Windows UtilitiesThis page lists a few useful utilities for use within Microsoft Windows. Links to each utility are included within their descriptions.
Microsoft Kernel ToysMicrosoft Kernel Toys comprises a set of utilities for power users. They are designed for use with Windows 95 only. However, the Key Remap utility will work equally as well with Windows 98. You should not use any of the other utilities unless you're sure they're safe. I can only advise on the Key Remap as I have that working on Windows 98. Microsoft Power ToysMicrosoft Power Toys is a set of useful extras for Windows 95. CtrlPlus Key Remap UtilityCtrlPlus by Yoji Hagiya will swap the Ctrl and Caps Lock keys in Windows. In addition, version 1.1 will also add WordStar navigation key commands to the Word menus when used alongside the WordStar Command Emulator. It will also add basic WordStar navigation commands to all other Windows programs. There are seperate versions for Windows 98 (8kb Zip file) and Windows 2000 (34kb Zip file). Alternative downloads from the developer's own site are: for Windows 98 and for Windows 2000. Microsoft Key Remap UtilityThis is part of the Windows 95 Kernel Toys set.
