**************************************************************************
PLEASE NOTE:
SOME OF THESE PROGRAMS WILL NOT SELF-INSTALL SO THE WAY TO USE THOSE
IS TO COPY THE FILE/S TO A LOCATION AND CREATE A SHORTCUT FOR EXECUTING
This is the latest updates that I can find for these software
applications.
I do have a number of other useful tools in my "to do" list so
check back occasionally.

More Coming -- I've been collecting some nice VB scripts that run on the PC with just a click
Some of these functions are already available in Windows but they usually need a few clicks
to activate.
As an alternative option -- these VB scripts will do a command quickly -just one click-
and some of these are original, i.e., Windows doesn't have (like the Form Spell Check offered below)
FYI: read each script in Notepad to view how to use each script
--
Like other software on this page
that doesn't have an installation wizard
just unzip and create a shortcut to use from your Desktop or where ever --
Here's a couple scripts to start you off for now:
Restore Point Creation with one click -- acts quickly and tells you when it's completed successfully
