Recommended Software for certain tasks

[synergy]

I'm all about making repetitive tasks less repetitive.

Couple very handy free apps that I've discovered:

Introduction - Bulk Rename Utility - Batch renaming
http://members.ij.net/anthonymathews/MacroMaker.htm - Macro Maker

Neither of these are new by any means, but they are extremely useful.

Why are you jumping a year and a half old thread?

 

[Trotter]

This thread is a part of the Windows Sticky Index so it is fine to add to it.

Why are you jumping a year and a half old thread?

Why not?

A.) It is called the Recommended Software for certain tasks thread
B.) The software listed could be outdated and something new has come along
C.) The software listed could be removed from the servers and internet and not available for distrobution anymore
D.) Someone has something they would like to add

Just cause this topic was created 3 years ago and been quite for the past 2 years doesnt mean that it is perfect as it is.

I will add these items soon.

Thanks for the exclamation, Trotter.

Why didn't you just say so? I'm not much aware of this thread. I wasn't here 2 years ago.

 

[KSoD]

That is not a good thing. Why do we have these Sticky Indexes if even daily members dont bother checking them. That makes it all worth the effort of going through and taking the time to create such topics....

I'm not a Windows maniac. I just browse this place, help where I can, I don't read every pinned thread. Elsewhere, I do, however. Because I am more involved in the hardware sections.
