I miss the "New" and "Old" listings

bubbabobbobbob

I always enabled the ability to list a item as New or Old. Wherever this was allowed it gave me the ability to know if a program tried to sneak in an install . This worked in the "Uninstall Programs" and all through "the Registry Manager".

Please bring it back :

Hello "BubbaBobBobBob"

The developper allready gave you an answer to your request in "Beta testing".

Please put the AGE feature back. It allows me to see if a item has been newly installed or a program I did not want installed.

This feature will make a return in PowerTools 2011, it had to be cut from the 2010 version to avoid any further delays with the product.

Best regards

As said, it will be the number one priority for the PowerTools 2011.

Ouch!.. 2011?.. Owell..

Will that include the return of Comments? Comments are as important to me as the Age (I need/like both). I use Comments to note when a third party product is installed as part of a package. In that way, I know what also to uninstall if I every uninstall the main product.

I've been a jv16PT user since Win98SE days and I'm a VIP Platinum user so I'll be waiting for v2011, but in the meanwhile, I've reverted back to v1.9.1.606. I can't live without Age and Comment.

I'll add myself to this list Jouni.

Comments and age are absolutely necessary to those of us who have been long time users of JV16 PT :)

Yes, also the comment writing feature will make its return.

Okay, thanx for the comeback. Alongwith others, I'll be waiting!

Another vote here for the Age / Comment feature!

Add my vote too ... I don't think I ever made use of Comments, but the Age thing was particularly useful because (on my installation, anyway) "new" items were automatically popped up to the top of the displayed list so they were pretty obvious.

Yep, that's the way the Age thing works. New items rise to the top. I find Comments very useful for software names that don't really tell you what program the software is connected to. Each time I do a new install, first thing I did was check for 'New', then add comments if the name didn't fit the product. Back to v2009 for me.
