CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET staff on April 20, 2009
Windows-based computers come with an almost dizzying number of options, from Internet Explorer to Notepad and everything in between. Trying to manage all these functions may be a lot easier for users with Fresh UI.
This free download gives users an unprecedented look and incredible control over their system. The Fresh UI display is that of an expandable file tree, giving a general look at all programs that can be tinkered with. This overview is what really makes this program special. By erasing the countless minutes that could be spent opening each individual program and learning how to make alterations in the program, Fresh UI saves users hours of time over the life of their computer.
For example, we tested Fresh UI and looked at our Notepad options. Where we would normally have to open the program and then search through the menus to find various options, Fresh UI laid all the variables out in a simple display and allowed us a quick way to automatically wrap text, alter the fonts, and more. From there we could go to Outlook Express, Windows Media Player, and other programs with a few simple clicks.
While Fresh UI offers a unique program, it is also bogged down by its poor Help file, and novice users might have more questions than it can answer. However, more experienced users will find this download to be a helpful tool for customizing Windows.

Version: Fresh UI 8.33
Pros: Gives access to some obscure and/or hard to reach admin controls.
Cons: Misrepresented -- this is not a "tweak" tool. It is more of a control panel on steroids type tool.
Summary: Great tool for casual users -- no offense intended. There is no real need for this tool for advanced users and enthusiasts.

Version: Fresh UI 8.33
"Like the app, don't like their registration process"
Pros: They claim it's free, and it is.....I guess. In order to avoid having to wait an inordinate amount of time for it to open past the free trial period, you must register it. In order to register it you must provide anything but a free email address.
Cons: They won't accept emaill addresses like AOL, Yahoo, Juno, Hotmail, etc., etc., etc. So an individual is reduced to waiting for 300 seconds for the app to load because they don't have a high-powered email address to register their application.
Summary: Don't get me wrong, I love the application, hence the 4 stars, I use it on all my computers, I love the tweaks I can do with Fresh UI.
But it could've been 5 stars if not for their lunatic registration requirement, not everyone has a ... read more >> - See all 2 user reviews Write review
