Pretty good post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your blog posts. To activate the Roku TV, it is fundamental to find the Roku link in the first place. As a matter of fact, the account you have on Roku will have definite information regarding the devices you own and the channels you install. Here are the methods to find the code from the Roku com link setup. For more information Visit https://www.roku-comlink.net/
I was a big fan of Altap Salamander. But for the last years, it doesn't seem to browse Windows network shares anymore. It just simply doesn't work. So it's of very little use to me now.
If I may clarify with you what's not downloading. Are you clicking on the link at the bottom of the current release box that's titles PowerToysSetup-0.17.0-x64.msi? I've attached a screen shot of the link. It's working for me now, if it doesn't work for you then all I can suggest is trying an earlier version.
I think so, the last version before MS, the Power Tool download at his site is 0.17.0,(latest) and handing it over to MS looks legit,, WFM fine, I don't need the whole package, already have Process Explorer, the only one I wish they would is improve is Desktops..even though Win 10 sorta has that.
Downloaded this 2 weeks ago and it really messed up my system. All screen icon lost their names completely. After several restarts some of the names came back but not all. Tried to uninstall via control panel. Finally used "Settings/Apps and Features/Uninstall" to get rid of it. Windows 10 v. 1909 April Update
Is there a way to add the PowerToys to a Win10 system other than going to Github?
I'd like to recommend it for my beloved ImageResizer to my in-laws who keep sending us 25+ MG images. But I can see them thinking that Github isn't a respectable source (sorry, but it's VERY geeky!).
I use the Microsoft launcher on my Android smartphone, and that launcher has a feature of presenting a new wallpaper every day. I guess the Bing wallpapers app will allow me to rotate wallpapers every day even if I choose not to use the MS launcher (thought I find the launcher a great combination of feature-richness and simplicity). Does anybody know whether the Bing wallpapers are the same as the daily wallpapers on the launcher? Do they pull from a common pool of pictures or are they completely different?
The link to GitHub is to the download page. There's a box at the top of the page with the Release version in blue. Under the blue Release version is a link to download Powertoys, it has an msi extension. It's very easy to see. I linked there so that no one has look at anything on Github other than where the download link is.
If that doesn't work for you, you can download it and and then upload it to a file service like Firefox Send. Send them the link so they can download it from there. The file can be downloaded by anyone who has the link. There are other services to share large files, Firefox Send is the one I use. You can use any browser to download the file. Firefox is not required.
thank you for this list and all the suggestions..
I think, I start being accustomed to the isolation exactly when it's coming to an end.
But, the platforms you
ve mentioned are interesting and useful anyway ~
I know several tools from the list, but I can see there's no mspy mentioned here, why?
Hear a lot about this app and even considering trying it myself. Seems like a relevant parental control tool these days, doesn't it?

There's a new kid on the block called Bulk Crap Uninstaller (in short BCUninstaller or BCU). Any comments/reviews on that? It's totally free and can be found at: https://www.bcuninstaller.com/
I can't remember whether it's okay to include the link to free software, so pardon me if that's a no-no.
Quite 'clunky' to use and hard to find the "free" version. Too many functions missing in "Free" version. Too much pressure to move to the paid version.
I think this one should be taken off the list altogether.
They are the same. But, for some reason, the bing image sometimes won't change on android. An information box states the image is copyright protected and cannot be used as wallpaper. It then keeps the previous days image.
I just came across STDU Viewer which has all the features you could want in a lightweight PDF viewer, even though it is some years since a new version has been published. Unfortunately at the time of writing, the installer links on the developer's website (http://www.stdutility.com) point to an old version (1.6.361) which has a bug. The latest version (1.6.375) is available in portable form on the developer's website. The installer can be found at https://www.softpedia.com/get/Office-tools/Other-Office-Tools/STDU-Viewer.shtml
great apps I didn't know about. thanks. Here are some more great apps I think you should mention in your article https://nektony.com/blog/top-10-best-free-utilities-for-mac
I am running Window 7 on some of my machines. Obviously I only want to use free alternatives at this time since my main OSs are Windows 8.1 and Linux. I found that Defender is still updated on 7 but it is not an Antivirus solution. Antivirus is still needed. As of May of 2020 I found that Avast has added quite a few nag screens as well as making my 7 machine take an extra 3 to 4 minutes to boot up. I will update if I find an alternate program that is more friendly for Win 7.
Right up my alley Rhiannon!

It hasn't rolled out to my gmail account either as of today, they said it would take a few weeks to get to everyone. Turning chat off leaves Meet options in the left sidebar. It hid the large notification that was blocking part of the screen.
Hmmm that's interesting. I logged into Gmail just now, I went from the Inbox to Settings, no Chat and Meet. Went back to the Inbox, went back to Settings, and Chat and Meet is now there.

Thanks! Is that the same program? Their description says it's based on his program. Either way it's a good program.

Just checked and the Android app is not available in Canada.
This seems ok.

I could not find enough information on this.
Check out BingSnap. What's your opinion?
They are the same. But, for some reason, the bing image sometimes won't change on android. An information box states the image is copyright protected and cannot be used as wallpaper. It then keeps the previous days image.

Very useful. Thank you!
This worked for one of my gmail accounts as the option to "hide meet" was there.
My other account did not have that option and choosing "Chat off" did not remove the Meet option on the sidebar.
Thanks for the info. I got halfway there anyways.
It hasn't rolled out to my gmail account either as of today, they said it would take a few weeks to get to everyone. Turning chat off leaves Meet options in the left sidebar. It hid the large notification that was blocking part of the screen.
Hmmm that's interesting. I logged into Gmail just now, I went from the Inbox to Settings, no Chat and Meet. Went back to the Inbox, went back to Settings, and Chat and Meet is now there.

Would like to have a darker, maybe blue background instead of white.
Don't play with graphics much, but it shouldn't be that hard.
I checked the account with no "hide meet" option yesterday and today it is there.
Again thanks for this info. One less annoyance.
You're welcome. It should be rolled out to all by early to mid-June, if what I'm seeing is correct.
I think so too. I prefer darker backgrounds for wallpapers so desktop icons are easier to see.
Rhiannon I think you recommended this?? https://www.remove.bg/
I managed a night sky in the background..

I did recommend that, and that's great you managed a night sky. :)
