Endless Slideshow Screensaver for Windows

User Reviews

• Worked well for 3 months then crashed

  raywigton10/18/2015

  Pros

  Allows me to use my own high quality photos as screen savers. My screen saver can promote my own personal agenda when I'm away from my desk if anybody else sees it. It is easy to pick and choose what folders it uses pictures from. This program also downloads some photos from safe sites like NASA etc that can be used as screen savers. The pictures were top quality. There is absolutely no malware installed in this program. When it was working, I really liked it and I would use it again if I knew the bugs were fixed.

  Cons

  One day the program crashed and no changes had been made to the computer to cause a conflict. I removed and then re-installed the program but a week later it crashed again. I attempted to send the bug report to the maker but that also failed. After uninstalling it, the popup asked for feedback as to why I removed the program but the only thing mandatory on the page was my personal information. After it downloads a few pictures from on line, it messages that you have to upgrade to the paid version to get more photo downloads. That is stupid when I can download the same pictures on my hard drive without using the program and then use them just like I do my own pictures.

  Summary

  There is always a cost to doing business and nothing works for free. Most applications can cover cost on the side with advertisements just like CNET does or they allow fake download banners on their site just like CNET does or they allow downloaded spyware with the application like so many other programs have done. With a few thousand downloads/users, money is probably in short supply and customer support is just not possible. I suppose the next step is to run advertisements in the middle of the screen saver photos, but that wouldn't work because the screen saver is only on because we got called away from our desk and nobody is watching. Unfortunately, I would never pay for something like this when the basic program doesn't work well for me and I don't have time to figure out what the bug in it is. I think that the idea of personal pictures on a screen saver is great and maybe the next step should be photo presentations to accompany my lectures and not just a screen saver that lacks a commercial value.

• Very poor support for pro registered users

  Huffnpuf7/24/2012

  Pros

  The program works fine for jpg files only.

  Cons

  The program does not read raw files. The developer has been promising to fix this issue for almost a year and still no fix. The lack of updates and support makes me feel like I wasted my money upgrading to the pro version.

• Developed a Glitch!

  JPittam7/3/2012

  Pros

  Worked wonderfully for months.

  Cons

  Stopped performing flawlessly (had to rig the settings by eliminating the stop on mouse move). Wrote email to ask for help. Days later, still no response. I know it is free, but if they give an email address for help, you'd expect them to answer. Certainly won't be upgrading to the Pro version!

  Summary

  Could be a fluke with me, but it has become unreliable. Will be looking for a replacement.

• Uninstaller contains malware, 4 STAR Alert

  mitchiner4/24/2011

  Pros

  There are no pros!

  Cons

  1.Incompatibility with multiple monitors installations; 2.Unable to successfully and completely uninstall this software. It still reappears in drop down listing of screensavers; 3.Built-In uninstaller contains a 4-STAR malware.

  Summary

  User BEWARE! If it doesn't work in your installation, the vendor has made it nearly impossible to remove from the system. It is embedded in over 100 locations throughout the operating system, including the registry!

• Exactly what I was searching for...

  SalviaWillow2/8/2009

  Pros

  -just add the root folder and that's it, every folder under the root folder is scanned too - cool slideshow effects -works as Screensaver AND Slideshow -every picture can be used for Desktop Wallpaper

  Cons

  maybe for some of you: -you can choose just one chategory for downloading new pictures...otherwise you have to chose "all categories"

  Summary

  It was a screensaver & slideshow exactly like I was searching for. It's FREE. Pictures fitting perfectly to full screen. 5 stars!
