Added granular "Power Plan" tweaks for Screen, Disk, Sleep, and Hibernate timeout values (e.g. 5 minutes), rather than the old options to simply disable the timeouts. Added the...

Add a "Command Prompt Here" option to your right-click/context menu in Windows Explorer and on the Desktop, which of course opens cmd.exe and changes path to the current directory in Windows Explorer. The option did already exist if you held the SHIFT key down when right-clicking the background of Windows Explorer, but this was replaced by PowerShell in Windows 10; and besides, you had to hold down SHIFT (with this .reg addition, you do not.) ...

Added new option/tab to uninstall Windows Store Apps in KillEmAll/dUninstaller interface, including whitelisting/blacklisting options that match the classic programs definition rules. Automated processing of the new related definition files is included in the current "dUninstaller (Auto)" d7x internal function. Added all reports from the Audit/Diag tab as internal functions with numbers, so they may be used in command line arguments passed to d7x, such as through the d7xRDT. Search for the report name in Config...

Uncle Carey's Windows 10 NetFix was conceived by Carey Holzman and developed by d7xTech.com to make life easier when setting up or troubleshooting file sharing and communication between network devices on Windows 10/8.x. We at d7xTech thought it would be a good idea to expand upon it and include some networking repair functionality found in our d7x Technician’s tool, but this is entirely optional. This tool is perfect for: Anyone who wants to easily apply these tweaks and fixes to...
Lockdown is a preventative measure for use against malware/ransomware attacks, which works by leveraging Windows Software Restriction Policies to prevent programs from running unexpectedly and from blocked locations. Lockdown is designed in the opposite way that CryptoPrevent works with SRP, in that Lockdown by default blacklists the entire file system, and whitelisting must be applied to allow programs to run (even built-in Windows programs!) Locksmith also goes a step further and restricts not only executables,...
