User Reviews

  • Thanks for the great tool. Took me a while to find this.
  • Thank you very much for the free open source program!
  • Unsupported, on Win10 it works but I was not able to abilitate "new" for libreoffice files (apparently they are abilitated in the registry but still not present in Win 10 "new" context menù)
  • Nice easy single purpose program. It works, save me parsing the registry.
  • Thanks for this. Pretty useful and easy to use.
