Thank-you for posting the warning about CleanSweep. I wasn't aware of any issues surrounding this package. My experience with Norton's software has been mostly positive.
I've been annoyed for some time about the way programs install on Windows machines. I miss the days when each package installed in its own folder, stored all its data in a sub-folder, and displayed any and all changes made in areas beyond its boundaries such as PATH, .SYS and .BAT files used by the system.
Another thing I miss is software coming with a list of EVERY file and the purpose it serves.
While I'm at it, I miss paper documentation.
And don't forget a list of each and every parameter, switch, and option available for every program. Today's software seems to have experienced a population explosion of options, settings, parameters, and configurations, only to omit any indication of what they are.
Cheers, PW. |
