You\u2019re not alone. Modern burning programs are mostly very overweight, packed with unnecessary functions which you\u2019ll probably never use.<\/p>\n<p>If your needs are very simple, though, there are some effective freeware burning apps around, and <a title=\"Folder SimpBurn\" href=\"http:\/\/www.downloadcrew.com\/article\/29871-folder_simpburn_10_beta\" >Folder SimpBurn<\/a> is a particularly straightforward example.<\/p>\n<p>The program arrives as a small download (560KB). And it\u2019s portable, so easy to use just about anywhere: just unzip it and launch Folder_SimpBurn.exe.<\/p>\n<p>Folder SimpBurn has all its options on a single dialog, and this makes it very straightforward to use. At a minimum all you need to do is choose your optical drive, select a folder which you\u2019d like to burn, click Burn Option &gt; Start Burn, and then watch as your disc is created (CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays are supported, as both single and multisession discs).<\/p>\n<p>If you need more control, then it\u2019s also possible to set the maximum burning speed and the disc name, as well as choosing the file system (your options are ISO9660, Joliet, UDF, or Joliet\/ UDF).<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s some ISO support, too. Click &#8220;Burn Option&#8221; and you\u2019ll find tools to save your selected folder as an ISO file, or burn an existing ISO file to disc.<\/p>\n<p>And other small touches include a &#8220;verify&#8221; option, some disc erase tools, and an &#8220;Info&#8221; box which displays your disc burner\u2019s capabilities.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-137903 alignleft\" title=\"folder simpburn\" src=\"http:\/\/betanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/folder-simpburn-300x192.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"192\" \/>It\u2019s not all good news. The interface is a little unconventional, with buttons which open menus; it really needs a little documentation (even the German language-only manual doesn\u2019t tell you much); and the &#8220;Add to context&#8221; menu, which supposedly lets you create discs directly from Explorer, didn\u2019t work for us.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Folder SimpBurn\" href=\"http:\/\/www.downloadcrew.com\/article\/29871-folder_simpburn_10_beta\" >Folder SimpBurn<\/a> does well at its core tasks, though, reliably burning folders to disc and creating ISO images with ease. And if you\u2019d like to be able to do this from just about any PC, without having to install anything, then the program should serve you very well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Photo Credit: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/gallery-70895p1.html\">Kachan Eduard<\/a>\/<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/\" >Shutterstock<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.betanews.com\/~ff\/bn?a=EZhw9OXYpUE:NjhHyDD1Fyg:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/bn?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.betanews.com\/~ff\/bn?a=EZhw9OXYpUE:NjhHyDD1Fyg:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/bn?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/bn\/~4\/EZhw9OXYpUE\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you tired of bloated disc burning suites?
