TrayCD

TrayCD is a small software application developed specifically for helping you automatically eject and close your CD-ROM using simple clicks.

Keep it on pen drives

This is a portable program which makes it an ideal candidate for being stored on USB flash drives or other devices. You can gain access to its features by simply opening the executable file because you do not have to go through an installation process.
In addition, you may run it without being an administrator. The tool does not leave entries on the target PC so you can get rid of it using a quick deletion task. It actually saves the configuration data on the storage device.

Unobtrusive running mode

TrayCD can be found running quietly in the system tray area without disturbing your work. The system tray plays a key role because it represents the place from where you can control the application’s features.
The program’s icon displayed in the system tray can be animated by making it spin. A help manual cannot be found in the package but you can set up the dedicated parameters on your own because they look highly intuitive.

How it works

The program gives you the possibility to double-click on the tray icon in order to automatically eject the CD-ROM. In addition, you can quickly close the CD-ROM.
Other important configuration settings worth being mentioned enable you to perform middle-clicks on the tray icon in order to toggle the second CD-ROM, automatically run the utility at Windows startup, look for updates, and open setup parameters via an INI file.
Tests have pointed out that TrayCD carries out a task quickly and without errors. It remains light on system resources so you can keep it running in the background without worrying that it burdens the overall performance of the computer.

Final thoughts

All in all, TrayCD makes it really easy for you to control your CD-ROM using automatic actions, can be handled by beginners and professionals alike.
