Windows Power Utilities

Overview

Seven standalone Windows desktop utilities from iTechVista, each a small single-purpose Python tray or window app, packaged together but fully independent. FolderPortal is a radial pop-up menu for opening pinned folders with a mouse chord. CleanSlate purges the Windows standby memory list to cut in-game stutter. WindowGhost sets any window's transparency with Alt and the scroll wheel. FocusDimmer darkens everything except the active window. AudioRouter Lite sends individual apps to chosen audio outputs. QuickDNS Switcher flips your network adapter between Google, Cloudflare and Quad9 DNS from the tray. KeySound plays synthesised mechanical keyboard sounds as you type. Every source file byte-compiles cleanly on CPython 3.14. Each tool ships its own requirements.txt, PyInstaller spec and icons; no executables are bundled. Windows 10 and 11 only; CleanSlate and QuickDNS need administrator rights.
