Spybot was once a pioneer and staple, a "Must have" program. Not any more. Based on distant past use, I wanted to give it a go. It was a minor disaster. It is way, way too aggressive in removing things. It starts off wanting to remove everything (defaults to remove all), including Windows staple recent files, logs, and contents. There is a menu of sorts, but it is clumsy, disorganized, unclear, and hard to use. I thought I'd unchecked everything I wanted to keep, but within minutes of running Spybot, I had problems such as program's "recent file lists" being wiped out and other issues to broad to list. There is supposed to be an "undo quarantine" that I could not get to work, so I lost it all and spent a lot of time trying to restore lost data. It is a shame a once good program has fallen this far. Hard to use, bad results.

This software protects and monitors changes to your registry and system files on Windows. It has saved me lots of time and effort with foistware and other unwanted system changes made by certain programs. It offers a registry backup facility which backs up your entire registry every 28 days and retains the last 15 copies. This has also saved me when I rather over-zealously tried to remove GotoMyPC from my computer. In terms of resource usage and intrusiveness, you will barely notice it's there, especially once you have exempted certain alerts from coming up after your initial deployment. Excellent and well recommended.

I have been using this for years. This is for power users. It is a bit tricky to install but once you get this launcher and all of the utilities installed it is awesome! It can be used to install both the NirSoft and the Microsoft Sysinternals suite of utilities. Many of these utilities will trigger security warnings but this is because the small applications are VERY powerful and could be installed by hackers and used nefariously. The warnings are there as an overabundance of caution. If you are a power user then this launcher and the utilities it supports is a MUST have program!

The program told me that my video card wouldn't support DirectX12. It most emphatically DOES support Directx12. There were other errors as well (can't remember them all off the top of my head though.) I removed the program and will probably use the official Microsoft "PC Health Check" application instead.

Many features especially the syncing features simply do not work well enough to even make them features. It tales forever to sync notes to google or onedrive and usually it bombs out. I find that I spend more time waiting and trying to fix stuff that actually using it. If you do not want to sync and only use it as a standalone application then its good. I've been trying this for literally years.

This is a nice crm. However, it is very slow and does not offer much in the way of sync capability. Seems to be run by a solo programmer. I even paid for more memory on my laptop but it didn't speed up the application.

The author has made many changes to this program in recent years, and it now is as powerful and capable as any paid editor that is available. When I first started using it a few months ago, I found a couple of bugs in obscure settings that I use... when I reported these bugs, the author responded within a day or two, and fixed the bugs immediately!! You won't find a more responsive company than this one...

I remember first using this on my XP laptop. Worked great then and it works great now under w10. Menu's are very easy to understand, quick selection, then enable the task and your done. It has a small memory foot print, does not rely on .NET or other libraries to get in the way.

We have been using UltraVNC at work (non-profit hospital with 600+ installs) for several years. This release, 1.3.4, is one of the most stable releases yet. This gives IT the ability to remote into any of the company PCs on the local LAN and take control. Work is done in 60 seconds that would take 20 minutes to put on PPE, walk to the station, do the work, return to the IT office and remove PPE.

Thank You Dan! This is the best programme I ever used to sort my huge numbers of digital photos! I solely bought an Elgato Stream Deck XL to use PhotoSift at the fullest! I'm so happy that I stumbled over it, here at Snapfiles! Thanks again and my best regards, Bengt

Version 13.99 shows apparently all of the entries that match a search of "upd" in the services listing. The newest version only shows a few of those services listings, and none that match that search term.

I loved this program when it was first released and was really freeware. Now it is limitedware. The free version places a watermark on each image transferred by the program. That is not freeware. This review replaces my original review of all praises. I no longer recommend the current version of this program.

I bought the dictionary bundle (99) over a year ago. It lacks many secondary definitions, and then charges 10 for an update. Since this repeats as it adds words and meanings, it's more like a subscription than an outright buy. Its organization for use calls for extra steps because it relies on a set of sources, instead of presenting a single page array.

I spent half an hour struggling to get the Windows reader to use the UK English reader. I suppose it required a restart, but sheesh! Plus Balabolka has much more flexibility. I was able to make the voice a bit less robot-like. My mailbox has been filling up because it is becoming increasingly harder for me to read onscreen. Now I can listen to the news as it comes in. Thank you so much.

I have used this for 3 months and no Win 10 updates have occurred which were ruining my sound system . Previously I had to reinstall win 10 3 times as the sound was ruined shortly afterwards by updates which I could not reverse.. Everything has worked well since installing StopUpdates10

Quite a lot of editing options. Extensive amount of tools. No installation required. Very clear interface, so easy to work with and very fast. Freeware, no ads. I have tried many programs but PhotoDemon is really great. I am quite impressed with this fantastic program

I used doPDF for years; it was easy to use, and very configurable. Sadly, in recent versions (around V8 or so), it has become a sales tool for their paid version, called NovaPDF, and it pops up annoying reminder windows regularly; every time it loads (at boot), and every time user invokes it to save something. I ultimately decided that it just wasn't that important to me any more.

I was using another application to perform directory printing but I found that DirPrintOK has a bit more options and looks great. I found the interface easy to use which allows you to select all field data or just a couple. You can rearrange the field names in the order you want which is common but like the ability to drag and drop functionality. I had issue with directory printers not seeing the Network Drives and DirPrintOK had not issues with that. I was impressed that you can output to file types like: txt, csv, xls. html, doc. The output file has headers which most don't apply which is a nice bonus. Last cool feature is that it has a portable version. I love having tools that I can put onto my PortableBootUSB and being able to run a program without installation.

I'm really very happy to use this utility. You can carry around your URL database with you. It features have improved nicely as you can verify your URLs to see if they link is dead or is alive which can help keep your database up-to-date and cleaned up. You can launch any URL to any browser. It's easy to navigate and move around in the interface. The only thing I would like to see if the export function as HTML. Currently it only does XML and CSV. If you happen to have stored your bookmarks from a system that not longer exist and want to export those bookmarks you will loose the structure because the XML and CSV are flat file outputs. They do reference the folder path where they came from but you would have to reconstruct the structure from the information provided. So with that slight improvement it will be the boom!

This utility has come a long way and has made editing the registry easier as in finding items, listing your changes, ability to backup the registry, Undo/Redo changes, and so much more. This give me a lot of confidence that if you make a mistake you can change things back or restore from a backup. Windows regedit does not give you any recovery options unless you had backed up the registry stores prior too. Check out all the features that this utility has to offer. I'm loving this utility plus it's portable as well so you can put this on your TechTools USB stick. I give it, Two-thumbs Up!
