Windows Vista utilities

This page is dedicated to discussing any system utilities that are released for the Windows Vista operating system.

There were a TON of utilities released for Windows XP and we fully expect for the same to happen with Vista.

Based on our research, a bunch of companies have already started working actively on upgrading their current system utility programs to get ready for Vista.

It's going to be fun to see...

 

Tweak Vista

Tweak Vista makes it easy to tweak and customize Windows Vista Beta December CTP. TweakVista allows easy access to the new features built into Windows Vista, formerly known as Windows Codename Longhorn.

Sysinternals Debugview

DebugView is an application that lets you monitor debug output on your local system, or any computer on the network that you can reach via TCP/IP. It is capable of displaying both kernel-mode and Win32 debug output, so you don’t need a debugger to catch the debug output your applications or device drivers generate, nor do you need to modify your applications or drivers to use non-standard debug output APIs.

The Sysinternals web site was created in 1996 by Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell to host their advanced system utilities and technical information. Microsoft acquired Sysinternals in July, 2006. Whether you’re an IT Pro or a developer, you’ll find Sysinternals utilities to help you manage, troubleshoot and diagnose your Windows systems and applications.
