It's much more than a Hex Editor and probably overkill, but it's very configurable and a pleasure to look at.

Re: Good Freeware Stuff
I have many different compilers and IDE enviroments and sometimes one of those programs updates and changes my path variables. It can be anoying when you work with mutiple versions of GCC, ffmpeg, etc...
Anyway to make sure all environment paths are pointing where they need to be I use Rapid Environment Editor, "rapidee". It is portable and free:

Re: Good Freeware Stuff
OHHH!! One really great freeware image/video/text viewer is "Irfanview":
https://www.irfanview.com/
Used it for many years and love it for image viewing and minor editing .
It opens text as an image which is a little strange and gags on binaries.

It will search just inside this thread.
BTW: I like it, too bad you can't change the font size, on a 4K display it's small.

Thank you Luis, I overlooked that detail, then again until last year I would look at the fuzzy bars below people's names wondering why they were fuzzy until someone asked how many posts per microchip. =[]=

I've been using an old free promotional copy of Paint Shop Pro since win 95 era but this photofiltre looks to be way more sophisticated.
I just hope I can learn to use it.

I clicked the "Download" button and switched to version 11. Now I downloaded version 7, and it's a really good free editor.
