Pro: -A lot of customization, down to the sizes of the icons and other aspects to get the desktop you want.
-No installation, all ran out of a file, easy to get started and no hassle uninstall.
Con: -[This is the big one for me]Works off of Shortcuts. Unlike Fences that actually hold the documents, this merely makes shortcuts on your desktop. which is kinda useless in my opinion (anyone with windows 8 or 10 have a better way of handling shortcuts.)
-with the "lot of customization" comes with a clutter of menus.
Other Info: The company offers 2 versions as of writing this: Toolbox & Toolbox III Beta. I tested both and the Toolbox III Beta has just a bit more control then the orignal without it being much different. anyone who wants this I would think would go with Toolbox III Beta right now.
Final verdict: A decent light program thats packed with features. Its good to give it a test and throw away the files if you don't want it. Since I got Windows 10 I feel like it would be wasted space comparatively. Other then that, I would say try it out for yourself. I liked it for what its worth.
