Hello, I really miss a librarian, as anyone I believe... And I need to manage easily the huge collection of rigs I downloaded and archived on my PC.
It's easy to get lost when You have thousands of rigs available.
I'm testing right now a solution who came to my mind, and that I think to be helpful to categorize and select the rigs I collected; I would like to share it with You and have Your opinion.
I downloaded and installed a free software called "Agent ransack", used to find files in a disk quickly and easily. You can find it here:

This small software has the capability to do a search even within the CONTENT of the files, not only within the names.
For the time being I tested it with a pen drive where I exported my Kemper rigs; I found it helps a lot to make specific researches with keywords as it analizes all the tags of the rig (including comments, cabinet tags and so on).
For example, if You have rigs on PC and want to find a good marshall jtm rig,You just have to type "marshall" AND "jtm" in the file content field of the software and it will find all the rigs with these specific tags. You can therefore copy and paste them in a pendrive and import them into the kemper.
You can also use this utility to categorize and archive the rigs.
Tell me what You think... could it work at least untill a librarian will be released ?
