ABOUT

Winaero Tweaker is a freeware app created by myself, Sergey Tkachenko. It is an
all-in-one application that comes with dozens of options for fine-grained tuning
of various Windows settings and features.

It also includes most options which were available in free standalone apps at
Winaero.com and extends them as much as possible.

This web site is a new home for the app. It is ads-free, scripts-free, and web
tracking-free.

Winaero Tweaker comes with plenty of features and tweaks. To name a few of them:

     with Paint 3D, etc.
