WINDOWS XP HIDDEN APPS:

3) Clipboard Viewer = clipbrd.exe (views contents of Windows clipboard)

4) Dr Watson = drwtsn32.exe (Troubleshooting tool)

5) DirectX diagnosis = dxdiag.exe (Diagnose & test DirectX, video & sound
cards)

6) Private character editor = eudcedit.exe (allows creation or modification
of characters)

7) IExpress Wizard = iexpress.exe (Create self-extracting / self-installing
package)

8) Microsoft Synchronization Manager = mobsync.exe (appears to allow
synchronization of files on the network for when working offline. Apparently
undocumented).

very basic).

10) ODBC Data Source Administrator = odbcad32.exe (something to do with
databases)

11) Object Packager = packager.exe (to do with packaging objects for
insertion in files, appears to have comprehensive help files).

12) System Monitor = perfmon.exe (very useful, highly configurable tool,
tells you everything you ever wanted to know about any aspect of PC
performance, for uber-geeks only )

13) Program Manager = progman.exe (Legacy Windows 3.x desktop shell).

14) Remote Access phone book = rasphone.exe (documentation is virtually
non-existant).

Windows Registry).

16) Network shared folder wizard = shrpubw.exe (creates shared folders on

18) Volume Contro = sndvol32.exe (I've included this for those people that
lose it from the System Notification area).

19) System Configuration Editor = sysedit.exe (modify System.ini & Win.ini
just like in Win98! ).

20) Syskey = syskey.exe (Secures XP Account database - use with care, it's
virtually undocumented but it appears to encrypt all passwords, I'm not sure
of the full implications).

21) Microsoft Telnet Client = telnet.exe

22) Driver Verifier Manager = verifier.exe (seems to be a utility for
monitoring the actions of drivers, might be useful for people having driver
problems. Undocumented).

23) Windows for Workgroups Chat = winchat.exe (appears to be an old NT
utility to allow chat sessions over a LAN, help files available).
