JIMW I have absolutely no issue with this product and its interface does look friendly. However their does seem to be a huge number of single purpose file utilities both free and fee based that do a single thing. In my own experience I have frequently download these, used it one or twice, and forgotten it . Over the years I have garnered a multitude of these utilities, mostly free ones, that land up taking up a lot of space on my hard drive that I have forgotten their purpose until I open them. I rarely purchase "one trick pony" fee based utilities since I find their primary value lies in subsidizing the developers programming education. I also take issue with the 'bait and switch' tactics of some developer to initially offer the product for free in rough form then to add a fee for the update that polishes it form and function. If the developer intends to charge a fee for the product, it initial release should be labeled a 'Beta' and the future charge should be noted from the beginning. That is what I believe is ethical. Experience has also shown me that frequently, be it free or fee based, single purpose utilities offer a release and perhaps a couple of updates, and then are completely abandoned by their developers, leaving the user or purchaser having to seek a eplacement product. Please not that the above comments is not a reflection on this developer or their product. If you only need such a tool as this, this product may very well be just what you are looking for. It is just seeing yet another single file utility hit my 'hot button' and I chose to make this comment at this time. For those that are looking for more functionality than this product offers; wish to avoid the disk space and confusion of multiple single purpose utilities; and the 'bait and switch' tactics that some of the other initially free product developers have produced, I would suggest taking a look at "File Buddy." It is a reasonably priced fee based product that has replaced most if not all my other file utilities. I have found it to encompass most if not all the features that individual products offer, good stability, and a long history of reasonable support and upgrades at a fair price. It is not for everyone however as its interface can be a bit complex for unsophisticated/inexperienced users and is overkill if you just temporarily need to repeatedly do a single function. But it does seem to be a well written program that does it all. That is why I added it to the list of alternate suggestions - not to cast aspersions on this product, but as a solution for those looking for a good alternative to single function file utilities.
