Software Update: jv16 PowerTools X 4.0.0.1499

Macecraft Software has released an update to jv16 PowerTools X. This program is for tweaking all kinds of things in Windows. For example, there are modules to determine which programs are started when Windows boots and you can search for duplicate files. Furthermore, the registry can be cleaned of redundant keys and made smaller, which has a beneficial effect on Windows performance.

The program can be tried for two months and a license costs just under thirty euros. In jv16 PowerTools X, among other things, a new module has been added to optimize the start time and the ‘Clean & Fix my Computer’ module has been improved. This update also contains the following changes and improvements:

Improvements

• The boot time operations (Registry Compact, File Removal on Reboot, Registry Data Removal on Reboot) will now avoid using the root of the C disk drive for their configuration data, instead, a system Temporary directory will be used (if found).

Bug Fixes

• Registry Compactor can refuse to start with an error message about failing to write to C drive.
• The program can show error message about Access Violation after the Initial Setup has been ran and the program starts for the first time.
• Sometimes when the program is started, the main window gets very unresponsive for a period of 5 – 10 seconds.
• There can be the Buy Now option in the Help menu even if you already own a license for the product.
• In some systems, the Initial Setup and/or the Software Uninstaller crash with Out of Memory error or run indefinitely.
• Clicking the Update Details button in the My Account tool can show an error message about an Access Violation error.
