Software for a USB Flash Disk
- You can install this type of software directly onto your USB drive and use it almost wherever you plug in your computer. Some types of software include office applications, games, graphic editors and instant messaging. These programs are built specifically to run on a USB drive without taking up too much space.
- Most USB flash drives do not come with an option to protect your data. You can use encryption software to impose a password on your data. When buying encryption software, ensure that the program works specifically for USB flash drives.
- Some software can allow you to recover a password from an encrypted drive or data from a corrupted one. When buying software, check to ensure that the program will accomplish what you want and that it works with a USB drive. While many programs will, some may not.
