(Win8.1 64-bit)
If you need a 32-bit version, please let me know.


I am a hobby programmer, so I cannot take any responsibility for damage caused by the use of this program (although I don't think it can do any damage). Tested on Win8.1 RTM (final version). I didn't test it on the Win8.1 Preview, but it might work.

I would love to hear your suggestions on how to improve my utility! Please spread the word!
