Very nice little program. Swiss army knife of HD software.

I was worried that this program writes to the registry (HKLM\HDTune), but you can avoid this by NEVER changing the default options/configurations. You can look at the options, just DO NOT click OK. There are very few options anyways and the default options are fine.

The only registry entries left will be the regular entries for recently used documents, recent files, MRU, etc. But these cannot be avoided because they are Microsoft generated.

Neither HDTune 2.53, nor HDTune Pro 3.50 ever detected the SMART parameters of my internal laptop drive (a Hitachi HTS721060G9SA00). HDDScan and CrystalDiskInfo detected them fine.

Softpedia has a portable version:

not listed on the HDTune website afaik.

Is TabbyWare (TabbyFile) dead?

The website tabbyware.com is dead.

I found it available at Softpedia, and Brothersoft.

http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/tabbyFile-Download-39802.html

I have added these to the entry (Softpedia because of the description).

@I am Baas - thanks:)

http://www.registrytweaker.net/ --> domain for sale. The website and download links should be changed to Lupo as above. Softpedia has the same build on their site (http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Registry-Tweak/Registry-Tweaker.shtml) but I'm not sure if Lupo's is different.

Site is for sale, not sure I want to try/use software that no longer has a website/support site. Just my 2¢. Not sure if webmaster wants to delete this program from the list of programs in their database.

SpyMe Tools is still available from http://www.softpedia.com/get/PORTABLE-SOFTWARE/System/System-Enhancements/Windows-Portable-Applications-Portable-SpyMe-Tools.shtml ...

I finally decided to give BartPE a try so that I could make a bootable Ghost 8 CD, but when I would go to boot the finished CD, the damn thing would freeze at the "please wait" bar every time.

I spent my whole weekend trying to get it to work.

No matter what options I enabled/disabled and no matter what files I added or removed, it would still freeze at that "please wait" bar.

What a waste of time!

I ended up going with HawkPE.
Unfortunately, it doesn't enable CD/DVD burning support in Ghost, but at least the thing boots.

Well, I decided to try one more thing before giving up on BartPE.

I tried using my friend's Windows XP disk instead of mine and it worked.

My disk was version 2600.1152 (SP2)

and his disk was version 2600.1106 (SP1)

I can't believe I was unable to find any support anywhere related to freezing with certain XP versions.
BartPE has been around a long time now ... it seems like someone must have known about this problem.

Hopefully I don't encounter any more mystery bugs!

No longer available from Developer.

 
To get around the fact of it being an installer, if you rename it to *.cab instead of *.exe it will open in any common archive expander. From there you can extract the TweakUI.exe file and run it separately.

Fixed.

Webfork, HFS does provide upload features...

marcoc, not ftp, web based only.

Although a great program to transfer a few files over the network, this program failed when transferring very large (over a gig) files over a network. I recommend instead Filezilla Server included in XAMPP (http://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=1069.
