Changing the default icons is one of the earliest and most popular ways to customize the look and feel of Windows. Whether users were trying to emulate another operating system (like MacOS) or just trying to create a particular theme, changing the Windows icons has been a key part of desktop customization for quite some time. IconPackager was introduced to make the process much easier, allowin

I admit I should be using more keyboard shortcuts aside from just the most basic ones such as copy and paste. I was browsing Windows Central and they have an article which lists all the essential Windows 10 shortcuts. They even have them broken down to help you narrow down any you might be looking for. I'm going to go through it and find some of the most useful that I might use. Here's their list: <a href="https://www.windowscentral.com/best-windows-10-keyboard-shortcuts"

I received my order from We The People Holsters recently and I just wanted to pass along their info in case anyone else is looking for quality holsters for their firearm. Great quality, and best of all....American made! I wanted an OWB holster for my Glock 19, and they also gave me a deal on an extra mag holder so why not.

In one of my last blogs , I downloaded and tried out ObjectBar on my Windows 10 laptop. It was a fun experiment, and I enjoyed reading your comments on whether we should try to bring back ObjectBar.

I really don't care much for consoles any more. I used to always get the latest Xbox release but I really don't have a desire to do so.

I have a 15" Dell XPS 4K touchscreen laptop that I primarily use for work purposes. Any productivity software I need is bought and used mostly for this machine. Over the years, I've tried out more types of apps than I could probably ever remember or count. Most of them I never stuck with because they ended up not being not very useful for what I needed. Now, of course everyone's view on what is productive for them will vary from person to person, but I wanted to talk about the softwar

SkinStudio doesn't get as much attention from the general skinning consumer since it's primary focus is the creation of skins, but lets not forget its importance as it plays a big role in bringing us skins for WindowBlinds . <img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="ht

I was doing some updates with Object Desktop on my laptop and while grabbing an installer file from my account, I noticed the download for ObjectBar. Wow, that brought back some memories of skinning. ObjectBar would let you create and use your own start menus, docks, sidebars, etc. and was very customizable in both functionality and skinning. It was quite popular in the past, especially with people lo

Object Desktop is a yearly membership, but you still can use the app after as long as you have the installers. More info on that here: https://forums.stardock.com/486310/object-desktop-support-faq#objectdesktop
