Administrator Popular Post DKT27 Posted February 20 Administrator Popular Post Share Posted February 20 On our forums, members post certain types of topics quite often. Those topics include, what are your favorite software or what software do you like, what software do you recommend. So we thought, why don't we make an official pinned topic ourselves. Starting with this one. Staff will make a new topic every year. Members are free to post their favorite / recommended software that they want. They are free to not only post them, but also discuss them openly in a polite manner. Why every year? Because new software come every year. So it helps others find new ones. With this topic, posting duplicate / similar topics will not be allowed. They will be closed. So, tell us, what's your favorite software. List them. My favorite ones: Affinity by Canva - Great image editor, now base features are free. Attribute Changer - Change file creation / modification date. AnyDesk - Remote desktop manager.

Lannes Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 9 minutes ago, JeepWillys58 said: Hi dear friend @Lannes Did you have it with same medicine? Thanks in advanced I use the free version. It's enough for my needs. I only use TMM for movies, so I don't need the advanced options... For series, documentaries, etc., I use FileBot, which is much more flexible and allows me to easily match files! (Plus, there's no need to provide an API key...). You can easily find a medicine for FileBot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
