"Lets you see the status of your computer"
Version: Fresh UI 8.81
Pros
Changes are easy to make
Cons
Downloads from Fresh Devices home page are very annoying.
-
"Dangerous to use."
Version: Fresh UI 8.74
Pros
Many features, though badly implemented. The application claims to shut off options not related to the OS that your PC operates under, but in fact does not such thing.
Cons
With some of the options and you may find yourself in deep trouble. I wanted to eliminate the Win 7 warning, about an unknown applicatin I chose Security, Applications to Allow. I found I could only use one app. Not even FreshUI would open to undo
Summary
FreshUI is carelessly implemented and its support is abysmal. All one gets is a proforma response with some FAQs, none related to one's urgent appeal for help. I've since removed it and all FreshDevice products from my PC. (I'm not going to bore you with how I got back control of my computer, but it took me 4 1/2 hours.

"Performs as advertised"
Version: Fresh UI 8.66
Pros
Functions correctly and is straight forward.
Cons
none found yet.
Summary
The individual who said that the registration codes were not sent should check their spam folder. They were sent to me in a very short time.

"They don't send Free Registration Codes as "advertized""

Pros
Good software
Cons
They don't send Free Registration Codes as "advertized"
Summary
Getting uninstalled as we speak ...

"Lots of features"
Version: Fresh UI 8.64
Pros
I downloaded it for an old Windows 98 computer. Most programs don't work on Windows 98. I discovered it could do things for an old Windows XP laptop that the installed programs couldn't do.
Cons
None that I know of.

"Caused PERMANENT loss of WinXP Explorer to show Details"
Version: Fresh UI 8.61
Pros
I liked what it promised.
Cons
Immediately after installing, WinXP Pro Explorer would no longer show Details as default - only Icons view. None of my desktop shortcuts to access folders would work. Sent 3 messages requesting help, received no responses -- just more ads.
Summary
A piece of junk. I don't know why anyone would use this program. The damage to my Windows Explorer can NOT be fixed without reinstalling Windows and losing days of work while I reinstall all the programs on my machine! "Support" via the developer's web site or email is non-existent. After weeks of waiting for a response to 3 requests for help, I've received no response. After tinkering with the Registry based on recommendations from Microsoft support site, I was able to recover the ability to show Details, but have to continually change the View. It will NOT permit me to save that status permanently for any folder. Badly flawed program with no support. Considering their unwillingness to respond to requests for help, I strongly recommend that you avoid anything from this company.

"usefull tool but lacks clarity and usage may get tough"
Version: Fresh UI 8.56
Pros
a lot of features, usefull tools for experienced users.
Cons
a little hard to figure out for new users, lack of simplyfied insructions. could be improved to be more user friendly and god! the spanish translation is awful. I could give you guys a hand with that.
Summary
It's a very good tool for experienced users but too tough and with too many choices and decicions for new users. it could be simplyfied. and be careful with translations to other languages because users could get even more confused.

"It wasn't what I expected."
Version: Fresh UI 8.54
Pros
Shows many settings.
Cons
- charges unnecessarily the interface with settings that don't belong to your version of Windows.
- for non-english speakers the traduction is catastrophic!
- unappealing skinSummary
I uninstalled it just a few minutes after the installation. I didn't play with it much and I didn't even try to change a setting through its interface. So I have to admit I cannot make a fair comment.
