@siegfried: I confirm your findings, even after adding a "configdir=" key with a relative path.

I'm not sure the program isn't portable like that, but it sure isn't stealth. In my defense, the method I mentioned was working in prior versions (see above). I posted the issue in KiTTY's forum: http://www.9bis.net/kitty/?action=forum&id=0653 ... :(

BTW, this update (and the lack of changelog thereof) is probably caused by a version and code synch with PuTTY, which was prompted by a newly found vulnerability patch:

"2015-11-07 PuTTY 0.66 released, fixing a SECURITY HOLE
PuTTY 0.66, released today, fixes a security hole in 0.65 and before: vuln-ech-overflow."

I have been unable to upgrade Kitty since version 0.73.2.13, on W10 Pro 64-bit v1909. I get a 'This app can't run on your PC' error message. Anyone else having this issue?

AdrianK_IT on 2020-05-19 11:44

a. I have discovered there now is a version of Kitty v0.73.2.16 in Portable Apps format (https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/kitty-portable) and
b. Bizarrely, it works perfectly!

The publisher seems to have pulled the new release and is serving the 11.0.53254 release from December for both standard and portable downloads even though the main download page still shows 11.0.55321 as the current version.

JohnTHaller on 2016-02-18 17:49

And now it's updated.

dmiranda on 2020-12-18 00:39

Theoretically, 14.2 should work in XP, but it is hit and miss. The version that still works always is 13.13

@ vmars316: Alternate (Data) Streams are a data structure for holding additional structured data within a file in addition to the main data.
The Windows NTFS file system allows so-called Alternate Data Streams (ADS). With this function, data can be stored invisibly tied by the user to a file.

goodsignal on 2016-10-17 17:54

Dropbox had a bug a while back (https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Syncing-and-uploads/com-dropbox-attributes/m-p/63351) and polluted every file with an alternate data stream. Any copy action thereafter from our NTFS drive to a thumb drive (usually FAT32) was interrupted by a warning, "Are you sure you want to copy this file without its properties?" Very annoying! AlternateStreamView quickly and easily fixes the problem, as discovered here (http://superuser.com/questions/814312/is-it-possible-to-remove-the-are-you-sure-you-want-to-copy-this-file-without-it)

I thought streams were small bodies of water that flow through the forest, sorry couldn't resist :) This really software really is helpful in finding and seeing data that was cleverly concealed until using this. Thanks for some helpful software another hit from Nirsoft, keep em coming please.

IMPasswordDecryptor v2.1

lwc on 27 Jan 2023
  • 1MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 2 Dec 2010
  • Suggested by guinness

IMPasswordDecryptor is able to instantly recover stored passwords from most popular instant messengers. Functional on Google Talk, MSN Messenger, AIM, Digsby, Trillian, Pidgin, Miranda, Mebo, and more.

Note:

  • The program only works if the user opts to save or remember the password so that the username and password are stored on the system. Rest assured though most messengers have an auto-login feature that requires the user account information including the saved password for subsequent logins.
  • The program later (in v3.0) changed its name to Messenger Password Decryptor), but the main website download link has switched to an encrypted installer instead of a ZIP there, thus linking to Softpedia.

Most of the messengers have the auto-login feature which requires the user account information including password to be saved for subsequent logins. If user opts to save or remember the password then the username and password are stored on the system in proprietary format.

Back4Sure v3.7.8

Ennovy on 19 Jan 2023
  • 6MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 5 Jun 2022

Back4Sure is a feature-rich backup solution for typical backup use. The program can make a backup to hard-disk, USB drive or network and can also be compressed using high or low compression settings to a ZIP or 7-zip file of various compression levels, as well as encrypted for security.

Other features include filters to backup or exclude specific file types, a cleanup mode to remove old archives, and creation of one or multiple zip files (separated by directory structure). Backups are saved by directory structure either inside the archive or inside the directory for easy restoring. Users can also use multiple settings profiles, or "job" files.

what you should know:
Cleanup is optional - it is very close related to an incremental backup.
Using this you have to select the same Target Directory as before to backup only changed files and to delete files on the backup that have been deleted on the original file system as well (the latter one is the actual Cleanup).

Hope it helps ;)

romulous on 2015-01-11 06:52

It's a crying shame that you can only backup folders with this tool, and not individual files within those folders (yes, I know you can set filters, but unless you know in advance what files you want from each folder, this is not practical to use).

"Runs on: Win7 / Win8 / Win10": it does not. I could not get any of the versions from 12 to 14 to run on my Windows-8 laptop.

Today, I came across this note:
"Beeftext uses the Qt framework that drop support for Windows 7 and Windows 8 with the release of Qt 6. Beeftext 11.1 is the last version to run on Windows 7 and Windows 8 (all variants)."
