Utilities, Share yours
A place to share and discover nifty utilities. Can be anything so long as it's purpose is useful.
The few things I'm using and now consider essential are: RBTray* or Trayit! Folder Marker (free)* or iColorFolder Tinyspell Unlocker And the more common: Rainelender (thanks Drain Bamaged) Rocketdock with Stacks Docklet http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/4...0208be1.th.jpg I am after a alternative to windows clipboard. Haven't had a proper look yet because as with everything there are so many around and many variations. Any recommendations? Edit: From now on please post like this so post are easy to see and don't get buried: Link in bold green text size 3. With a brief description. vB code List if you need it: http://www.fortress-forever.com/foru....php?do=bbcode Unlocker "Unlocker is an explorer extension that allows you with a simple right-click of the mouse on a file or folder to get rid of error message such as error deleting file or folder, cannot delete folder" |
You, sir, are welcome.
Apps I use: Objectdock, kinda like Rocketdock but different. Hott notes 4: this is a BILSS when you have a habit of forgetting stuff, and I have one! And I'm experimenting with Aston Shell, I'm trying to convert the entire desktop to look like the DODnetSystems menu in Crysis. That's about it, iColorFolder looks nice, might use it. |
Google Desktop w/ analog clock, scratch pad, Gmail, weather, 6 shortcuts and a recycle bin.
Suits me. |

Looks like you need a recovery cd a LOT.
Check out Hiren's Boot cd, that's a good one too. |
If it contains all that is listed, I'm impressed! I'm downloading the rar now.

TweakUI is a MUST for any windows system. The only GUI modification I use (if you can call it that) is Yahoo Widgets with simple CPU, RAM, and Bandwidth gauges. I have a few other widgets, but nothing I use often.
I've considered messing with some GUI mods, but most of them are either useless, clutter, or crazy window hacks that can cause stability issues. |
Good stuff guys.
