It allows to substitute default font in applications allowing it (Office 2010), while keeping the font on the system for the apps needing it (task manager, Office 2013) etc..
3. Replace Explorer
I always felt that starting with Vista/W7, Explorer was being dumbed down (how to I find all source files named *.cs containing some text ????, impossible using W7 explorer)
I use Directory Opus as a replacement
Once you've done that you have a pretty decent W2000 experience on your W8 system
I don't use Tuneup Utility anymore instead started using Iobit's Razer Game Booster
to disable some of window background applications to free resources without affecting to
the full function of NT7 and Chrome.
Also Advance System Care has been uninstalled but Auslogic Bootspeed V6 added.
With Game Booster You have options to disable Windows applications but to enable back
(such as print spool and Window language IME) you need system restart.
So all printing is done after trading or use Teamvierwer to print out from 2nd PC after transferring
files thru Teamviewer.
Another cool thingy that was removed in W8 is the "Previous Versions" tab on files, that allowed you to access up to 63 previous of your files stored in VSS snapshots.
But you can still access the tab by using network access, ie \\localhost\c$
To create a snapshot, you can use vhsadow.exe too lfrom Microsoft.
in a script :
vshadow -p -scsf c:
And tada, new snapshot of c drive, accessible in Previous Versions tab....
