Utility Spotlight: Screenrecorder

Screenrecorder is a very easy-to-use screen-to-video capture program, developed on top of Windows Media Encoder, that lets you easily capture what is going on to a small video file, which you can then send via e-mail to the appropriate person. That person can then watch the video just as if he is sitting next to you and you are showing him what's is happening on the screen.

Nice find,

Thanks, just D/L it.

I have used PDF Xchange Viewer. Its better than Foxit and definitely better than Adobe.

I have been a Foxit user for a few years now but am unfamiliar with PDF Xchange Viewer. What are the advantages of PDF Xchange Viewer over Foxit that make it better in your opinion?

Thanks Swarfega,

That's an interesting app. Takes a while to scan the drive and crashes /hangs every now and then - doesn't seem to cause a problem tho.

Elias Fotinis OverDisk :: Visualize Folder Size Allocation


IMO you can't beat the Disk Analysis in Glary Utilities - very fast and comprehensive - you can get a list of all the files of a given type ( select filetype in top rt window ) - they are dispalyed in window underneath - select the one you want - displays path at bottom. Great for finding "lost" files.

Yeah OverDisk is only alpla currently. I was looking for a windows equivalent of KdirStat.

You could take a look at this freebie - similar to the Fotinis one - quicker, and it doesn't crash:

Disk Space Analyzer - Download Disk Space Analyzer Freeware by Windsty, Inc. - Utilities Software, File & Disk Management Software
