New Utilities From SK Tools
Posted by Brad Adrian in "SOFTWARE" @ 01:00 AM
We've all seen the many types of utilities that can make using our Pocket PCs easier and more effective. What we don't often see is a useful collection of integrated utilities. SK Tools has just updated that kind product in its (aptly-named) SK Tools.
It's really difficult to describe all that SK Tools can do, but here's a brief listing:
Cleaning: deletion of unneeded temporary files, shortcuts, etc.
Backup/restore: backup of registry, databases and more
Storage card maintenance: scanning, formatting, listing of cards
Database maintenance: reviewing, deleting, exporting of databases
Process list: shows all running processes
Today plug-ins list: management of Today plug-ins
Input methods list: management of input methods
Windows startup: display and control of apps that automatically load
Built-in uninstaller: aid for application removal
Automation mode: control when SK Tools runs
Other: multi-language support, soft and hard reset, etc.
There are a couple of other things that make this collection unique. First, it's relatively inexpensive; you can download a free demo version or buy the full version of SK Tools for $9.00 from the Handango site. Second, you can learn all about what SK Tools is up to from its entirely Pocket PC-friendly Web site. No side-to-side scrolling! Yeah!
A lot of people prefer to use their own group of individual utilities, but this may be the all-in-one collection you've been waiting for.
