DiskLED is Now Open Source

DiskLED is a tool I wrote a while ago that displays performance counter data using an animated system tray icon. It comes with a graphical configuration dialog that lets you choose from all performance counters available on the local system – you can monitor network throughput just as easily as hard disk activity or memory usage.

There still seems to be a decent userbase - after all, DiskLED works on Windows 10 just as well as it did on XP. I sometimes get requests for new features or modifications. Unfortunately, I do not have the time for that. But I am more than happy to comply with Brian H’s request to make DiskLED open source.

You can find DiskLED’s source code on GitHub. Have fun!

Free Tool to Help You Better Understand What is Inside a Citrix License File

Update: Version 1.1 supports XenDesktop Licenses in Addition to XenApp Licenses Most Citrix products rely heavily on license files. While the basic format of a license file is somewhat documented, most fields used in license files are not. This makes understanding their contents difficult. It does not help that the license files can hardly be called readable with most of the relevant data in one long line.

Free Tool - List Registry Links (REG_LINK)

Recently I got into a very interesting discussion with my colleague Nicholas Dille on various aspects of Windows x64. One question he brought up was especially intriguing: knowing about registry redirection, it is not astonishing to find that the 32-bit version of the registry key HKLM\Software\Classes (aka HKCR) gets to be HKLM\Software\Classes\Wow6432Node. But there is also HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Classes!? How can there be two different Wow6432Node 32-bit keys for one 64-bit key?

Filebrowser to Be Archived. Migrate to a Modern Alternative: Sambee
Filebrowser is being archived. As the author writes, the codebase dates back to when he was but 15 years old. Having created such a popular file management tool is a more than impressive achievement for anyone, let alone a teenager. However, when it comes to security and reliability, Filebrowser seems to be built on a less than ideal foundation, so much so that the author states:
