Extra Drive Creator contains tools:
Crypted Drive û tool is used for creating Crypted drives on your
computer. On this drive you can store confidential information which
you`d like to keep secret from other users. The drive is crypted
by 256-bit (32 symbols) password using "AES256" algorithm in real-time
mode (this ensures steady protection of your data against hacking).
On creating of Crypted drive on your computer the extra drive crypted
by your password will appear in Explorer. At the same time the
container-file with your crypted information will be created on
your hard drive.
Virtual CD û tool is used for creating and reading ISO-images of
CD-ROMs and also for mounting them as Virual CD-ROMs on your computer.
On creating Virtual CD in Explorer of your computer will appear
Virtual CD-ROM and ISO-image on your hard drive on which information
from created drive will be kept.
File to Drive û tool is used for creating extra drive without
partitioning hard drive of your computer on additional drives.
This tool uses file as basis for extra drive. After creation,
Windows Explorer will show an extra drive and container file on
your hard drive on which will be kept information from created drive.
Folder Drive û tool is used for creating an extra drive without
creating more partitions on the hard drive of your computer. This
tool uses a folder as a basis for the extra drive and serves for
making access to frequently used folders of your computer more easy.
After creation, Windows Explorer will show an extra drive and container
on your computer will appear extra drive which will show the content of
the selected folder.
RAM Drive û tool is used for creating an extra drive without creating
more partitions on the hard drive of your computer. This tool uses RAM
