ubSpawn is a small and simple application to manage an unlimited number of files and folders for quick access. It's especially suited for portable applications on USB drives or mobile mediums. ubSpawn is a "green" application, which basically means, that this program does not use the registry and does not modify the system in a way you don't like.

The program was inspired from the excellent program starter application PStart, so that users could switch easily to ubSpawn. In the future, ubSpawn will contain small helpers and some nice security features for working with portable applications on mobile drives more comfortable.
