The WinApps CD contains a huge library of useful PC files. It is constantly kept up-to-date. Each version is named WinAppsyddd where y is the last digit of the year (currently = 0) and ddd is the julian date (000 thru 366).
Bootable: The WinApps CD is bootable to a DOS prompt independent of the hard drive. The optical drives are supported in this DOS boot.

Current Winapps ISO File:
<http://winapps.kca-tx.org/>

The ISO file is an image of a WinApps CD. Download the WinAppsyddd.ISO and double-click on it. Popular CD burning programs (Roxio and Nero) will want to go directly to the CD burning mode. A free CD/DVD burning program that does ISO files is CDBurnerXP for Win 2000/03/08/XP/Vista/7 <http://majorgeeks.com/CDBurnerXP_d4242.html>.

Saving on Flash Drive vs Burning CD:
Many users don't want to burn the ISO file to a CD. Instead, they drag-n-drop the downloaded ISO file onto 7Zip <http://www.7-zip.org/download.html>. Once unZIPped in 7Zip, they use 7Zip's Copy command to copy the individual files and folders directly to a USB Flash Drive. [Note that the Flash Drive is not bootable as is the burned CD.]
