ZipGenius is a great solution for who needs to archive and protect its files and projects, but it is also suitable for everyone who just want to share pictures and music files. Flexibility: ZipGenius features are unusual for a program of this type: you get support to TWAIN device (scanners and digital cameras), files extraction to CD-R writer (only under Windows XP®), a FTP client (FTPGenius). and other things. Power: ZipGenius 5 will make you use the right button of your mouse in a very clever way: all the most important functions have been replicated there. ZipGenius fully integrates with Windows® Explorer shell and, specifically, it takes advantages from using Windows® XP innovative features, such as built-in support to CD-R writers. Safety: In ZipGenius 5 we focused to increase data security, so we introduced some features to achieve these results: archive history file is encrypted, most recently used files list can be enabled (always or per session) or disabled, and CryptoZip 2.1 gives better encryption algorhythms to lock your archives. | | | | Download: | [ Go to download page ] (zg551std.exe) (7.06 Mb)

This uses the partitions as identified by NT at boot time. This access is not available from the Win32 subsystem so Explore2fs can bypass Win32 and interface directly with the Native API. This supports drag and drop, as well as many other improvements. Subtle bugs in write support are being ironed out as well as other UI improvements. Despite being version 1.00, I think Explore2fs will join the list of 'Permanent beta' software, for now anyway. | | | | Download: | [ !! Direct Download !! ] (explore2fs-1.00pre6.zip) (357 Kb)
