Excellent app! :D

I only have one request: I use this app because I run my computer as a limited user. Now, the installation script copies a .cpl file to %windows%/system32. Ok, I have no problem with that (although it would be convenient to be able to install as a limited user)... just install as admin right? Well, when I do install as admin, I can run the app as a limited user, but I can't configure anything - only admin can. the limited user account can't even open the "Change properties" app. When I set the perms for the .cpl app so that limited users can access it, I can now open the properties window as a limited user, but I still can't save anything ... even thou limited users can edit the config files. I am wondering if this could be fixed. For now ... I manually change the perms or run the config as admin.

Also ... it would be nice if different users had different config files.

finally! a usable calender and cool clock for XP. and low memory usage to boot!

one suggestion: when viewing the calendar, if a balloon pops, when reading a note on a certain day, reset the auto-close timer. as it is now i can only read a few notes before the calendar closes on me!

also, let us change the color of the bullet that indicates day-notes. i didn't see it in there.

very cool tho.

Great application i have looked in the option but cant seem to find a option for a reminder to pop-up at every start up. Is it there if so were? if not i would love to have that option in the next release.

Is there going to be another version by the way or is that it for the clock, i mean the latest version was released over a year ago now.

This is a great little add-on. I really like it a lot better than the default Windows "date and time". The only improvement that I could see helping this, would be to be able to set the clock to chime at certain intervals....like every half hour or every hour. Were it possible to do this, and just use a .wav for the chime sound, it would allow a lot of easy customization of that feature by useres. Also, the ability to set reminders is a nice touch, but having the ability to set an alarm would also be helpful....again with something basic like a .wav file for the alarm sound, giving users the ability to easily customize that as well.

THX for your great work. Till yesterday I used TClock. LClock is really fantastic. I love it!

Just a wish: Is it possible to ad the week in the calender view?

I've been following this program since its development, and i think that your request was one of the most asked for features. Not too sure why it was never implemented.

Unfortunately as :No-Frost: said, i dont think RCube has worked on this app any more. Its not looking like he's going to either :(

Still not too shabby as is though :)

Stumbled across this during Nov 2005 and love it to bits. I love bits of code that are small and compact, yet packed with functionality. Low mem usage have made this program into one of my main essentials apps for XP.

Strongly doubt it needs updates anyway, and am sure we wont see any but does it need any? lol

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.

      Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

      I use a Linux laptop every day. I have tried to switch to Linux on my gaming PC which has a 5070 ti. It was not a great experience
