Thanks. Just FYI if you take ownership of HKCR\CLSID say to Admins, and ensure administrators has access to CLSID, just run 7zfm.exe as administrator, then Tools -> Options -> 7-Zip -> and tick Integrate 7-ZIP to shell context menu. To avoid reboot from a non-admin elevated cmd prompt taskkill -im explorer.exe -f explorer.exe (if you run from elevated cmd prompt you may lose ability to launch metro apps until next reboot) |

| Privoxy | Privoxy is a non-caching
web proxy with advanced filtering capabilities for enhancing privacy,
modifying web page data and HTTP headers, controlling access, and
removing ads and other obnoxious Internet junk. Privoxy has a flexible
configuration and can be customized to suit individual needs and
tastes. It has application for both stand-alone systems and multi-user
networks. To use this, start the proxy (or install it as a service -- see Privoxy's user guide) and configure IE to use localhost:8118 (by default) as your HTTP (and/or HTTPS) proxy. At this point both the Desktop (if Protected Mode is enabled) and Metro versions of IE won't be able to connect to the internet; run this in an administrator command prompt: CheckNetIsolation.exe loopbackexempt -a -n=windows_ie_ac_001 CheckNetIsolation.exe loopbackexempt -a -n=windows_ie_ac_122 (The first line is for Metro IE, second line is for Desktop IE) Hope this would save you some CPU power from those pesky web ads! |

| standby | prevent surface rt to
enter standby mode this is a very tiny application to prevent windows rt to enter standby model without changing power plan, so you can control the standby model with task schedular. a typical usage is to prevent standby, do some backup job, restore, which is my original purpose. pay attention, you need the app to be running, otherwise it would take no effect. and hardware power button will also force the device to enter standby mode, which means, this app will also take no effect there are several apps on windows 8 with the same funcationality, hope nothing has been ported to rt. though not tried, it would also work for windows 8. try standby without arguments to show a help. supported commands -set -- set the thread execution state. -time -- sleep for a certain time, say -time 1 means sleep for 1 second. -system -- use system mode. -away -- use away mode. -display -- use display mode. briefly, system mode will prevent to enter standby mode, display mode will also prevent to shutdown the display, away mode will prevent from S3 sleep, if none of three modes are selected, this application will only reset the idel timer. if none of set and time are selected, this application will print this help. a typical usage is -set -system -time 100, to prevent computer from entering standby mode for 100 seconds. or -time 100, to work just as sleep 100s in mingw. for detail about the mode, please refer to http_://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa373208(VS.85).aspx some samples, standby -t 10000 -s -sys -away -- make the machine to enter system + away mode for 10000 seconds standby -t 1 -- sleep for 1 second, usually using in a batch file standby -t 10000 -s -sys -display -- make the machine to enter system mode with display always on for 10000 seconds, usually you should use this app in this way hope it would be helpful, the source code is at http_://geminibranch.codeplex.com/SourceControl/BrowseLatest under standby |

[UPDATED] Remove vim\vim73\libintl.dll. This is included in the vim73rt.zip file, is not compiled for ARM, and is not part of the vim source distribution. 4. run vim\vim73\install.exe.
