Windows XP Powertoys
By Philip Stripling of Project PET Board
Hey Y'all,
For a lot of people out there, you might not know about something Microsoft introduced a while back. They are called the XP powertoys. They are great little programs that will do all kinds of things for your computer. I am going to list them all, and tell what each one does. Color Control Panel Applet - This toy will allow you to control all of the colors of the computer in one place. SyncToy - There are all kinds of sources for media on your computer, and maybe you want to synchronize pictures on a digital camera with an iPod. This will allow you to snyc directories in your computer. RAW Image Thumbnailer and Viewer - This will allow people such as serious photographers to work with RAW files in windows explorer like you can with jpegs. ClearType Tuner - This will allow you to use ClearType technology to be able to read text easier on the screen and it is centralized in the control panel. HTML Slide show Wizard - This will allow you to make an HTML slideshow of your pictures, ready to post on your website. Open Command Window Here - This will allow you to tell command prompt to open up with the command line directory pointed at your current directory. Alt-Tab Replacement - Instead of just using Alt-Tab to switch windows (you didn't know it could do that either? Glad I'm not the only one.), you can use this to preview the window you are opening to. Tweak UI - This allows you to mess with settings not normally shown in control panel and the standard user interface. IT really is great (I have it). Power Calculator - It's like a graphing calculator on the computer. Image Resizer - This allows you to resize images just by right-clicking. CD Slide Show Generator - This will allow you to watch pictures burned to a cd as a slideshow. Virtual Desktop Manager - With this, you can manage up to four desktops at once. Taskbar Magnifier - Use this to magnify part of the screen from the taskbar. Webcam Timershot - This will let you set a timer for any webcam connected to your computer to take a picture. Hope you liked this! |
