Defraggler
Beskrivning på utgivarens webbplats: It differs from other defrag tools on the market, by enabling you to quickly and simply defrag the files you want to, without having to process the whole drive. Simply run it, select the file and defragment in seconds. No more struggling with the Windows defragmentation tool!
- Defrag Individual Files
- Defrag Free Space
- Compact and Portable
- Vista Support
- Locate Files on the Drive
- Freeware [22/6 2009]
Kommentar: Defraggler är mycket enkel att använda. Man klickar på Analyse och får efter några sekunder fram en lista med alla fragmenterade filer. Man väljer vilka filer man vill defragmentera, t.ex. de mest fragmenterade eller alla. Man klickar på Defrag Checked och väntar på att defragmenteringen ska bli klar. Det bli den på MYCKET kortare tid än om man använder diskdefragmenteraren i Windows. Även om man valt att defragmentera alla filer.

It's never been simpler—just give EclipseCrossword a list of words and clues, and it does the rest. In seconds, you'll have a crossword puzzle with just the words you want. EclipseCrossword has been downloaded a million times by people just like you. [28/7 2008]

ESET Smart Security
Beskrivning på den svenska återförsäljarens webbplats: ESET Smart Security Innehåller Antivirus, Antispam, Antispyware och Brandvägg och bygger på det prisbelönta NOD32 Antivirus och är en helt integrerad säkerhetslösning med ett enkelt grafiskt gränssnitt med Hjälp-avsnitt och enkelt att installera och starta. Mycket resurssnålt och segar inte ned datorn som andra antivirusprogram. [22/6 2009]
Kommentar: Trots att alla program på den här sidan egentligen ska vara gratis tar jag ändå med ESET Smart Security, som 22/6 2009 kostade 1.016 kr för en licens på 2 år vid köp från jsk.nu. Jag har använt säkerhetsprogram från ESET i flera år och är hittills mycket nöjd. När man väl installerat dem märker man dem inte på annat sätt än att man inte drabbas av virus etc.

Registry Defrag/Compact
Beskrivning på utgivarens webbplats: During the normal operation of a Windows system, registry data is constantly being written to and removed from the registry. Over time this data becomes scattered within the registry file and when information is deleted from the registry holes are left which fragment the data within the registry. Registry compacting optimizes your registry by removing gaps and wasted space, thus improves the whole system performance. [21/6 2009]
Kommentar: Snabbt, lättanvänt program, som känns pålitligt (om programmet också ÄR pålitligt vågar jag inte uttala mig tvärsäkert om). [21/6 2009]

Revo Uninstaller
Beskrivning på utgivarens webbplats: Revo Uninstaller helps you to uninstall and remove unwanted programs installed on your computer even if you have problems uninstalling and cannot uninstall them from "Windows Add or Remove Programs" control panel applet.
Revo Uninstaller is a much faster and more powerful alternative to "Windows Add or Remove Programs" applet!
With its advanced and fast algorithm, Revo Uninstaller analyzes an application's data before uninstall and scans after you uninstall an application. After the program's regular uninstaller runs, you can remove additional unnecessary files, folders and registry keys that are usually left over on your computer. Even if you have a broken installation, Revo Uninstaller scans for an application's data on your hard disk drives and in the Windows registry and shows all found files, folders and registry keys so you can delete them.
With its unique "Hunter mode", Revo Uninstaller offers you some simple, easy to use, but effective and powerful approaches to manage (uninstall, stop, delete, disable from auto starting) and to get information about your installed and/or running programs. [28/7 2008]

TXTcollector
Beskrivning på utgivarens webbplats: TXTcollector grabs all .txt files from the directory of your choice and combines them into a new (larger) text file. This can come in handy: I use TXTcollector myself to grab a CD full of readme's to enable me to read them all in one go. At work I use it to combine daily and weekly reports and to merge server backup logs. Some users find this application perfect for combining their network log files. Options/Features:
- Grabs all .txt files from a directory and combines them
- Puts directory-, file name and separator between each text file
- Possibility to add your own extensions and separators
- Popup list with files ready to be merged
- Able to recursively search directories
- Allows continuous merging (without Carriage Returns) [21/6 2009]
Kommentar: Otroligt snabbt program som jag skulle velat hitta för många år sedan. Jag behövde nyligen kombinera 253 .txt-filer om totalt 12 MB till en stor fil. Med TXTcollector tog detta ungefär 3 sekunder. [21/6 2009]

Unlocker
Beskrivning på utgivarens webbplats: Ever had such an annoying message given by Windows?
- Cannot delete Folder: It is being used by another person or program
It has many other flavors:
- Cannot delete file: Access is denied
- There has been a sharing violation
- The source or destination file may be in use
- The file is in use by another program or user
- Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use
Unlocker is the solution!
- Simply right click the folder or file and select Unlocker
- If the folder or file is locked, a window listing of lockers will appear
- Simply click Unlock All and you are done! [21/6 2009]
Kommentar: Klart bättre än andra liknande program jag provat. Med Unlocker kan man nämligen inte bara döda en eller flera processer som låser en fil eller mapp (d.v.s. stänga ner ett eller flera program) utan också låsa upp filen eller mappen utan att stänga ner något program. Med andra liknande program jag provat kan man göra det förra men inte det senare. [21/6 2009]

UTF-8 converter
Beskrivning på utgivarens webbplats: Solution to accents and weird characters issue in the backend for some languages. Just convert language file to utf-8 format. For exemple, for [the] French language, just convert [the] French file to utf-8 format. You can find a free tool which is really easy to use and does the job perfectly (UTF8_convert.exe). [21/6 2009]
Kommentar: Mycket smidigt och mycket snabbt program, som jag haft mycket nytta av. [21/6 2009]
