Hello, we are glad to inform you that a new version of WinCatalog 2015 has been just released. The version number is 15.1
The new version brings improvements to the collection backup functionality: it now applies Zip compression to the backup copies of the collection files. The new feature requires .Net Framework 2.0 or higher, otherwise WinCatalog will use an ‘old’ backup method (copy and rename).
Bug fixed: now WinCatalog correctly finds files and folders when you search using Tags with “None of” condition applied. Dutch and Korean translations have been actualized.
To download WinCatalog 2015 version 15.1, please click here. You do not need to uninstall a previous version of WinCatalog. Just install the latest version over the existing one. The upgrade is free for everyone who own a license for WinCatalog 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015.

Hello, we’re glad to announce that a new update of our disk catalog software WinCatalog 2015 has been just released (version number is 15).
This is a maintenance update, it improves the scanning and updating speeds, especially for folders with a lot of files.
A new startup option was added: now you can choose if you wish to expand Tags, Locations and Contacts branches. Disabling this option helps WinCatalog to start faster (in case if you have a lot of tags in your collection).
The second new option improves scanning speed: you can tell WinCatalog to skip the calculation process and do not display the total number of files on the Scanning Progress dialog. Previously WinCatalog skipped the calculation of total number of files automatically for optical drives (CD, DVD, DVD-RW, Blu-ray, etc). Now you can turn it off for all types of drives. Enabling this option may give advantages not only for slow drives, but for regular HDD or even for SSD.
One more new feature allows you to set a timeout for processing files by external file processing modules. Now if it takes too long to process a file, WinCatalog will just skip it and move to the next one. The default value is 10 seconds (but for optical drives WinCatalog multiplies the value by 3).

**Updated on May 22, 2015: Czech, French, Portuguese (both Continental and Brazilian), Spanish and Swedish translations have been updated to the latest version. The version number changed to 15.01. If you use WinCatalog in one of these languages, please download the update. If you don’t, you may just skip it. **
One more: Polish translation has been updated, version number changed to 15.02.

Hello, we’re glad to announce that the new version of our disk catalog software WinCatalog 2015 (version 14) has been released.
The new update adds an ability to grab metadata and cover images from electronic books. WinCatalog 2015 supports the following ebook formats: ePub, iBook, Fb2 and Mobi (.epub, .ibook, .fb2, .mobi, .prc, .azw and .azw3 extensions). This functionality requires .Net Framework version 2.0 or newer. Absence of .Net Framework does not affect on WinCatalog functionality: only on the ability to process ebooks.
The speed of processing RAW files has been significantly improved. Now WinCatalog can extract thumbnails and basic Exif tags from RAW files up to 3x times faster! An ability of extracting XMP metadata from RAW files is expected to be one of the next updates.
A significant issue of version 13.5 has been fixed: WinCatalog was not able to process archives and ISO files contents in some versions of Windows 7, Vista and XP. In Windows 8 and 8.1 it worked fine. Now it works in all versions of Windows as expected. If you use WinCatalog 13.5 in any Windows prior to Windows 8, the update is highly recommended for you.

Both types of licenses include the same features and allow installation on any number of computers per a license, but Personal license is restricted to non-commercial or educational use, only whereas Professional / Business license includes all types of use, including enterprise, professional and managed IT, non-profit and government use, plus priority technical and maintenance support.
In other words, if you plan to use WinCatalog at home, it is enough to buy a personal license. But if you want to use it at work or for your business, you should buy a professional license.
