Vivaldi release v1.0

Vivaldi 1.0: Not for everybody, just you

We have Total Commander at my job. I’m very pleased with it and use it every day in my work. I find it very stable and easy to use.

For personal use at home I prefer Dolphin and Krusader. They are both very powerful file managers.

I do not want cloud backup. I have a service and am happy with it.

I do not want imaging backup. Tried it and didn’t like it.

I want a program that will backup the files I specify efficiently (without insanely slowly down the system), on a schedule, and with some decent options (exact copy, plain copy, versions, etc.).

I have used a program I liked (SecondCopy) for at least a dozen years. Never thought I would change. But they are now on beta 4 on Version 9 – after starting on beta 1 some 7-8 months ago.

It is still plagued with nagging problems. I keep trying it, finally uninstall the beta and reinstalling version 8. This is getting tiresome.

It is time to look for an option.

However, I am not having any luck. I keep find online backups and imaging software. But I don’t want either.

Ideas?

I would appreciate your guidance.

Hugh

good catch ;-)

@spwolf:

it seems to be just a reskin of Chrome… for some reason I thought it would be just using the chrome engine, not all of Chrome.

Right back when they announced that they would be using chromium/blink they implied that was going to be the only change, the front-end would remain the same. Now they say they are building the interface from the ground up.

I feel they have bitten off more than they can chew and most things are not possible using chromium/blink and a lot of what should be core functions are going to be relegated to extensions. The antithesis of Opera Presto.

@Jr:

For backup my documents i use cobian backup for some years. Ones everything is set, it runs by itself and the user don’t have to worry that there will be a failure with the backup.
Are there people who uses cobian backup or is everyone using PA backup?

I use PA Backup every day and it’s never let me down so I’ve no need to try any other back up program. Did install cobian on a friends computer once but I wasn’t overly impressed (it looked horrible too in my opinion) and installed something else instead.
@Jr:

Now i’m using the standard version of PA, but scheduling the backup is the only thing that i’m not satisfied about.

If you want it improved you can do something about that, as that is what the Wishlist forum is for. ;)

You mean something like google analytics ?

Maybe Win Blue will change the tide… and haswell :-)

@moles42:

I hope it’s a good move…:)
it was always my preferred browser…:)

Time will tell Moles. :)
I remember you had a problem a few builds ago. :(

@Sir:

:-D you know… i thought while driving home what kind of answers you would come up with.

And I was bang on about you mentioning Vinyl. :)

Wasn’t difficult to guess, everyone knows that nothing beats the rich sound of vinyl. :cool:
@Sir:

you have shed some light on what has been a dark day.

I aim to please. :D

Hi,

If you have ccleaner and the winap2.ini file if you copy and paste the below script I wrote it will give you an option to clear all recent files including backup scripts.

CCleaner does include PowerArchiver but it is prior 2009 and doesnt include the latest versions recent history. Hense why i wrote this.

success…:)
thanks again…:)

Or just wait for Opera 11.61 ;)

Well it has a lot more. But yes it has a different GUI and latest drivers…

Check http://blogs.msdn.com/b/b8/

thanks 'mwb1100 for the in-depth explanation…it’s much appreciated…I will investigate further.

@Sir:

Ok, what is this PB Richy…

I just thought it was a shorthand for “ProBably” (as in when/if he gets a new PC) :confused:

Mango is out. Build 7720.

Just waiting for PA to support it.

saw that the other day

Fake Real Apple new. For a good laugh…
http://www.scoopertino.com/

And for the Apple Fan Boys I recommend the iBox. :D

Something else for the new web site then. ;)

@TBGBe:

Not as such, but as PowerArchiver is Windows only; it is assumed that most members will be using Windows.

Yea, I tend to think of it as people or users not limited to Windows only – Helping users to get their computers up and running brought me to a lot of ‘places’ – need to learn them before I could give support –

Linux is free and also has a lot of free software, but that doesn’t mean that it’s the best platform for all users. If you use your computer for playing games, then Windows is a much better platform.

had to switch from buggy avast to avira

:):)

:)

thanks for the feedback but I don’t have any recollection of installing such software on my system.
I search my archived programs on dvd and there’s no record of it there either.
I’ll just have to keep searching for an answer.

thanks again,

Mike.

i think miranda’s interface is complicated for everyone ;-)

TBGBe…thanks buddy…it was useful information indeed…however even after following the detailed steps they still failed to show my fonts…:(
I have however since solved the issue by installing an image taken with acronis true image back in November of last year…I had to update a lot of stuff after restoring the image but it was much better than starting from scratch.
thanks again for taking the time to reply buddy.

Mike.

thank you Richard for the in-depth info regarding my needs…it’s appreciated…:)

I’m using PowerArchiver on Windows 7 now, and those two get along nicely. Windows 7 is much better than XP and Vista IMO and has some cool security features like AppLocker and BitLocker-to-Go.

Need for speed+I=plaing forever

My wallpapers are more cooler, doubts?

As a simple user i can say that Vista is very quick system but it need a lot of free place on pc that not everybody can provide

My wallpapers are more cooler, doubts?

blog oppotunity for posting is more intersting

My wallpapers are more cooler, doubts?

well, i got a 2.4 gb .iso and i need to make it smaller
how?

That’s the way I like it! :D This was a little scary virus though, because anti-virus didn’t detect it for months. Whoops. :eek:

Hi,

For those who are Fellow Avast! Users it has been I thought that you would like to know that Version 5 will be released sometime in Octobter “If Alpha & Beta Testing goes well” They have redesigned the user interface and create re branded their suites.

A Free Home Edition “as displayed”
B. Paid proffesional version “Avast Proffesional”
C. Avast Security Suite “with firewall”

The Avast Security Suite includes a firewall for the 1st time in ages!

This is something that I personally have been talking to Avast too about with the last 4 years!! As previsoly I have had to use their software for virus protection and then a brand like ZoneAlarm free for a basic firewall with inbound and outbound protection.

skypx…PM’d you.

@Sir:

Agree 100% Office 2007’s Ribbon Interface is great once you get used to it.

I am already pushing the IT department to move onto 2007 at work. However, it is the training cost that is expensive as well as the time involved.

This is one of the main areas I love about PA 2007 “the ribbon interface!” I just wish the configuration screen was back the way it was in beta and not the way it is now.

Or atleast a choice.

while we are bring 2 year old threads, config is cool again :-)

Davidsplash I 100% agree with you! With the online registration part it is and continues to be a royal pain in the backside! of which wont change.

However, there are work arounds that if you havnt tried already take note as its reduces the problem.

1. When upgrading/installing clean windows xp vista dont register untill the last week.

2. Download or obtain Service Packs CD’s and install them before using windows update this keeps windows clean from fragmented updates which CAN and DO cause glitches despite what people say.

3. Create a backup of all your Drivers use a program such as “Driver Genius” and keep it archived. This means you can roll out upgrades for same spec systems far faster and in theory you have already tested the drivers and know 100% they work without problems.

Once all the above is done and you are happy with the stability you can either register windows or format the system start from scratch but this time use the Driver Genius backup files to update your system with all the known and trusted drivers.

on another note through testing Windows 7 Microsoft are really pushing the boat out on making this OS backward system compatible. Meaning if you use 2000/XP it will work without significant impact.

They are developing an inteligant code which looks at the system specs and only installs required components needed to run. Unlike Vista where it installs everything but then disables the features if your system isnt up to stratch and the problem is it is still their in the background hoging up space and memmory!!

This is being offered for free - today only!!

Check http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/

Haven’t tried it yet but it sounds as if it might be useful - especially free.

I like it. It seems stable, but so did XP. I’m not going to upgrade my older computers to it, but I don’t have a problem with buying it on any new machines. Over the last month or so, there has been deveral driver updates released for my laptop, which fixed minor issues.

I would say by this Fall, there wouldn’t be much of reason not to buy a machine with Vista on it, yet I can honestly say I don’t see any reason to upgrade a machine to Vista. XP works great and is just as stable.

The only thing that I have found that I don’t like about Vista is the User Control protection thingy that pops up. I’ve thought more than once about turning it off, but I’m trying to get ‘use’ to it. In the end, I wouldn’t be suprised if I end up disabling this feature, just to dog gone annoying.

At work, I was trying to configure Flash Get 1.8 to be able to use the proxy , but I did not get it works, I do not what mistake I have done, any advice ?

I am planning to use Nessus (installed on Desktop) at work (production devices)

1- Is there any difference between Nusse Linux platform and Windows Platform ?
2- Is it a good idea to use more than one monitoring tools on different PCs, like Nusses on one PC and SolarWinds on other PC or ?
3- Does using Nusses (Linux or windows) affect any network devices (Cisco devices, hp servers, etc )
4- Is it necessary the PC which has got Nessus installed on it, to join AD domain ?

Free Download Manager here. All that I need. :D

at least we agree that software venders that disable features reduce the possibility that a user will purchase their program.

And may I make it clear that Cracks, Serials are illigal and ruin the software market for everyone.

If you like a program buy it because just like everything in this world “supply and demand comes into effect” the more demand the cheaper the products get. “unless the developer gets gready and decides to up it anyways!”

In your context “compressing” has a different meaning to the compression offered by PowerArchiver.

Most popular “media formats” are already compressed and will not give you any saving of disk space if you try to Zip or 7-zip etc them.
@effigy233:

… I ripped dvds to folders and they have VOB files …

As spwolf answered, you can save space by ripping to a different format.
For more details/ideas refer:
http://www.dvdripguides.com/
http://www.doom9.org/

Note: mpeg2 / mpeg4 are “compressed” formats.
@effigy233:

…I copied all my music to my computer…

Again depends on the file type/format.
Maybe converting from e.g. .wav to .wma or .mp3 would reduce filesize without a noticible loss of quality.
Note: wma / mp3 are “compressed” formats.
@effigy233:

…i have stored … pictures …

Again depends on the file type/format.
If your pictures are “bit mapped” ( .bmp) then converting to .jpg or .png will reduce the filesize without a noticible loss of quality.
Note: .jpg / .png are “compressed” formats.

When your dvds, pictures, music is converted into one of the compressed formats, further attempts to compress the files using e.g. Zip or 7z could actually INCREASE the amount of disk space required.

The only way to reduce disk space further would be to collect them into a single file or groups of files (improving the actual block size used on the hard disk); for this you could try TAR format - with NO compression.
@effigy233:

… i have stored programs …

Do you mean the program installation (setup) files or the actual folder(s) from e.g. “Program Files” folder.

Most setup files are already compressed and so the above warnings apply again.

Of course, after converting/compressing, to then view/play your files, you will need sufficient free disk space to allow the extraction from the archive first.

I use Microsoft Office 2007 :cool:

Yes, use the Search / Advanced Search tool on the main Powerarchiver Forums Header(Toolbar).

Tip: use “outlook plug-in” rather than “outlook add-on”
as that is name of the PowerArchiver “tool”.

it is basically for managing speedstep - you can micromanage speedstep settings of your mobile cpu.

most definetly must haves… industry standards.

PDFCreator. Use it home and atour church. Works great! Easy to setup and use.
