Yes, @dwall said he likes Corel Paint Shop Pro, which was originally distributed by Jasc. I used it until it was sold to Corel.

I used PSP 2018, v20, for a long time -- then I was offered a discount to upgrade to PSP 2022 -- but when I installed it, it took up GBs of storage! So, I uninstalled it and went back to 2018 -- which takes less than 250MB of storage.

PSP 7.04 Anniversary Edition...

Jasc Paint Shop Pro 7 - 10th Anniversary Edition (ISO) : Jasc Software Inc. : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive

Fixed ISO version of Jasc Paint Shop Pro 7.04 by @sketch_the_cow.Original: https://archive.org/details/Jasc_Paint_Shop_Pro_v7.04_Win95_2001_Eng

PSP 9.01

Jasc Paint Shop Pro v9.01 (Windows)(2004)(Eng) : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive

Jasc Paint Shop Pro v9.01 (Windows)(2004)(Eng).Contents of this ISO have been verified with ISOBuster; the ISO image is valid.

archive.org

In both cases, download the ISO image and save it to your desktop.
Then MOUNT the image.

Open the mounted Image and then open either the hidden (PSP9 > Paint Shop Pro 9 folder in the PSP 9.01 ISO) or the (PSP folder in the PSP 7.04), and right click the .msi installer (which will be at the bottom), and choose: Install. That's it, and it's legal... now.

Animation shop install "with" PSP 7.04 automatically.
For Animation Shop in PSP 9.01, you'll have to separately run the Jasc Animation Shop 3.msi installer in the PSP9 folder.

You installed it incorrectly. See above.

If you install from the normal setup.exe, you'll get the trial. You need to find the hidden .msi installer.

I just did it for both the PSP 7.04 Anniversary and the PSP 9.01

For PSP 9.01 ...each of these folders has it's own .msi installer that needs to be run separately.
Even the autorun.exe will not work. You'll still get the trial.
The 1st time you run PSP 9.01, you'll have to close out of a few boxes. They won't return.

This all assumes you use the links I provided in this post.
They are to the actual ISOs of the CDs. I also scanned them locally and at Virustotal. They are 100% clean.

And last but certainly not least, you can disable that UGLY splash screen at PSP startup...

i downloaded the v7 ISO and installed it by using the .msi file.

I downloaded the V7 file and installed it in Win 11 using the .msi file. It installed fine and works. There are some options that are very dated though. Like file sizes for jpegs according to internet speed. I'll keep it for now. I have always used IrfanView as my primary editor and Paint.net for the things IrfanView can't do.

Almost forgot...

Tired of Macrium's "16 digit ImageID prefix", attached to the names of your backups? Well there is a solution...

Macrium: Remove ImageID prefix, once and for all... - Windows 10 Help Forums

If you want to UNcheck this box (#4), once and for all... read on. I just spent a week complaining to the Macrium folk about this. After all that time they finally linked a little quickie program (portable), that unchecks the ImageID box... for good. Here

I honestly get virtually the same results with either one.

I'm surprised by that statement. The last time I checked Bing (not too long ago), it wasn't good enough for me. I found Google Search far better in terms of relevance of results.

I find it can be hit or miss with Bing. A lot depends on what you're searching for. Bing is certainly much more accurate and powerful than it used to be just a couple of years ago

LOL. I never use the voice functions on anything. I just feel foolish talking to a machine.

Agree 100%. Apart from feeling stupid, there is also the privacy risk of tech constantly listening to you in the background.

It is a Great list but I only use Two on the OP's list. Revo (PRO) and Notepad ++.

Thanks. Why don't you list the ones you use so we can check them out, and may be include them in the OP?

For volume controller I'd go for Ear Trumpet from the Store.

Yes it is. I used to hate it but it's come a long way. Not just for standard search but I do a lot of online shopping and Bing, combined with Edge, gives very useful info on where the best deals are.

Hi,
Not sure why he posted that link
It's simply about John this forums owner creating a new twelveforums website

Windows 12 - Microsoft starts work from March

No, it's not a typo. According to our information, Microsoft will start preparing for Windows 12 in March. In the run-up, they had already been looking for employees who would then provide additional support to the team. SwiftOnSecurity also confirms this information. That doesn't mean that...
