Coding Snacks / Unlock used files on the fly, in the background

« on: July 26, 2024, 04:41 PM »

There are mnay tools like file locksmith or ecmo unlockit that unlock used files but you need to click several times to activate the program and file to unlock it. Im wondering if its possible to create a driver or something,  that automatically unlock the file in the background, kind of what anydvd did with dvds, it unscamrbled them in the background and let you know when it was done.

General Software Discussion / List of taskbar toolbar software

« on: April 11, 2024, 02:21 AM »

I thought it might not be a bad idea to make a list software that works from the taskbar. Feel free to add what I missed.

TrayPlayer,  plays music

True Launchbar, a quick launch replacement

Everything Toolbar, search with everything search

Luachtaskbar, displays the daily prayer times for those of the Jewish faith.

You're referring to silicon gel I packs I think.

I understand this site is mainly for those who want to code for free but if there is a bigger project nobody wants to freelance, perhaps there could be an option to pay for the coding. I'm curious to hear everyone's feedback

Post New Requests Here / Program to track all domains/IP addresses a program connects too.

« on: November 27, 2023, 09:29 PM »

Something like the DNS requests feature in the Adaway app for android. I know there is wireshark but thats too bulky, it logs everything and all I want is to track which domains a program (chrome for example) connects too so I can block the tracking with a hosts file like someone did with Edge.

Post New Requests Here / Re: [Request] - Windows Title Change ( Permanent )

« on: May 22, 2023, 08:18 PM »

Hello Coders!

This is my 1st day here in this forum and i've been seeing some good codes here so why not try to request

Request:

A new DLL to change the default windows title for the .exe since the developer doesn't want to remove their branding even we paid for the files and services.

Must be:
    • Permanent
    • .DLL to hook to .exe

Here's the screenshot of the default windows title that they don't want to remove

[ Invalid Attachment ]

Thank you so much and if this is a paid one just let me know the price.

God bless!

I know a solution has been found but if you want the file patched directly, I don't mind giving it a shot.

Listary has a find as you type feature, I havent seen anywhere else. As in, you just start typing and as long as its running, listary will pop up and search whatevr you're looking for.

General Software Discussion / Re: MS Edge non-enterprise 64 bit exists?

« on: May 22, 2023, 07:19 PM »

Microsoft Edge 64 bit downloads keep bringing me to the Enterprise Edition.  If I am running Windows 11 Home edition isn't that overkill?  Seems like it should not be this tough to find out what the deal is.  I wonder if the preinstalled version is lugging around too much database crap.  As I update it seems to get less stable.  So for now I have done the updater wammy similar to Opera.  Namely renaming the update exe file so that the About Box arrow spins forever.

Anyone have insight to simplify the issue?

-MilesAhead (April 07, 2023, 09:37 AM)

It's microsoft so there is alot of telemetry and whatnot in the background slowing it down. (in all fairness, most other companies do it too)
But fear not, someone made a hosts file to block the tracking. https://www.reddit.c...acking_in_microsoft/

Post New Requests Here / Re: [IDEA] Capture list of domains an app connects to online

« on: May 22, 2023, 05:30 PM »

"" Not to rain on your parade, but why would you want to use the spyware?"

Because sometimes they make great software that I can't find any substitute for.

To give an example, there is Clover (http://en.ejie.me/) which adds tabs and bookmarks to Explorer, its nice but its loaded with malware, so I was thinking of either blocking the malware with the hosts file or maybe getting rid of the malware from it. Or, maybe this is the right place to ask if someone could maybe, make a clone without the malware.

« on: May 22, 2023, 01:29 AM »

There are many software which are nice but they have alot of tracking (chrome for example) I was thinking if it's possible to make something that can get a list of the domains a program connects too, and then provide options to block them in the hosts file, this way, you can still use spyware but it blocks it from sending your info.

Well perhaps you will like UltraCompare then

Synchronize It! and Compare It! - superb GUI design, I still use them to this day for small simple jobs - one can still buy them, they still work, but unfortunately not upgraded for many many years. Synchronize It! can even copy sparse files, which is extremely rare.

Cool Edit Pro. It was the leading audio production software up until Adobe bought it from Syntrillium in 2003 and renamed it Audition 1.0. Then Adobe tampered with it and released Audition 1.5 which was plagued with problems. CEP is so stable that I visited a radio station in New Market Virginia in 2019 and that was still using it for radio production. I assume that was on a PC running Windows XP but I didn't ask about that.

-Joe Hone (June 04, 2022, 09:39 AM)

Interesting. Personally I like the UI of audition better, but here you go.
