FileTiger 2.0!

FileTiger is back with version 2.0, featuring support for Windows 10, and its newest feature of font size control! FileTiger is a high-powered backup and synchronization tool for Windows that helps you keep your information and projects up-to-date. It can be used to organize your files so that the data is all together and makes moving that data to removable drives easier!

FileTiger’s newest feature, font size control, can be seen below. Watch as the font goes up and up and up and then back down again. Weeeeeee!

Windows 10 Preview is Available, and What 8 Should Have Been. So Far…

Windows 10 Menu

The preview of Windows 10 is available for download now from http://preview.windows.com. The standard reminder applies–this is for testing. It’s a beta operating system, with all the “We will not be blamed if you lose it.” that implies. The real thing isn’t this, and the shipping date isn’t announced yet.

After only a quick install and some exploring, this looks like what a hybrid interface should have been. The interface-formerly-known-as-Metro, or ‘live tiles’, or the ‘modern desktop’, hasn’t shown up at all. Apps are available from the desktop, and sizable, and they don’t break if your local sign-in to the computer was a local account–you can sign into them with a Microsoft account individually.

So far, so good.
