Liberkey ia a great program which is a collection of 200+ useful portable windows Software. This includes grouping of various popular freeware. The software is split into three different sets – Basic (28 softwares) , Standard (106 softwares) , and Ultimate (all 200+ softwares).
There Liberkey offers 2 kinda of uses, Local use and Portable use.
The software are listed in categories like Audio, CD/DVD, Education, File management, Internet, Graphics, Networking, Office, System utilities, video etc.
The list of software include TagScanner, Audacity, ImgBurn, Paint.net, Firefox, Chrome, Pidgin, Filezilla, Stickies, Open Office, Notepad++, Ccleaner, Revo Uninstaller, VLC media player and many more applications.
The best feature of Liberkey is its size. It is very small for the number of software it offers. The GUI of the software is good and all the applications are neatly arranged for easy navigation.
Other features like “associate file extensions” allows users to launch any file whether from a directory or drive without compatibility problems.
You can download the application without registering but it is recommended to register as you will have a chance to instantly update their Liberkey software by automatically downloading any of the new add-ons through the internet.
So, why download 250+ applications if you are getting them in one small pack.
Also check out Carry your computer in a USB drive with Mojopac, which is another software of the same kind.
I was honestly amazed with how well this blog was done, beautiful layout, professional writing, great job! 🙂
Hello,
I’m a huge fan of portable applications. I have tried portableapps.com, codysafe, lupopensuite and winpenpack but never heard about LiberKey (seen today in “Related posts:” of your article “20 Best And Essential Software Programs For Windows 7, Vista and XP”) . Thank you for sharing Prasanth Chandra !
I’m a winpenpack user but i will try LiberKey.
About the comment of Nelson. I like the spirit of open source applications but i don’t like the behavior of portableapps.com. I have read in their forum, that codysafe is illegal, lupopensuite is illegal, winpenpack is illegal and they said that LiberKey is illegal.
So all alternatives to portableapps.com are illegal ??
As posted on MakeUseOf:
It should be noted that liberkey illegally packages software. They ripped of portableapps.com and used all their code and their launchers without providing credit or source code for over a year.
They’re currently violating the mozilla trademark guidelines since they’re doing all the mozilla apps without permission. They’re violating the gpl and lgpl on all apps they provide. They’re packaging chrome and other apps without permission in violation of their eula. All their launchers are closed source and may do bad things. Their menu program is just asuite with a different theme (the exact same one used by winpenpack and lupopensuite). The file associations are done using cafe which wasn’t written by them either and can be used with portableapps.com, winpenpack, lupo, etc.
Liberkey didn’t actually create anything themselves. They’re just ripping off everyone else’s work.
