There are lots of file converters for audio, text and graphics out there, but this is the only one I know of which will convert to multiple formats simultaneously. Note that it’s a Cloud based service so, be circumspect regarding personal/financial info.

You can read about it here: http://www.thewindowsclub.com/convert-any-file-format-cloudconvert

Hi,

 

I currently have Delldock and I would like to test ObjectDock, but I can't install the trial version. I have this error :

 

"Encountered a sharing violation while accessing C:\Program Files(x86)\Stardock\ObjectDock\ODMenu.dll"

 

Do I need to remove DellDock first?

 

Thank you

So far in 2 open days there have been 68 groups of people gone through the house, 10 of those have requested engineering reports and...

I’ve had some questions come in from Facebook and the WinCustomize forums about some of the additional features of WindowBlinds regarding textures and backgrounds, so I wanted to write a post going into more detail about it.  These are all features that aren’t really difficult to use, but if you are a new user you just might not be familiar with where everything is and how they work.

If you are completely new to WindowBlinds 8, let me recommend you also take a read through th...

Here's another Linux article that, since I'm not a Linux user, pointed out some interesting facts. Seems to me if Linux is going to a valid alternative to MS they really need to come to an agreement which version it is going to be.

If your're interested, check out the c/net News.com link below.

If you've been following the current rift in the Linux community between Linus Torvalds and his minions squaring off against Con Kolivas and the mainstream Linux fanatics, you probably know that it...

Dear Stardock,

As a returning WB user (2005-2009) all I can say about Lantana is that this 2005ish era style really needs to replaced with more modern style as it really brings down the overall quality of the supplied set. There are loads of this old school style stuff on Wincustomize.com, if someone really wants it.
