Backing up installed applications before buying a new PC or installing a fresh copy of Windows on the system is always recommended. What if you couldn’t find installers of applications which you are intending to use on new system? Problems get much bigger when saved settings and preferences of important applications have to be ported as well. Apparently, there is no direct way to port installed applications with all the preferences to a new system. You can go for application virtualizers available out there which can make installed applications portable, such as, Enigma Virtual Box, but we think that you’d be better off using PickMeApp for this very purpose. It’s a portable utility which is capable of capturing personalized applications with all the saved preferences, so users can easily use them on newly purchased systems without hassling with lengthy installations followed by setting preferences.

In such scenario, preparing each client machine for seamless data sharing will be rather difficult, until you use portable Dukto R4 for transferring data. While it supports multiple types of OS platforms, the application offers the easiest way of sharing data between systems connected over network. No matter which OS you’re using (Windows, Mac, or Linux), sharing can be initiated without configuring any sort of permissions, firewall, protocols and settings from either ends (server or clients). It can discover all the connected clients, allowing you to transfer files via simple drag & drop. Apart from transferring files, it also lets you send text messages to connected users while maintaining a log of transferred files and text for verification purposes. In Windows 7, it makes use of taskbar progress bar to let user check the amount of data which has been transferred. Read More
