Windows 8 App: Cumulo – Your One Place to Manage Multiple Cloud Services | Next of Windows

“

If you have multiple cloud services accounts and are using them constantly and simultaneously, you may be interested in having a single app that can manage them all. At least, I do. Cumulo is one of such apps available on Windows 8 that can help you with that. It integrates multiple popular cloud services, including Dropbox, SkyDrive, Google Drive, Box and SugarSync, into a single and unified view to allow you to manage them from one place. It’s completely free and works on both Windows 8 and Windows RT.

Cumulo - main screen

You can add services from Cumulo Settings through the settings charm (press Ctrl+I or swipe in from right board of the touch screen). It supports Dropbox’s 2-factor authentication smoothly so you don’t have to worry if you have signed up its 2-factor mode.

How to remove all bundled Modern apps from your user account in Windows 8 | Winaero

Or Forward to the Past. Devil

“…

Windows 8 has done radical changes to the application distribution model. There are two types of applications or “apps” in Windows 8 – Desktop apps are one type that we all have used for years, and Modern apps are the other,  formerly known as Metro apps. Modern apps were created principally for touch screen devices, such as tablets and for simple uses. If you are not a tablet user and do not have a display with touch screen support, or if you are a power user, you may find Modern apps useless.

Even if you click “Uninstall” on the Start screen for the built-in apps, they are not completely removed from your system as they are “Staged” so that Windows can re-create the built-in apps for a new user account. So, they continue to take disk space unnecessarily on your PC, in the C:\Program Files\WindowsApps folder.

You might be interested in knowing how to remove these bundled Metro apps from your user account and free up a significant amount of disk space.

Portable Apps Suite (kanálgép)

Egy igen hasznos gyűjtemény, a ghacks.net blogján találtam hivatkozást rá:

The portable apps suite contains a collection of portable freeware applications including a web browser, email client, web editor, office suite, word processor, calendar/scheduler, instant messaging client and FTP client. The suite itself comes in two flavours, standard (117 MB) and light edition (44 MB). The difference between the standard and light suite is that the standard suite includes open office while the light suite does not.

FW: Screen Capture 2

This is the second version of my screen capture tool. It has been rewritten from scratch, and works very different. You can now also capture the entire screen, or set a delay.
Again, no code, because:
– it’s easier for me to provide only the application
– it’s a smaller download
– you can use Reflector to view the ‘source code’ in C# or VB.NET
