Disks

The cataloging is done by scanning images of files, folders, and volumes (disks). MyFiles can keep information on all of your CD's, DVD's, floppies, local and network volumes, and any other media you may have in your collection. MyFiles can also extract various information out of your audio files and keep it in the catalog.

After building catalogs with images of your media, you can browse media content without having that media available and access your files directly from within MyFiles. That's a corner stone of cataloging.

Adding a disk

To add a new disk image to the catalog, use the Scan command, then select one of the available paths. Program is capable of browsing inside many compressed archive files and stores them as virtual folders, showing their compressed contents.

Updating a disk

If the files or folders on the disk, which is listed in the catalog, have been changed, you may wish to update this information. Generally, you can update disk image in the catalog the same way as you have added it. To update a disk image in the catalog, use the Rescan command on any item of that image.
