Torch

2021-04-03T00:00:00+02:00

If you’re a fan of the BitTorrent world, you will start loving Torch Browser because it comes with a built-in torrent downloader.

Torch’s media grabber tool can be used to download streaming videos and audio files from web pages. It appears that this top web browser, which also includes a download accelerator, is designed primarily for users who download stuff every day.

The browser can also play partially downloaded videos and torrents and also includes a music player that sources content from YouTube. Facebookphiles might find themselves interested in a feature called Torch Facelift, which can be used to change the theme of their Facebook profile.

You can easily mistake Torch for Chrome because it looks almost the same, and it is also a fast web browser like Chrome and Firefox. It supports your Google account login to sync browsing activity and other data between devices.

Vivaldi

2021-04-02T00:00:00+02:00

Vivaldi is a great browser with few downsides. It features impressive customization and access to Chrome’s vast library of extensions while also being fast and light on RAM consumption compared to other browsers. It includes quite a few handy features, too, such as notes, tab stacking and tiling and the ability to permanently pin websites to the sidebar.

When it comes to security and privacy, Vivaldi again receives top marks. It updates frequently and does a good job blocking malicious websites. It also collects little data on you as a user and presents a clear overview of which third-party services you need to disable if you want to maximize your privacy.

The only drawback to the browser is its lack of an iOS version. The developers have stated this is something they’re working on, but due to Apple’s stringent requirements for browsers on the platform, it will take some time to be released.

Features

Tab Management

Unique features give you full control of how you group and display browser tabs.

Customization

Tweak and tune every part of the browser to create your own unique experience.

User Interface

An adaptive interface lets you adjust the position, size and appearance of the browser's UI elements.

Navigation

Tools

An arsenal of built-in tools like Notes, Image Properties and more give you advanced functionality without sacrificing performance.

Process Explorer

2020-05-01T00:00:00+02:00

Ever wondered which program has a particular file or directory open? Now you can find out. Process Explorer shows you information about which handles and DLLs processes have opened or loaded.

The Process Explorer display consists of two sub-windows. The top window always shows a list of the currently active processes, including the names of their owning accounts, whereas the information displayed in the bottom window depends on the mode that Process Explorer is in: if it is in handle mode you'll see the handles that the process selected in the top window has opened; if Process Explorer is in DLL mode you'll see the DLLs and memory-mapped files that the process has loaded. Process Explorer also has a powerful search capability that will quickly show you which processes have particular handles opened or DLLs loaded.

The unique capabilities of Process Explorer make it useful for tracking down DLL-version problems or handle leaks, and provide insight into the way Windows and applications work.

Unnecessary files can be skipped to reduce the transfer time. During the process, TeraCopy shows detected errors, and allows you to fix the problem by recopying only the problematic files.

Features

Pause and resume file transfers. Pause copy process at any time to free up system resources and continue with a single click.
Error recovery. In case of copy error, TeraCopy will try several times and in the worse case just skips the file, not terminating the entire transfer.
File verification TeraCopy can verify files after they have been copied to ensure that they are identical. This is done by comparing hashes of source and target files. Supported algorithms: CRC32, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512, Panama, Tiger, RipeMD, Whirlpool and xxHash.
Confirm drag'n'drop TeraCopy can optionally show a confirmation dialog on every drag and drop operation. It can prevent you from moving folders accidentally from one location to another.
Shell integration TeraCopy can completely replace the Explorer copy and move functions, enabling you to work with files as usual.
Preserve date timestamps TeraCopy keeps the original time and date of files when copying.

Cygwin

2018-04-09T00:00:00+02:00

Get that Linux feeling - on Windows

Cygwin is a Unix-like environment and command-line interface for Microsoft Windows. Cygwin provides native integration of Windows-based applications, data, and other system resources with applications, software tools, and data of the Unix-like environment. Thus it is possible to launch Windows applications from the Cygwin environment, as well as to use Cygwin tools and applications within the Windows operating context.

Cygwin is:

a large collection of GNU and Open Source tools which provide functionality similar to a Linux distribution on Windows.
a DLL (cygwin1.dll) which provides substantial POSIX API functionality.

Cygwin is not:

a way to run native Linux apps on Windows. You must rebuild your application from source if you want it to run on Windows.
a way to magically make native Windows apps aware of UNIX® functionality like signals, ptys, etc. Again, you need to build your apps from source if you want to take advantage of Cygwin functionality.

Pros

Brings Linux tools to Windows

BIOS Beep codes viewer

2018-04-06T00:00:00+02:00

The Beep codes viewer is a simple tool that will explain the BIOS error beep codes for all the main PC BIOS manufacturers (AMI, AWARD, Phoenix, IBM). If you’ve ever had a PC fail its power-on self-test then you’ll know how useful this can be. Typically you’ll just get some pattern of beeps – one long and three short, say – and then be left hunting for your system manual to find out what these noises could possibly mean.

With the Beep codes viewer, though, it’s all very different. The program is portable, so save it to a USB flash drive and you can launch it from just about any PC. Then choose your BIOS type (it may say on the boot screen, if you still get one), and click on the beep code you’re hearing for a detailed description of what it’s trying to tell you, and how to fix the problem.

Vim

2018-04-05T00:00:00+02:00

What Is Vim?

Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to enable efficient text editing. It is an improved version of the vi editor distributed with most UNIX systems.

Vim is often called a "programmer's editor," and so useful for programming that many consider it an entire IDE. It's not just for programmers, though. Vim is perfect for all kinds of text editing, from composing email to editing configuration files.

Despite what the above comic suggests, Vim can be configured to work in a very simple (Notepad-like) way, called evim or Easy Vim.

What Vim Is Not?

Vim isn't an editor designed to hold its users' hands. It is a tool, the use of which must be learned.

Vim isn't a word processor. Although it can display text with various forms of highlighting and formatting, it isn't there to provide WYSIWYG editing of typeset documents. (It is great for editing TeX, though.)
