X-Setup Pro 9.0.100

Publisher's Description:

X-Setup Pro is a so-called "hacker" or "tweaker" program. It allows you to change 1,900 settings that are normally hidden deeply in some configuration-files like the registry fast and easily. It's runs on any Windows version, is clutter-free, easy to use, extensible, powerful, covers any aspect of your computer and has more configuration options than any other tweaker.

This program is the best of its kind, but lost 3 stars because of its horrendous installation procedures.

There's absolutely NO REASON why this application needs to spread itself all over your computer.

For example:

INSTALLATION:
*System: xqdcXSPApplet.cpl
*To Local settings Data folder: "items" folder containing ***1002*** FILES. Yes, one THOUSAND.
*Application folder: 16.1 MB of application files.

I encourage all of you to rigorously boycott this program until the author allows you to save all of the files to ONE folder and doesn't use the registry to save its own setting ;(

Shazbad! We've descended into a plethora of utter review 'uselessability'.

To sum up the general consensus re X-Setup thru the years:

1. So many tweaks abound that one can use this app for a long time before getting to each and every tweak.

2. Very important in light of 1: no reports of even minor bugs in all these years...much less of any significant system damage.

3. Tweaks applied can be saved auto-saved en masse & ported over to another computer/unattended setup.

4. Tweakers & developers are further taken care of with ability to see which/how pertinent registry key is modified and further- able to modify current plugins or create new one.

Beaucoup reviews over the years have just gushed over X-Setup...to the point that countless freeware-only advocates state they willingly fork over the few dollars to purchase this app.

If this app does not deserve a 5, then i don't know which one in the entire universe would... plus: all direct competitors- much, much smaller & many rated 4/5- would then have to be rated 1/2 just based on providing so many less features & tweaks.

I do however, have a couple of concerns re Vista-- in light of it NOT being freeware AND upgrades included for one year only:

Until an extensive number of Vista tweaks are included AND a warning inserted into the regular tweaks that won't work on Vista(esp. for those that can cause system issues), i would extend the free trial period until...even if only for Vista systems-- either: install routine can detect OS version & apply different trial period, or easier: designate it Beta & allow it to install on Visa with NO expiration, as folks w/ Vista would want to subsequently get the version with tweaks for their OS, portability to vLite, etc.
From a promotional / marketing / increased sales viewpoint, THAT is what would make total sense.
