gExplore




lets you manage your Google Docs from the Desktop

If you're looking for a way to manage your Google Docs without the need to sign in via your web browser, gExplore can help you out. It allows you to upload and download files in your Google Docs account directly from Windows, and even send PDFs to your Amazon Kindle.

In addition to standard uploading and download, you can also encrypt files before sending them over to Google Docs, edit collections, share files and collections with other users, add notes to files, run permission audits to see full sharing details on each of your files, email files, and send PDF copies to your Amazon Kindle. Although the web interface for Google Docs is pretty robust, it can be a lot faster to upload and download files with gExplore. If you're looking to save some time, or just prefer a desktop interface, it's a free download that's worth a look.

JPG To PDF Converter Free
JPG To PDF Converter Free 1.0 ...
... is a user friendly document conversion tool that allows you to convert your JPG images into PDF files. It can convert NOT ONLY the JPG files, but also a lot of other image file formats to PDF, including PNG, GIF, BMP, TIF, TIFF, PCX, PSD etc. The app lets you convert images individually or in a batch operation depending on your requirement. If you need to convert a massive amount of images present in multiple locations on your PC, JPG to PDF Converter Free lets you easily perform the conversion. Other than converting the images, you can also add metadata to the generated PDF files, such as Title, Author, Subject and Keyword.

During installation, you are asked for permissions to install Babylon toolbar and set Babylon search as your homepage. Uncheck the options before continuing with your installation to avoid installing any junk toolbars.
It works on all 32/64-bit versions of Windows.

UndoClose
UndoClose 1.1 ...
... is a portable tool which makes it easy to reopen the last application or Explorer folder you've closed.

Why bother? You might easily close an Explorer folder, then realise a moment later that you need it again. Normally this means you'll have to relaunch a new instance of Explorer, then browse once more to the relevant folder. But with UndoClose running in the background, all you have to do is press Ctrl+Shift+F and that folder will immediately be reopened for you. (And the hotkey is customisable, so if it's inconvenient then you can easily change it to something else.)

And it's the same story with applications. If you close one down and realise you've made a mistake, press Ctrl+Shift+A and it'll be reopened. (Although this is less useful as it won't restore the last document. If you save "document.txt" in Notepad, close the program and press Ctrl+Shift+A, say, then Notepad will reopen with a blank page; if you need to look at "document.txt" again then you'll need to reopen it manually.)

You can even reuse the hotkeys multiple times, so for example pressing Ctrl+Shift+F three times in succession will open the last 3 folders you've closed.

Although if you can't quite remember what you need, it might be easier to simply open the UndoClose settings dialog. This displays a list of all your recently closed folders and apps, and you can relaunch any of these with a speedy double-click.
