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.

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 :)

    • Uhm, that's every business ever, though. It doesn't matter if a bajillion users are using it. As long as it's not making bank, it's probably headed for the graveyard.
    • Yeah Patchou was an active member here, good ol' times indeed.
    • Samsung is the new Google... they don't care if millions of people are using it.
    • Still no word on Tides of Annihilation...... so weird that it wasn't shown at the big Game Fest. Guess I'll put it in the bin like Judas and Squadron 42.
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions by David Uzondu Samsung has announced that it is shutting down Samsung Max, its VPN service used by more than 50 million people, effective today. Samsung Max VPN, if you don't know, was an Android app born on February 23, 2018, out of the ashes of Opera Max, a very popular data-saving VPN that Opera had discontinued the previous year. Samsung bought the discontinued service, rebranded it, and added a native Samsung UI to fit the Galaxy ecosystem. The app could do things like compress images, help you manage background data on a per-app basis, reduce video data consumption, shrink music files, optimize webpages, block advertisement trackers in incognito mode, and encrypt your internet traffic on public Wi-Fi networks. Image via SammyGuru If you open the app now, you'd be greeted by a shutdown banner warning that all VPN, data saving, and privacy services stopped functioning on June 15, 2026. The creators failed to provide a reason for the shutdown, instead publishing a farewell note that read: "Thank you for being with us over the years. Your support and activity truly meant a lot to us and helped shape this app into what it became." This same message appears on the Google Play Store listing for the app as well. Max VPN is the latest service from Samsung to join the list of discontinued applications from the company. Just two months ago, the Korean tech giant announced that it is completely shutting down Samsung Messages, forcing millions of users to migrate to Google Messages by next month. The only devices that the shutdown won't affect are older smartphones running Android 11 or lower. Some of the features of Google Messages that Samsung hopes will entice users include AI-powered scam detection to block suspicious links, integrated Gemini AI tools to generate quick replies, custom chat bubbles, and universal RCS compatibility for sharing high-quality media with iOS users. The platform also offers seamless syncing across tablets and smartwatches. In addition to that, users gain access to message scheduling, smart classification, and automated category sorting.
