To fill out forms, simply use the typewriter tool in the freeware portable version.

Alternatively, MS word versions from 2013 and above, can convert PDF into Word format, which you can edit as needed. You can then save the document as a Word file or as a PDF document again.

NET Framework isn't necessary for this program (even despite the .NET in name)

2018: Fails on my Win XP. Description says it is XP compatible with .NET4
Sick of trying to find something that *just* works.
Gonna find a crack for QODBC 7.1 Be a damned lot easier!

Opening the download page of EmEditor automatically starts downloading the installers (x32 or x64 depending on user's system). I added direct download links to portable versions.

Nice tool. Should accept copy&pasted JSON-Data too.
Would be even better, if it could produce JSON classes for C#, VB.NET from the JSON data.

I would suggest to use online json viewer http://codebeautify.org/jsonviewer

Windows Registry Recovery v3.1.2 Updated

Ennovy on 14 Feb 2024
  • 2MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 14 Feb 2024
  • Suggested by AlephX

Windows Registry Recovery allows to directly read files containing Windows registry hives and extract many useful information about the configuration and windows installation settings of the host machine.

Note that the program is not simply a registry editor: it works with other tools, including exported keys. It’s useful for seeing registry issues, sandboxing tools, and diagnostics. To your own computer's registry files, open a NTUSER.DAT system file but keep in mind that these are usually hidden by Windows to avoid accidental deletion.

A few operational changes in v1.10.0 I've noticed:

Loads more quickly (my perception)
It does Booklet correctly.
Split pages works easier.
New feature: Merge Pages (onto the same sheet)!

Cornflower on 2024-01-11 05:11

This note on the download page:

(As the Windows binaries of version 1.10.0 are supplied with Python 3.10, they are not released with 1.10.1. Windows users should keep using version 1.10.0)

64bit version from https://sourceforge.net/projects/winmerge/files/alpha/2.15.2/ can be used to replace 32 bit folder in PortableApps.com version. So far no problems with it. Renamed original file, just in case.

JohnTHaller on 2018-08-12 17:56

PAFUser: For a better experience, use WinMerge 2011 Portable. WinMerge 2011 is a continuation fork of WinMerge that is regularly updated. Our portable package includes the 32-bit and 64-bit versions and switches between them.
