Review

DeskPro Studio is Cintel's award-winning Windows shell replacement, providing faster performance than the standard Windows shell, and a host of Cintel applications. If you're tired of that old, slow Windows User Interface then replace or supplement it with Cintel DeskPro, a fast and easy to use, 32-bit Windows Command Shell, which provides Application management, Shut Down, Run, File Management etc. and is very easily customised to suit your individual needs, with customisable icons for your favorite applications, folders, files or web sites.Using DeskPro as your windows shell frees-up previously-occupied RAM, enabling games and other applications to run up to 20% faster, with higher frame-rates and smoother animation. Another feature unique to DeskPro is the support for Cintel's 'Lite' version applications. Lite versions are fully functional, and have no features removed from the full version, however, they are distributed in a smaller package, just their executable and the support files they require. You do not need to download the large runtime libraries with every Cintel Lite application because they are automatically installed by the DeskPro installation program.Updating DeskPro is easy; using the bundled configuration utility 'DPConfig', patching via the internet is simple. In DPConfig, click 'check for updates', the application connects to the internet and downloads the latest patch if required, in a Cintel STUF Package, which is extracted by DPConfig. The next step is to click 'Patch DeskPro to latest version' which extracts all the files required, then relaunches the updated version of DeskPro, with no reboot required. Using DeskPro as your shell is also easy. Using DPConfig just one click is required to switch between DeskPro and the default Windows' shell. The next time you restart, the shell you chose is launched.DeskPro is extremely portable. Its core support programs will follow it, wherever the main executable is placed, allowing maximum flexibility without sacrificing the stability of your Windows shell. DeskPro Studio includes many free Cintel applications, such as Cintel AutoCrypt (encryption), Cintel ProAccounts, Cintel STUF Packager, Cintel Omega (web-browser), Cintel NetSearch (offline search engine), Cintel iChat, and the newly revamped Cintel ASL (including editor).*Shell replacement is currently unavailable on Windows NT4/2000. This issue will be addressed in the upcoming release.
