Partitioning for dummies Getting a new PC is always a joyous event. Most of the time you get system ready to be put to work (or game), but sometimes you need to do the hard work of installing components, formatting the drive and setting up the operating system. When it's time to do that you need a certain technical prowess, but most of the time computers already come...Continue to app
Archiving can be fancy Since there are valid options to create and unpack archives for free, good old WinZip had to do something in order to keep a praemium on its software product. Lo and behold, the new WinZip has a new interface, worthy of admittance in the the MS Office package. Not only that, but now it strives to become more than a window that you never use....Continue to app
Restoration File back-ups is not something that a young budding computer owner would consider doing. Yet, on the odd day when your hard drive gets infected with something that encrypts all your picture files and then asks for money to get them back, you might regret not having prepared yourself. Of course, you don't need to invest a lot in this type of...Continue to app
The Google-verse explorer Several years ago, when I was riding the Linux wave and enjoying Firefox, I was finding out that Google was planning to release its own browser. Good for them, I thought, but I don't know how they could create something better than Mozilla's top of the line Firefox... Great expectations They didn't, but in seven years since its introduction, Chrome...Continue to app
Record & Forget If you want to record your great video game feats or simply want to capture a live web streaming, then you have probably figured by now that you need some sort of video recording software. If you're not the professional type, then you'll need something easy to use and master that can adapt even to a less than stellar hardware configuration. If...Continue to app
The Pretender I often see a lot of Minecraft clones. Mediocre ones at best. Driven by the promise of a free version of this popular game, you will often find yourself disappointed over the lack of details, control, style or performance that these wannabes exhibit. I wouldn't say Worldcraft rivals the original by any chance, but it's quite close to a good game....Continue to app
Like a Pro! Although the word "app" takes us directly to Android or iOS applications (or Windows 8, but who cares) this app is designed to run on nothing else but a computer. As generic as possible You might be asking why would you need a Facebook app on a screen that can support the fully detailed Facebook page. Well, you're mostly right. You...Continue to app
Not quite there Finding a program that converts a PDF file into a fully editable office format file is like finding the Rosetta Stone. Unlike Champollion however, you can get this feature in Adobe Acrobat, for a price. Still, I think that this kind of conversion should be as accessible as drinking water (although Nestle's CEO would not agree with me). Free PDF...Continue to app
Professional downloading I am one who rarely checks the downloads folder. Consequentially, when I do check it, I have to sort out from a huge list of images, installers, fonts, archives and folders. Not pleasant. Of course, I could start deleting downloads as soon as they're no longer needed or sort them into folders. But that requires forming a habit and that means two...Continue to app
Nobody's looking We have all stumbled across seemingly impossible odds while playing a game. That is usually a very big problem if you're playing a board game. Unless it happens to be Munchkin or Cosmic Encounter then you will have no choice but to put your honor on the line if you intend to... influence aspects that benefit you. In the video game world however, no...Continue to app
