X-Setup Pro 9.0 - Overview

The mother of all tweaker

Classic mode

X-Setup Pro is a so-called "tweaker" program; it allows you to change settings that are normally hidden deeply in Windows fast and easily. There are many hidden settings in Windows as well as in a lot of other programs and normally you can't change them.

X-Setup Pro knows 1,900 of these settings and displays them in an easy to use interface, grouped by several aspects (Figure 1). Simply choose what you want to tweak, select the setting in question, make your change and hit the "Apply" button. It's that easy.

Even if you normally not consider changing hidden settings since you simply want to have your computer up and working, give X-Setup Pro a try.
