Run programs automatically from an external drive

USB Runner is an external solution that makes it possible to auto run programs from a USB Flash Drive.

Runner allows you to launch USB applications in an external memory as a pen-drive when connected to a computer or even when you insert a disc into the drive reader. The programs that launch stay in the external memory while USB Runner runs discreetly on your computer. As soon as you connect a USB stick, USB Runner recognises the program and launches it immediately. In theory, this adds a whole new dimension of portability to your applications allowing you to carry around programs such as games, browsers, anti-virus checkers etc. However, obviously you can't fit all EXE files on your average USB stick. It really depends on the size of your external device but this program potentially has the power to give you a more mobile, and safer experience by running programs in the external memory.

A great solution for those who need to take their program wherever they go although it won't work with every program and you're limited by your USB size.

Softonic

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
