Fix Settings1.1

It’s a very well known fact that Windows is far from being the perfect OS, and it proves this once and again with the latest release. As it can take some time for updates from Microsoft to roll out, individuals take matters into their own hands and build applications like Fix Settings, which gives you full control over some general Windows features.

Can be used on the go

The application comes with an advantage you get to witness first-hand. After downloading, you don’t have to invest any time nor effort into a setup process, because it can perfectly run. This means you can use it on other PCs as well directly from an USB Flash drive, but be sure to check whether or not .NET Framework is installed on the host PC.Running it brings up a compact window that displays all operations you can perform. The visuals don’t stand out from the crowd through any particular elements, but it does manage to keep everything clear, because of the contrasting colors used. Moreover, this also helps easily differentiate on from off functions.

Toggle system and visual features

If the name tricked you into believing you get something fixed, then you’re in for a disappointment. What the application actually does is bundle up several Windows areas, letting you activate and deactivate them at the press of a button. There are also functions to disable/enable all of them at once, but be sure to make a backup of your system before trying this out.It can come in handy for parental control on a local PC, because it can turn off some important features, such as Task Manager, the Run utility, the Command Prompt, Control Panel, Shutdown function, Config, and Registry Editor. In addition, some visual tweaks like Folder Options, Desktop, Super Hidden settings, File Extensions, Hidden files, Search, and System Restore are also at your disposal.

In conclusion

On an ending note, Fix Settings wasn’t quite the surprise we were hoping to find, since the name suggests otherwise. Even so, it manages to get the job done good, although there’s a chance it might not properly work on latest Windows builds. Giving you control over important management and visual functions, this application deserves a try overall.
