WinBubble, Customize and Tweak your Windows Vista Easily


Recommended Posts

Hm, doesn't really seem to do much that you can't do in Vista's own GUI. All I did was change the IE explorer title from "Internet Explorer - provided by Dell" to just "Internet Explorer" and tweaked the ribbons screen saver. Might add the aero on/off right click options though.

woot for you!

haha! Thanks :)

Anyway, Some users want a Detailed documentation of WinBubble... Please wait guys.

Since it is a Dream come True for me... I'm going to share a more advance with complete

Documentations of settings soon.

I'm writing the software for almost two months already during my spare time.

Now, It's time to Share Everything to others.

Please support it soon...

Thanks in advance...

Also, Any suggestions about WinBubble are welcome :)

Hello guys,

I would like to thank Neowin.net for Everything!

"Hey there. I just discovered WinBubble via Paul Thurrott?s SuperSite Blog. What a great program!

I have one feature request: The ?Take Ownership? option only works for files and not for folders or removable drives. Not sure if you can make it work on

folders, but when I receive USB/FireWire hard discs that contain folder directory structures created in XP I can?t work within those folders with proper

privledges until I recursively take ownership of those folders. Being able to do that from the right-click menu would be a HUGE time saver.

Thanks again for writing such a great tool!

-greg"

After this... I will now continue Coding for the Next Extension maybe partner of WinBubbleTweaker For GeekscStay tuned!!!#33;

WinBubble is getting better and better because of the users that always sent email and some useful tips.

I owe this release to them :)

Only one feature came from me, "Create a Restore Point" Context menu which popped out in my head while walking around the crowed.

I'm enjoying writing softwares... It feels like I am writing a book.

Although I have so many problems right now, I will do my best to update WinBubble in the coming months...

Woot For Us! I would like to thanks again my friends that supported me from the start.

Thanks Neo Neowin.Net and Mr Woody!!!

Hey mamee, Thanks! :)

It's very hard to create a program and asking people to help you distribute it.

especially if the Program Doesn't earn money. it's negative...

In the end the USERS are the one that always decide and appreciate your work.

That's what is important to me. I accomplished many things in the University and I really missed that.

That's one of the many reason why I am writing software's for free.

WinBubble and the users makes me happy. again thanks guys :)

History

1. While Creating Blogs about Windows Vista. I was annoyed by writing registry tips and tricks again and again. that's why I created WinBubble.

2. WinBubble was the first program I wrote in .Net, Although I am writing software's already in my spare time, just for fun (Hardware+Software in VB 6.0!)

3. Because of the Help of all the users here, Mr. Woody! and great suggestions, my dream came true. Thanks guys!

4. Because of writing Software's everyday without exercise during the Winter time, I was sent to the hospital and can't walk properly for three weeks.

5. I was hit by a motorcycle because of the Anti-Bug Feature :)

6. WINBUBBLE GOT 1.1MILLION GOOGLE RESULTS IN IT'S PEAK

Again Thanks NEOWIN.NET and to all the users!

Is this a goodbye? nope, if I have time... I'll try to update WinBubble. but not as fast as I did for the past 8 months.

Tweaker For Geeks 1.0? I HOPE SO!

hello guys, I'm very sorry. It's up and running now.

Here's the WinBubble HomePage

I thought I was hacked. It will be a disaster if the page was deleted. It was dead for almost 3-6 hours (I don't know the exact time because I fall asleep). But When I checked it one by one. Luckily the message was not deleted and it was changed to draft.

I don't know why. now, everytime I post a new article, it goes to draft using Windows Live Writer. I'm going to ask someone in the help section of google. Anyway, If anybody knows how to solve the problem??? Please help. Thanks in advance :)

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
