In case it does not remembers sort order, you have to edit 2 lines in Everything.ini:

sort=Type

Everything v1.4.1.932

Cumulative detailed changelog: https://www.voidtools.com/Changes.txt

This is a great program. I've found very helpful tracking down misplaced or seemingly lost files.

When you click the download link, a page opens with the download, just un-check the "Use our download manager and get recommended downloads" box. You'll get the zip file that you want. My Avast keeps blocking the site/file so I just disabled. After download I checked using VirusTotal and comes up clean.

If you want load/save WebP under XP, DL v.0.5.0 -

Greenfish Icon Editor Pro 4.0

Oct 2, 2022

Greenfish Icon Editor Pro (GFIE Pro) is a powerful FREEWARE image editor, especially suitable for creating icons, cursors, animations and icon libraries.

Latest stable release (4.0):
Windows 64-bit (installer)
Requires Windows 7 or newer
Windows 64-bit (portable version)
Requires Windows 7 or newer

In order to use old version notes with the new 10.0a version you hve to UPGRADE from old version to the new 10.0a. You can NOT restore the working folder from a backup because v10.0a uses SQLITE.

I'm not convinced that the following instructions are sufficient:
How to extract:
1 Download the installer and install to the default folder.
2 Copy folder Stickies to your preferred place.
3 Uninstall the program.
4 Create an empty file called stickies.ini in the application folder.
5 Launch stickies.exe.

I think 4 should be:
4 Create two empty files called stickies.ini and stickies.db in the application folder.

@Pendrive: Thanks! I have verified your correction and updated the database entry.

spicydog yeah I have also not been able to find a download link for any version of Datetrac

Not at version 3.38

2 new features

Running multiple instances allowed if using individual data locations
You can now set a default advance notice in the INI file.

If you downloaded version 3.38, the help files (reminder-en.chm) has just been updated as of 2023-02-23. It had not been when the version was released a month ago.

For the Facebook-allergic crowd, might as well use directly the original Command-Line UPX engine:

Terse CLI simplicity:

upx  -l sample1.exe  (Checking whether PE is packed with UPX)
upx -d sample1.exe  (Decompressing an UPX-packed PE)
upx     sample2.exe  (Compressing a plain PE)


UPX engine additional pointers:

FUPX v2.5 seems to only support UPX 3.95 64-bit ( not 32-bit).

@gbrao
There was an error in the script creating the distribution files. It was my mistake, not a deliberate act.
I uploaded the corrected file FUPX_PORTABLE.7z to the server and now everything should be OK.
Hint: To set the 32-bit version of UPX, click the "Options" button on the toolbar. Then, on the "UPX version" list, select "3.95 32-bit" and click "Close".
Sorry for the inconvenience.

@smaragdus
I removed the "Facebook" button from the toolbar.

@robzuc: see 'What is "portable"' on the "about" page: https://www.portablefreeware.com/about.php Not leaving stuff behind is not "stealth" in the parlance here, and uTorrent works fine when moving from machine to machine and saves your settings.

After i extracted uTorrent.exe 3.5.5 with 7-zip in the extracted folder there are couple of .dll files. Are they needed? Can i delete them?

@Peter202:

No, only file you need is Carrier.exe renamed to uTorrent.exe
And created settings.dat

I'm having the same problem with another launcher, and horst explanation seems pretty accurate to me...

I have used this program for a long time and I really like it;
I have always used it to launch programs,
but recently I have been using it to launch shortcuts to folders
and 2 out of 3 times that I do it,it crashes explorer.

Has any one else had this happen?

Note: 2020-11-12, still 100% functional, VERY nice option at its size

- v2.26 (x86) is infact 86kb, if reduced to exe, its needed ini/chw files & help/readmes combined to 1 txt file.

- only 2 programs that "still function 100% as of posting date" exist:

- VNChelper, at 80kb is SUPER NICE, its hard to pick between Qsel and VNChelper, they differ only in UI & 6kb file size... but I'm going Qsel for same function and 6kb SAVED.

- Then Popsel are smaller at 74kb, which is from same author and is funcationally the same with no "window" section, just a minimalist "fly-out" menu like Linux's "flux or black box" menus

(all reducing size with same readme method and UPX compressed via lmza)

All 3: Qsel, VNChelper and Popsil are FANTASTIC byte for byte

my mistake, I was referring to registryfinder

@patrickdrd: please delete the erroneous version info, then.

This version (v2.50) doesn't acknowledge my regscanner.ini... Doesn't even create a new one either. Going back to the preview version works fine though.

@Cornflower, I`ve tried that but when you save in MemPad it doesn`t update the dropbox file, you have to export it again. No good.

This is another hidden gem. Does it take notes in a structured way? Does it encrypt its contents? Yes, but that is just the beginning... One may keep all its favorites and use MemPad as a launcher of sites (http:something.dom), applications (file:..\ProgramFolder\Program.exe - it even accepts relative paths), folders and much more. All in little more than 100 KBytes! Sheer Magic!
