Locked me out of links - outlook to explorer, witthin explorer. Keeps coming up with the message "the operaion has been canceled due to restricions in effect on this computer" Checked and re-checked all settings in Win7, Outlook and explorer - this is BADDD

Contains USEFUL and non obvious tweaks only, unlike other programs with tons of crap.
Kudos to the author for making a meaningful tool.

Gets better and better with each release.
Really great application.

Change Log:
0.9.2.0
October 1st, 2009

- Program now tries to detect system locale.
- Added option to Disable/Enable the Libraries folder under
Windows 7. This is on the Win 7 Interface II page.
- Added third Windows 7 Interface page with two new features:
- New Regional Theme feature. This will enable regional themes
for English versions of Windows 7. I've only tested this on
the EN-US version of Windows 7.
- New Regional Wallpaper feature. This and the above feature
will add new items to the "Personalize" window.
- Hid the old AutoRun disable function and added a newer and
supposedly improved method for preventing programs (such as
malware) from auto-running from external media such as USB drives
or CD/DVD-ROMs. This is for XP/Vista/Windows 7.
- Added link to 3rd party program to let you customize the Windows 7
logon screen background. This on the UAC page under Windows 7.

Shows some promise, but a long way to go - so far it contains only a VERY limited number of tweeks. As for the comments about it needing .NET, that's no different from a Java app requiring a Java runtime to be installed. I'm not aware that installing .NET is going to put XP users out at all - other than it taking such a long time to install of course.

Aegis69 seems to have completely misread what this program does. The SafeXP program they recommend is for tweeking security settings - which as far as I can tell this program doesn't touch.

Aegis69,
Are you a dummy? This is a great app and just what I'm looking for.
Running Windows 7 x64 and the major glaring omission is the option to delete the send to, and replace it with move/copy.
That function alone is worth the price, if a meagre donation to the author!
Damn 'tards!

It has all the options that i need for tweaking my machine. others probably have more, but i do not need them. Small and stable.

Everything will require .net in the future?

HAHAHAHAHA!

Yeah I'd love to see a real software company force you to install that garbage before installing their app. And if you have a Mac or use Linux I'm sure you'd just going to find a .net port that will run on your machine.

Puhleese, 10 year olds leaving comments on software, thats just rich.

I don't have .net installed at all on my XP machine, and if I come across a crap program that needs it, I look for an alternative. And, for an alternative to this garbage, get SafeXP http://www.theorica.net/safexp.htm

as for .net... Resistance is futile. So get over it. Nice app, but lots of tweaks are missing. This program should only get better. I am anxious for the next build.

Kudos for being an idiot. Great program. Most everything will require .net in the future, so deal with it.

Not too bad, does have a few handy tweaks, but seen better.
Why do people still downgrade for .Net applications. Makes no real difference these days, it is the way many apps will go now, so learn to live with it!!
