Been looking for a desktop program like this. It uses virtually the same interface as e.ggtimer.com, which I've been using for while. |

The built-in utilities allow the user to run a given program with arguments, copy/move to a folder, copy path, UNC path, Internet path, name or content to clipboard, view or change attributes, split/join a file, register/unregister a DLL, find and replace, advanced rename, synchronize two folders, delete locked files, create symbolic link, calculate and verify SHA/MD5 checksums, shred files, change folders icon, and many more.
Supports 32 or 64-bit automatically. Note that this program has gone shareware so we are linking to the last freeware version (thanks billon) and Userfriendly).

I could have sworn I installed MiniBin correctly for portable use, however months later I saw it created a Start Menu folder. Nothing in the registry, however so it could just be a mistake on my end.

Works in Windows 10 64bit. To change icon(s), substitute the icon(s) you prefer for the icon(s) in one of the folders, rename 1.ico to 7.ico names as required. Only use number indicator, so changed icons from zip file from Num_on or off to 0.ico and 1.ico, left others in cube folder as is. If caps lock,etc. is on, original cube folder icons are used. |
