Has any of you used TweakVI for Vista yet? I was very fond of TweakUI and used it for years with XP but I haven't seen a lot of user feedback with the Vista version. I'd be curious to hear what some of you think.

Hi UncleW.



I have used TweakVI...but only once. I set up Shutdown Windows and Restart Windows shortcut icons on my Desktop. However, I already had a quick restart option, iReboot.

I have a Dual Boot system (Windows Vista and Windows XP). When in Windows Vista, if I want to restart the computer and come back into Windows Vista, I use the shortcut icons created from TweakVI. Conversely, if I want to restart the computer and open Windows XP, I use iReboot.

Here is a snippet of my Desktop showing the shortcut icons: (Click on the image to enlarge it.)

Thanks MPH. I was reading over in Lifehacker that "half the features require you to subscribe to one of the premium versions". I've also read a few negative reviews on this utility so I was wondering if it was worth downloading. I appreciate your perspective.
