application launcher. Thus, you will be able to carry around all your useful and needed applications and you will save a lot of time and effort, as you won't need to install those programs over and over again on a new computer. A program that can turn any USB stick into a portable app career is CodySafe. This Windows application can be installed either on the USB memory stick or on the hard disk.

After completing the simple installation process and launching the program, it will place an icon in the system tray from where the graphical program launcher can be accessed. CodySafe allows downloading numerous portable apps from the producer's website, all for free. After downloading a program, it will be placed in the launcher, for being simple to launch. Besides containing portable programs, the launcher also offers simple access to the well known Windows folders, like Pictures, Music, Videos and so on.

Included in the options section are some tools for checking the integrity of the USB drive's file system. Using this option, the user can activate the built-in antivirus detection. It's recommended to set the program to automatically check for errors after a certain amount of time. Thus, you will be sure that all the programs contained by the USB memory stick are working properly. Using the same options section, the user can change the theme of the launcher. There are no themes available by default, but the user can download them from the producer's website.

Another option is the Find-If-Lost feature, which allows setting personal information, which can be useful in case the USB device gets lost or stolen. Furthermore, various key combinations can be set, for making it easier to work with the software's features.

Pros

It can turn any USB memory stick into a portable application launcher. Besides that, it can also be installed on the PC and can be set to run on system startup. Furthermore, an automatic antivirus protection feature is included, together with a function for scanning the drive's file system.

Cons

The program is configured to automatically stop any running application when existing it and one should pay attention about deselecting this option. CodySafe is a very useful tool for turning any USB memory stick into a portable application launcher.
