Capture Area is something people often need, capturing a screen is a two finger option but then that may include other things that you do not want so you then need to use a third party package to remove them and sometimes this action can take several minutes especially if you do not do it that often.Ĭapture Screen and Capture Window also can be handled in Parallels Desktop.Ĭlean Drive can often save space to allow things to run faster but I always say if space is available let it stay.Ĭlose Apps I often get friends say Windows is so slow, the technical person will suggest more memory but often opening a Notebook will void a warranty and over time people just keep adding extra items which often load when you start sometimes finding how to stop them loading is difficult so this tool will let you choose what to close.Ĭonvert Video is a tool that for the occasional video user can save hours as there are numerous video formats an expert can do it quickly but it would take me a while as I do not do it often.ĭo Not Disturb is something we all need when working to a deadline so turn this on and those annoying messages have to wait.ĭo Not Sleep in a way is the opposite of the previous item as there are times when you are waiting for a message and if your PC has a sleep or hard disk shutdown it may not get through and this keeps everything up and running without you having to press a key every thirty minutes or so.ĭownload Audio or Download Video is something more of us do but there are still people who do not and this tool will do it and best of all let you know where it is, often people say I have downloaded it but I cannot find it.Įject Volume is potentially something we all should use as if that memory stick was being accessed when you pulled it from the drive damage to its contents can occur yes Windows does have a tool to eject safely but do you use it or even do you know where to find it.Įnergy Saver is something that you can use on those occasions when you need an hour more without your power supply to hand or better still just to improve the length of time between plugging your notebook in.įind Duplicates is a tool that can save a lot of space and possible save a red face if you present the half-finished version that you loaded by mistake.
