I discovered a free program that goes a long way toward keeping my computer running smoothly and cleaning up unnecessary garbage from my system. It’s called CCleaner (the first C stands for Crap!), and I’d like to show you how it works.
In all honesty, I’ve used and recommended a couple of programs for a long time that I actually prefer. For cleaning and optimizing my computer, I’ve always trusted SpeedUpMyPC, and for anything having to do with cleaning my registry, I’ve always used RegistryBooster. Nothing I’ve found makes me feel better about getting the job done.
However, this free program has been gaining notice lately, and I’ve been testing it. It just might fit the needs of many out there, and I’m giving it some press.
Well, here’s part 3 of 3 in my video series on RocketDock.
In parts 1 and 2 I showed how to get it free, and how to customize the settings. Now, in part 3 you’ll see a little about how to use it — adding and deleting items and shortcuts, and touching on how to customize the icons.
I can already see that I’ll need to do a Part 4. There are a couple of things to watch out for when adding certain items from certain locations. Also, it might help some to know exactly how to add new icons to the program so you can make it unique to you and your requirements.
In the previous post and video, “New Solution For Desktop Clutter,” I introduced you to a program called RocketDock, and showed you how to get it for free.
In this video, part 2 of 3, I’ll show you how to adjust the settings to your tastes. In the process, I realized and pointed out how RocketDock could be of help to the many, many Internet users who are sight-impared. I have a vision impairment myself, and RocketDock has helped me quite a bit.
Anyway, please watch the video (I hope it’s of help to you), and let me know what you think.
I discovered a new solution for desktop clutter. Well, it’s new to me, though apparently thousands of people have known about it for a long time. It’s called RocketDock, and it’s actually based on the Apple/Mac dock, but designed for Windows.
It’s really a cool little program, and I’ve found it indispensible already. I’ve made three videos, the forst of which is below illustrating a little of what it it, and how to get it. It’s a free prgram, in case you were wondering.
I’ll post the two other videos shortly. The second video demonstrates how to get the settings to your liking, and the third shows how to add and delete items. I did it in three parts because doing it in one video ran just way too long.
I’m a big fan of a disk defragmentation program called Diskeeper. It’s the best out there, bar none. There’s a video farther down this blog demonstrating it.
But I’m also a big fan of helping my readers get the job done without emptying their wallets, so I’ve come up with a version of Diskeeper that is available for no cost. It’s not a “trial version,” but an actual no cost version that, to the best of my knowledge, doesn’t expire.
Watch the video and see if it’s for you. If so, the link to download it is under the video.
