Ctrl+Shift+Esc is the shortcut used by those who want to be different, while Ctrl+Alt+Del is the path followed by most Windows users to reach Windows Task Manager, but for those who think they need to know more about what’s happening inside their computers, starting up (once installed, of course) System Explorer is the thing to [...]

I love freebies, even when we’re talking about outdated software! Who wouldn’t like to get Windows XP licenses for free, even now, for example? Unfortunately, I can’t imagine Microsoft doing that anytime soon, but when it comes to Windows system tools, there’s more than just one software company giving away precious pieces of code for [...]
