Zeallsoft Screensaver for Windows

User Reviews

• Not a screensaver maker

  douglaswilliamsmith5/6/2010

  Pros

  Will not break your computer

  Cons

  Girloftheseas is correct - this program does not make screensavers. If I just wanted to see pictures change I'd print them out and flip them past my face every 4 seconds.

  Summary

  Wish cnet didn't force me to choose one star.

• Doesn't work except as demo

  girloftheseas2/21/2009

  Pros

  Creates a demo.

  Cons

  Like abluescarab wrote in his/her review, this doesn't write the screensaver. It's just like a sandbox for a temporary slide show, but when it comes to saving it and using it as your screensaver, it doesn't do that. You can't save your screensaver.

  Summary

  Don't waste your time with this unless you just like to look at temporary slide shows that you can't save. If this worked, it would create a ".scr" file, but it doesn't.

• Love it! Great free program.

  SaraMarie842/16/2009

  Pros

  It does exactly what it promises to do. Very simple to use. I had my screen saver up and running about 2 minutes after I first downloaded it.

  Cons

  My only complaint is so small it doesn't even really matter. Unless there is a way and I haven't figured it out yet, you cannot turn the transitions off or even change them. It's perminantly set on random.

  Summary

  If you want to create a screensaver with personal photos and music and you want something quick, easy, and free, I would highly recommend this program.

• It's Great, But Only One Screensaver at a Time

  abluescarab9/14/2008

  Pros

  - Can create wonderful screensavers with photos and music - Can randomize music/photos or keep them in order - Many great transitions

  Cons

  - you can only have one screensaver made at a time

  Summary

  This program can make great screensavers, but you can only have one screensaver at a time. When you click the OK button, it will not create an executable as it probably should have been made to do. Instead, it will add the screensaver to the screensaver tab in desktop Properties, meaning that if you create another screensaver, it will overwrite the previous one. It will not save the screensaver in any way. And it would not help to look for the screensaver data in program files, because the only thing there is the data that makes the application run. All in all, it can make wonderful screensavers, but there's no way to save them or keep them.

• GREAT

  UriahsWizard6/25/2007

  Pros

  Easy to set up and even easier to use. An ideal program/feature for the average PC user who just wants to create something different without all the jargon and complicated operations.

  Cons

  You can't save your newly created screensavers, but then again it does exactly what it says it will.

• difficult to use and not worth it

  frodoyugi286/28/2006

  Pros

  when it works, it's good

  Cons

  you can't change any of the settings without going through the entire setup process again. Even then, program has tendency to freeze (supposed to unlock w/ mouse click), and I didn't like that you couldn't see what pics you had added (no previews) - also it kept erasing my settings and going back to its defaults.

• There have problem when exit the program

  LemonPie5/3/2006

  Pros

  Easy to use. It will guide you step by step to finish the procedure but you need to start over from first step when you make change.

  Cons

  but there is no setting about the exit of the running screensaver. Mouse movement can't exit ! press Esc can't exit ! press Start Menu can't exit ! need to try all key then I know press mouse button key to exit.
