ServiWin utility displays and provides access to controls for a list of installed drivers and services on your system. For some, a variety of information is displayed such as file description, version, product name, company that created the driver file and more. The program allows the stop, start, restart, pause and continue function of a service or driver, as well as changing the startup type of service or driver (automatic, manual, disabled, boot or system).

A list of services and drivers can be saved to file or a view HTML report of installed services/drivers can be opened in your default browser.

CloseAll (aka Close All Windows) helps you to quickly close all running applications. The program brings up a window with running applications, lets you select apps you want to close (by default all apps are checked) and click OK. CloseAll functions just as if you were pressing the close button for each running app, bringing prompts about closing a program as normal (e.g. "Do you want to save before closing").

The program is ideal for moving from one application set to another such as from photo edition to office work or video production.

Quick Config is a powerful and convenient tool aimed at saving or changing various settings to a custom profile. This is useful for resetting any changes to a single computer or for multiple computers that all need to have similar network, sound, or video options. The program will work as a very basic backup system for listed system settings (saved to its own XML file) that can then restore a machine or be transferred to another computer.

Available changes include setting local and network shares printers, sound scheme and volume, registry entries, services, run specific programs, change browser and email defaults. Changes can be applied in part (on each section select "apply now") or in whole (from the main window).

Ifactor computes the prime factors for any given number. The program can factor large integers, but the practical limit is an integer in the trillions (15 digits). For example the number 999,999,999,999,999 will take about a minute for the program to factor. While you can enter numbers with more than 15 digits, the factorization will take a very long time.

Folderico allows you to change the default icon of any folder. It performs this feat by creating a desktop.ini file in the chosen folder that points to the desired icon (also automatically created) so that Windows Explorer will render the folder icon differently. Folderico does not need to be running for the new folder icon to be displayed, and the changes are sticky even when the hard disk or memory stick is plugged into another machine.
