New Windows apps and games
Photo Transfer App - Photos & Videos
Photo Transfer App - Photos & Videos enables you to transfer media from your mobile devices to your Windows devices, manage media on these devices, and to push media from Windows devices to the mobile devices.
The app requires the companion application Photo Transfer App on the mobile device. It works with Android and iOS devices, and can transfer photos over Wi-Fi and cable.
The free version has several limitations, including the number of photos that can be transferred in one operation.
WebBrowserBookmarksView is a new application by Nirsoft, developer of hundreds of useful tools. The new desktop program displays bookmarks and favorites from supported browsers in its interface. It supports installed browsers and portable applications on local and remote devices.
Bookmarks are displayed in a table in the interface with their name, folder target, location and other information. A click on a column header sorts the data accordingly.
Bookmarks can be copied or exported, e.g. as an HTML file on the local system.
