Latest v2.5 update now available, see the first post. It took two days for my Kobo device battery to get flat enough, before I could resume troubleshooting. During that process I discovered some other issues and fixed them too, So see this update as a BUGFIX Update. [Wednesday 5th November 2025] & [Saturday 8th November 2025] (v2.5) As always with this project, testing is a challenge, so only minimal testing has occurred so far. That means it is recommended you play it safe and do your own backups, until sure my program is reliable ... behaves as it should.

REMOVED the Kobo Cover Fixer v2-4.zip update download, due to a serious bug. It will be replaced soon as, but right now I am still testing, which isn't easy in my circumstances, which is no doubt how the issue slipped through. Basically the Restore feature worked in the wrong direction copy wise, and probably the Clone feature did too. I am presuming they originally worked in the right directions or I would have noticed before now. So likely this is the result of a recent new feature I added, and which I might have been interrupted in when implementing. Due to the flaky nature of the USB connection to my Kobo device, which may be a device hardware issue or just driver related, testing and troubleshooting for me, are a challenge. In essence, I only get a small window of time to operate in. Basically my device needs to be flat, and I get roughly an hour before it is charged after connecting to my PC. Once the device battery is charged, the Kobo device gets stuck in a connect/disconnect loop, so almost impossible to work with. You might think an hour would be sufficient time, and it is if all goes to plan. However it doesn't leave much leeway for testing latest changes or troubleshooting. This is chiefly because I have a lot of ebooks on my Kobo device ... just shy of a thousand, of which somewhat less than a hundred are side-loaded ebooks. It takes a good while checking the images for all those ebooks, especially when doing visual comparison, as happens when a mismatch between the clone folder on my PC and the images folder on the Kobo device. Anyway, BIG APOLOGIES to the six downloaders of v2.4, who may have been or might be, impacted by the wrong direction copy issue ... hopefully their cover sources remain. I discovered this issue a couple of hours ago and are already working on a fix, perhaps already fixed. Luckily right now, I am just about to start reading a physical trade paperback, so my Kobo device won't be needed for reading for a couple of days or so. In an effort to deal with this more quickly, I have temporarily set my Kobo device to never go to sleep, so the battery can get flatter quicker, and I can do some final testing, hopefully in a few hours or tomorrow. P.S. I'd been following my latest instructions to ensure I didn't miss anything in regard to them, so the good news is they passed up to where I needed to troubleshoot the copy issue, so up until just before I needed to run the Clone feature ... after restoring the cover images in my Clone folder from my Images Backup folder ... so glad I had that. NOTE TO SELF - I should suggest using the BACKUP IMAGES option before running the 'Clone' feature ... certainly on first use. Having that backup has saved my bacon a few times. So I should amend those newly created instructions.

And we welcome back GUI GURU jaberwacky to the GUI front. Oct 27 2025 - Guiscape -- A new GUI builder project! by jaberwacky Added to the first post. Good to see him at it again.

Thanks for sharing, and good to see you getting back into it again. Added this to the AutoIt GUI Creators (Designers) sticky.

Please note folk, that I aren't actively looking for new programs to add here, so only add them when I come across them in passing. So if you've created such a program or see one in your travels, please post about it here, so I can investigate and add.

Thanks for sharing your project, looks impressive. I've added it to the sticky topic - AutoIt GUI Creators (Designers)

First new one for a good long while, added to the first post. July 28, 2025 - User Interface Builder - GUI Designer by 0xC0FFEE P.S. Seems quite impressive.

Latest v2.4 update now available, see the first post. This involves several changes and improvements since my last (v1.9) update upload. I've held off while I've done more testing, and kept adding and changing things. That said, testing has been minimal with some elements, so no guarantees. A few new screenshots are included in applicable spoiler sections. Of particular interest for users, is an additional fairly comprehensive 'Instructions.txt' file, which should be very helpful and informative. [Tuesday 2nd September 2025] (v2.0) [Wednesday 8th October 2025] (v2.1) [Monday 27th October 2025] (v2.2) [Tuesday 28th October 2025] (v2.3) [Wednesday 29th October 2025] (v2.4)

Because that can make a Pres out of U and Me ... whatever a Pres is ... maybe some kind of Trump thing. Not only that, but the truth can be stretched so much it becomes unrecognizable ... that's when Oranges can be like Apples and Bananas like Sausages ... so Gastronomy suffers and we all end up with a belly ache. I don't know about you, but I prefer to not have sausages in my Fruit Salad ... or Bananas and Mash.

Updated the first post with an updated version (v1.1), including a new screenshot. Three buttons added, and when the program is minimized, it minimizes to the system tray and has a right-click menu there.

Just a little program I whipped up today. If like me, you connect to the web via LAN, but don't always like your PC to be connected all the time, especially at boot up, then you might find my script handy. Basically I use it to turn my Ethernet connection off. A fairly simple affair, and the state persists after shutdown. BIG THANKS to jguinch for the Network configuration UDF. My script uses and requires the Network.au3 include file from the first post of that topic. My script runs with Admin Rights, as per the first line of the script. Show Adapters.au3 (40 previous downloads) NOTE - On my system, some adapters have a CRLF in the middle of the returned entry. My script changes that, within program, to a backward slash (\) for ease of use etc. As can be noted in the screenshot, the second portion, after the backslash, is the actual adapter name used for ENABLE and DISABLE and getting INFO. To work with the same adapter by default, you can SAVE a selected entry as the one, which can appear selected at startup after first being checked. Enjoy!

Thanks for that. Has come in handy. In fact I used it in the following.

Latest v1.9 update now available, see the first post. This involves several changes and improvements since my last (v1.4) update upload. I've held off until I've done a reasonable amount of testing, especially with the new CLONE approach. [Tuesday 6th May 2025] (v1.5) [Monday 21st July 2025] (v1.6) [Wednesday 23rd July 2025] (v1.7) [Friday 15th August 2025] (v1.8) [Tuesday 26th August 2025] (v1.9)

@thedemons Nice seeming project, that I have just discovered ... seems (seemed) quite promising. So for what it is worth, and although it now seems abandoned, I have added it to the following, in the first post. AutoIt GUI Creators (Designers) Thanks for sharing.

One we overlooked, and have just discovered, has been added to the first post. July 6, 2020 - ImGui in AutoIt - Advanced UI by thedemons P.S. A very interesting project, that appeared to have much potential, but sadly the author seems to have disappeared not long after providing.
