My most indispensable utility
Since Neville Hobson wrote about Total Commander, calling it his most indispensable PC application, I’ve been thinking about mine. It’s a very simple little application that doesn’t do a lot, but what it does it does extremely well. It’s called Starter from a shareware company called Codestuff. It makes management of the applications that run at startup a breeze. Most important, though, is its “terminate” function. Windows users know how frustrating it is when an application freezes. You can click CTL-ALT-DEL all day long, but the app won’t budge. Open Starter, go to the tab for currently running applications, highlight the one causing the problem and click the terminate button. Instant closing. Best of all, Starter is free.
