Bedfordshire, United Kingdom (March 2026) 5N6 LTD today announced the launch of Questract, a free native macOS application designed to help users consolidate files from aging storage media into a single organized master archive. The software is now available as a free download for personal use on the Mac App Store.
Questract addresses a common problem faced by individuals and creative professionals: years of files scattered across external hard drives, USB sticks, SD cards, and legacy storage devices. The application scans connected media, identifies important files, and automatically organizes them into a structured master library.
With a single workflow, Questract can locate and copy files such as photos, videos, documents, and music from multiple sources, placing them into categorized folders within a central archive. The process helps users recover forgotten files and preserve valuable digital assets that may otherwise remain buried on old drives.
Key features include:
Intelligent media scanning to identify files across connected storage devices
Automated categorization into structured folders such as Images, Videos, Documents, and Music
File verification hashing to ensure integrity during transfers
Custom file-type filtering for targeted archiving workflows
Native macOS interface designed for simplicity and speed
Questract is built with a privacy-first architecture. All scanning and file processing occur locally on the user’s device, and the application does not collect or transmit any personal data or usage analytics.
“Many people have years of digital memories scattered across old drives and storage media,” said a spokesperson for 5N6 LTD. “Questract was created to make recovering and organizing those files simple. Plug in your old drives, run the scan, and let the software build a clean master archive automatically.”
The software is available free for personal use, with commercial licensing available separately for professional or business environments.
Questract supports files from a wide range of sources, including:
- External hard drives
- USB flash drives
- SD cards and memory cards
- Optical media
- Local folders and archives
Questract is available now as a free download on the Apple Mac App Store:
