Discretely Copy Files From Computer To USB or External Drive

If your working on a project or document and you want to instantly grab them into your USB after you finish working then USB Grabber is the tool for you. It is an opensource utility that can grab any files in background without going through series of questions. It is more a file copier that sits on the taskbar (which you can hide easily for privacy) rather than a backup tool. To use it is simple, just copy the USB Grabber executable on your USB drive, plug the USB in any computer and run the application. From the main interface, hit the Grab button to initiate the copy process.



Before start using the app, you should set the necessary configuration. By default it will attempt to grab all files and you wouldn't want that specially if you have a pretty large disk. Personally I find this application useful if you need to grab specific file/s with similar names. On my case, I was writing a documentation for migration project so I named all my doc files to something like "TOS_MIGRATION_XXX". For USB Grabber to work, I set the "Grab files with name:" field to "TOS_MIGRATION_" which made the app copy all related documents.

You can also use this app in a James Bond-Like mission where you have to copy the content of a target computer. There will be no popup messages, the application will copy all files secretly. Be careful not to remove the USB drive during the copy process or you'll get a corrupted data.

USB Grabber is also portable and no need for installation. It works on most Windows version. For this article, I tested it with Windows XP.
