I hope you all get a chance to try Sandboxie-Plus.

Because I was bored this morning, I installed a piece of software through Sandboxie-Plus (just ran the setup file) and then ran the installed program, again, through Sandboxie-Plus. I knew the program was very scammy so it was fun to see it trying to do it’s shenanigans but it couldn’t hurt anything. Fun times! I really do need a hobby.

Attention everyone.

If you are installing AbleWord on Windows 10 or 11, you must allow the install of Microsoft .NET when Windows prompts you during the install.

Did Deanna forget to mention this in the article? Yes she did.

Oopsies and sorry.

 

That is Windows prompting to install the required version of .NET if you have windows 10 or 11. This must be allowed for the program to work.

If your Microsoft winget is out of date, do this:

Right-click your Start Button and open Powershell Admin or Terminal Admin.

Type the following and then hit ENTER.

winget install wingetcreate

Let it finish the install.

Hi all,

You may be getting a page not found on the OlderGeeks.com website this morning. Just refresh it a time or two. We’re working on it.

Alex,

The whole purpose of this article was to fill the gap for SUMo going away.

<h4 class=”alert-heading”>Termination notice</h4>
KC Softwares activities are to be terminated by end of October 2023.
All products are to be considered as End-Of-Life (EOL) on October 31st 2023.
Sales are stopped.

WinPE is just the vehicle to get you access to your hard drives and run the portable Backupper. They are getting the same copy as what you or I can download from Microsoft. They even have the download option to get it yourself.

It does not matter the version since you are simply applying an image from a file to a drive.

If you are worried about China, worry about all of your Chinese hardware you are using to respond here. AOMEI has been around a very long time and has a clean track record. I am not going to fault them because of where they were born. They have a good, clean and reliable product. I stand by them.

Hi all. Well, it seems that Uninstalr has some needed fixes before it’s ready for prime time. I am going to pass this all along to the author.  If you can give him a hand and let him know what kind of issues you have had with Uninstalr, I think it would be very helpful to him. Here is the support forum: https://jv16powertools.com/discuss/public/t/uninstalr

I originally tested this program on our usual Windows 10 test machine and on our Windows 11 test laptop with no issues. I still have not been able to reproduce any of the issues since this article came out, but as a precaution, we are going to be disabling the listing on OlderGeeks.com. Perhaps we’ll give the author a chance to sift through the long list of complaints and come out with a fixed version..

I deeply apologize for any issues Uninstalr has caused you.

Send us an email at thegeek@oldergeeks.com so we can do whatever we need to do to help you get back up and running.

Sincerely,

DeannaOlderGeeks.com

The link has not changed. https://uninstalr.com/ and the download has never been removed.

We just updated the version of Essential Office to v2.6.1.  Here are all of the changes since this article was written:
29/08/23 v2.6 Windows 10/11 Dark Mode support added
31/08/23 v2.6.1 Close button added to PDF viewer
French, German and Spanish dictionaries added to Word Processor (default can be set in Options)

It is actually a just portable installer. It’s just dumping all of it’s needed files into a single folder. This folder can be moved anywhere. You can also just select a different location during “install” such as a flash drive.

There is an uninstall process but it’s just deleting the folder.
