I will attempt to post on application website but ...
"Always start minimized (To Tray)" option does not work.

I have not seen changes occur to the configuration file (AutoHideDesktopIcons.ini) for this setting.

I will also ask about command line option to start minimized.

Please note the immediate response of the developer.

This is a very nice and handy piece of software from a very prolific developer.

I have only seen first rate software from this developer.

freakazoid on 2013-12-02 00:03

Neat little app. Uses around 1.0 - 1.5MB RAM. GUI is a little ugly like all SoftwareOK apps, but you'll probably want to start this in the system tray and forget it! :)

17.0.1 Beta is now in Download section of web site.

avada on 2018-10-05 04:48

Slimjet is not portable to any useful degree. Don't even try it. I lost all of my extensions and (all?) settings, browsing session. (Bookmarks, history remained...)

I didn't even move it I just reinstalled Windows, then started it from the same place (same path) and it erased all that stuff... (I checked in the backup that the extension files are there...)

nima_amin on 2020-05-21 22:12

The problem avada describes still persists in version 26. I used Slimjet portable on my Windows 7 PC with no problems. In February I moved to a new PC with Windows 10, copied Slimjet from the old PC on a USB stick, and from there to the new PC , started it and all extensions and settings were gone. Only the profiles and bookmarks were kept.

Flashpeak's "support forum" unfortunatel doesn't give any support but keeps claiming if you copy the user folder from one version into the other it would work. Lie! Behaviour is the same as that described by avada and me above.

To make things worse: in version 26 it is no longer possible to print content as PDF using PDF-printers such as e.g. Adobe Acrobat or PDF Creator! Flashpeak claims to have no plans to fix that bug.

Looks like with 8.98 they've removed even more features from the previous 9.87 free version (detect well-known whitelisted libraries/blacklisted resources), funny they don't mention that in the changelog.

It is not stealth, it adds an uninstall entry and a pile of registry keys.

@Loreto: EMDB has been in our database since 2016 and there have been no other such reports.

I'd advise you to try to download from the homepage and check any executables through virustotal.com/ before posting any scant reports...

WizTree v4.14 Updated

Ennovy on 5 Jun 2023
  • 13MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 5 Jun 2023
  • Suggested by I am Baas

WizTree is a very fast disk space analyzer and search tool, scanning a single folder or your entire hard drive quickly and showing those files and folders using the most disk space. The program uses the NTFS Master File Table (MFT) feature in Windows to rapidly view files.

Note that this high-speed mode is limited to local, NTFS-formatted drives. The program must do a (much slower) scan of FAT-formatted or network drives for analysis.

I've posted in the forum about this issue. I'd like to know if anyone else is having this problem.

Just downloaded the latest portable version, and it asks for admin permission. That is a no no for me.
Looking at the manifest it says: AsInvoker, so i'm not sure why it would ask.

Seasoned Synwrite user that I am, I was not too enthusiastic about CudaText in the beginning. My mistake. Cudatext has all the features I have come to appreciate in Synwrite, if — and that's the catch here — if one is willing to spend time customizing the interface, intall plugins, adjust settings here and there. All of which is easy enough to do. Guess I was just too lazy to bother all those years.

Meanwhile however, I have made the transition, and I am very happy with it. Themes alone are worth it, settings are more accessible and easier to find and ajdust than in Synwrite. CudaText is well documented and highly customizable. I have set up my own dropdown menus and toolbars and I make heavy use of intext-bookmarks, an extremely useful feature that is rare to find in other editors.

Midas on 2023-02-13 09:33

@FileHandler: It would be helpful -- at least for me -- if you could document your findings and settings in CudaText's forum topic... TiA
