Amphetamine v3.0 Amphetamine v3.0 Description: Amphetamine is designed to prevent three things, (all are individually optional): Screen Saver Sleep Mode System Shutdown/Restart While there are apps out there that prevent the screen saver and sleep modes, when this app was originally written there weren’t any that prevented Windows from shutting down; additionally we added more extended functionality in apps you won’t find today. Optional/extended functionality also exists to perform custom actions when a shutdown/restart is initiated and prevented by Amphetamine: Ensure pre-configured services are started. Ensure pre-configured programs are running. Run a program/script. Send an email (e.g. to a systems administrator) notifying you of the prevention, so the system can be checked out to ensure proper operation. License: FREE Amphetamine is FREE for all personal and commercial usage. Version 3 Release Notes Both the Amphetamine portable and installer versions are now the same binary and both are capable of the same usage and configuration. Added option to manually check for updates to Amphetamine. Improvements to the Shutdown/Restart prevention: Added Group Policy setting to block Windows Update from initiating automatic reboots when users are logged in. Because this is not guaranteed to prevent automated restarts on non-enterprise editions of Windows in all circumstances, see the following addition. Added blocking of “MusNotification.exe” which prevents Windows 10 from initiating automated restarts due to Windows Update (this also prevents displaying Windows Update notifications, such as updates available or the need for restart after an update is installed.) Added blocking of “shutdown.exe” which many apps will use instead ... |

Caffeine v1.96 Caffeine v1.96 If you have problems with your PC locking or going to sleep, caffeine will keep it awake. It works by simulating a keypress once every 59 seconds, so your machine thinks you're still working at the keyboard, so won't lock the screen or activate the screensaver. The icon is shown above - it's the leftmost one in the task tray, and this is all you see. Double-clicking the icon empties the coffee pot (that's what the icon is) and temporarily disables the program. Double-clicking it again refills the pot, and will keep your machine awake. By default the app starts enabled, and works every 59 seconds. There are some command line switches you can use to alter this behaviour: xx - where xx is a number which sets the number of seconds between simulated keypresses. This must be the first text on the commandline -startoff - application starts disabled. -exitafter:xx - application will terminate after xx minutes -activefor:xx - application will become inactive after xx minutes -inactivefor:xx - application will become active after xx minutes -appexit - terminates current running instance of application -appon - makes the current running instance of the application active -appoff - makes the current running instance of the application inactive -apptoggle - toggles the running state of the current running instance of the application -apptoggleshowdlg - toggles the running state, and shows dialog -replace - closes the current running instance, replacing it -noicon - does not show a task tray icon -useshift - simulate the shift key instead of F15 -showdlg - shows ... |

ExSleep v1.0.0.0 ExSleep v1.0.0.0 A free, portable app to put your computer asleep by clicking an icon. With filters, it can avoid sleeping computer if there are running programs that shouldn't be interrupted. Avoid sleep by mistake One big problem of Windows build-in sleep button is, it always forces computer to sleep, even when there are tasks that shouldn't be interrupted, e.g. downloading. It is very much possible that you just forgot those tasks, at the time when you decided to put your computer to sleep. ExSleep uses filters to avoid the problem. When you launch ExSleep, it first checks all running programs, and won't sleep the computer if there are programs that match any filter. ExSleep doesn't have GUI, so you need to modify the ExSleep.ini directly if you want to use filters, add one or more filters under section [filters], one filter per line. A filter can be: Full pathname (c:\windows otepad.exe) Filename only (notepad.exe) Filename without extension (notepad) Fullpath or filename with wildcards (*pad.exe) Regular expression (regexp:.*\.+pad.exe) * To use regular expression, keyword regexp: must be in front of a filter. Use desktop shortcut You surely can create a shortcut of ExSleep on desktop, so that you can easily use it by double-clicking. You also can use commmand line parameter -h or -hibernate to hibernate system instead of sleeping. Of course if you want, you can create two shortcuts for both sleep and hibernating. For: Windows 7, 8, 10 Note: This file has a few hits on VirusTotal. These are false positives. The program is safe. Some antivirus engines don't like files that force your computer to go to sleep.

Shutdown Logger v1.0 Shutdown Logger v1.0 A tool to record the time and type of all shutdown events of a system (such as shutdown, restart, standby, lock screen, user change and many more) and optionally write them to a log file. In order to make it work, the program has to autostart itself on any new session (a session is started by logging into the desktop and some other events). On each manual program end, you will be asked whether you would like the program to automatically start itself the next run. In most cases, you may answer with "Yes". On the first run, the program will fully show itself. Each next run, the program will be automatically minimized to the system tray. If "Save log to file" is checked, each event will be saved to the log file, which can be found under "ShutdownLogger.log" in the program's root folder. In some cases (e.g. the folder you start the program from requires admin access) the program has to be started as administrator, just to access the log and the settings files. List of events to be logged Session Start: Log On Session End: Log Off Session End: Shutdown Power Mode: Resume Power Mode: Suspend Session Switch: Lock Session Switch: Unlock Session Switch: Console Connect Session Switch: Console Disconnect Session Switch: Remote Control Session Switch: Remote Connect Session Switch: Remote Disconnect Session Switch: Log Off Session Switch: Log On Works in: Windows XP Windows Vista Windows 7 Windows 8 Windows 10 Requires .NET Framework 4.0 or higher to be installed.

sTray v1.0.1 sTray v1.0.1 Tiny, tray-based utility that gives you a completely configurable menu for quick access to: Shutdown Restart Switch user Log off Lock Sleep Hibernate Start screensaver Turn monitor off Switch default printer "I use Microsoft’s Remote Desktop (RDP) a lot for the various computers and VMs that I deal with. RDP works great but has one drawback and that is, for whatever reason Microsoft has, the normal shutdown and reboot commands are missing from the Start Menu when you’re working on a computer remotely. Yes, you can use the shutdown command via the commandline or you can click the taskbar and press Alt-F4, etc, but not everybody is comfortable using the commandline or remembers that hotkey. Hence, this simple utility." -Jody Holmes (Author) Supported OS: Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 Changes: v1.0.1 - 2019-01-22 + Added a printers menu to easily set your default printer.
