A floating, dockable Coolbar monitors CPU and system resources, displays multiple clocks, and holds shortcuts to applications and system functions. Size Manager displays file and folder sizes-useful when you have to free up storage space. PowerDesk 4 Pro includes four additional utilities. You can also encrypt files, copy a file name or its path to the Windows Clipboard (to help colleagues find them on a network) and quickly set file and program associations. Version 4 adds 10 graphics conversion formats to the 20 its predecessor could handle. The program's File Manager lets you set filters, sort file lists, drag and drop files in a two-pane view, print files and tree lists, delete and destroy files, and open or create Zip files. Besides handling basic file management tasks (moving, copying, and deleting files), this $20 utility can view files saved in any of 200 formats and can use FTP files to transfer files to and from a Web server. Same old stuff.SAN FRANCISCO () - OnTrack Data International Inc.'s PowerDesk 4 Pro cures the anemic Explorer in Windows 9x, 2000, or NT 4.0. Some new colors or fonts would have been nice but nothing. Nice utilities yet not much difference between the two. Pretty much the same scenario with System Suite 7 to 8. That is why I tolerate it but really there are so little differences in the 2 versions, if you are not trying to get it to work with Vista, I wouldn't bother. I can open windows explorer while it's trying to get it together and get the same folder's files listed in 10-12 seconds!! I mean, HOW HARD IS THAT TO DO? What is weird is. I bought the upgrade only hoping they fixed the problem where is takes 45 seconds+ to load all the files in a large folder so I can view just a list of them. It may be there but they have not made it easy to find! So, IMHO, the only real difference is the ability to use in Vista.PERIOD and they are trying to make a few bucks off that rather than offering a real update/upgrade to those who previously bought the product and are still happy with XP. I have to say that 95% of what is in powerdesk 6 is THE SAME in 7! Even the "new features", I am still looking for -with their touting new image handling and the "image toolbar". Then, Xtree Gold then it was gone for a while.Īnyway, I have been using Powerdesk for a long, long time on a daily basis. Hi, I have been using this product since way before it was acquired by all the companies that have bought and sold it.
