Had a computer on my desk, at home, since 1980. ( Apple II ) Open architecture that allowed all kinds of tweaks & tricks to get the job done the way I wanted to, instead of what Microsoft thought I wanted to do.
- Learned Basic & had a ball with it. Wrote my own programs for home & business.
Win Ownership returns much of that openness to a Windows PC. Now I can easily get to all those locked up folders & files that held 'secrets' whether I wanted them - or not.
It let me clean up more than 10 gigs of junk files that were sealed 'for my protection' on a new 'puter.
Cons
NOT for newbies, or anyone who is ok with the way it comes from the factory.
You need to know the internals and their functions or you can really screw things up !
Summary
