I suggested the author to review my company product SpyStudio that has a free version and is being used by Microsoft MVPs and VMware to troubleshoot Windows issues. If you need a trustworthy source, here is a video from Peter Björk ( http://blogs.vmware.com/thinapp/author/peter_bjork ) showing how to troubleshoot a ThinApp package: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sLxeoB7Bho

Hmmm "the author" works at Microsoft, I'm not sure if you are aware of this
Does anyone know of (or have) a similar list for OSX?

My Ultimate Developer and Power Users Tool List for OS X (2013 Edition)
> The idea for this list was shamelessly ripped off from Windows developer Scott Hanselman whose list has long been an enjoyable read when he updates it.
my 2 cents: - TreeSize ( and/or SequoiaView ) -- see where the big files/directories are on your harddrives - Piriform CrapCleaner -- deletes unwanted/unneeded files after booting; configure all of it, then add folders and log files manually (find good candidates with Treesize ;) I like all Piriform tools, they're small, quick and slick. I wish they made more things. - any SysInternals stuff you have a use for (Autor…
I'd swap out Treesize for Windirstat (Free-er) and FreeFileSync for PathSync (which I really need to fork one day)

I couldn't even read this part without laughing, all I hear is: "I'm too lazy to spend a few hours learning the free, extremely powerful tools available to me, so I'll use this weaker substitute instead. And it's only 20 bucks!" I overcame my eye rolling, an…

Cmder[ http://bliker.github.io/cmder/ ] from that list changed how i view a windows commandline. My best windows tool discovery in 2013.
I don't know why people have such a blind spot in this regard, but Visual Studio's non-support for word-wrapping comments is obviously shameful. It's utterly ridiculous that you have to press Return while writing comments, and then more ridiculous yet that you have to go back and re-wrap them by hand when they change! - and the end result of course is that people usually don't bother, with the wrapping becoming stead…
