Camera, clean-drive and presentation mode

There is a handy camera utility that lets you take a picture or a video. I've used it a few times to capture a receipt with my webcam so I can submit it for reimbursement or save it for tax purposes.

A new feature called Presentation Mode, turns off notifications and other distractions if you're doing a presentation. Hide Desktop is another handy tool for presenters or anyone sharing your screen because it hides all the icons on your desktop that you might not want to reveal to your viewers.

The Clean Drive feature quickly helps you eliminate unwanted temporary files.

The Mac version also has a tool to find duplicate files -- an essential utility for anyone trying to free up disk space, especially if you have multiple copies of music and other large media files, even when they have different file names. Mac also has airplane mode to turn off radios, a GIF creator and editor, a tool to free up memory and a resize image tool.

Handy even though many functions available elsewhere

Of course, many of these functions are available elsewhere, sometimes through utilities that come with OS X or Windows. But it's handy to have them all in one place and Parallels Toolbox also gives you the ability to assign function keys to most tools or drag them to your taskbar for easy access. The software, which I have set to run automatically when I start the system, had a quick explanation for each feature that shows up when you hover over it.

Two slight complaints

No System Images Available

My only complaints about the software are that the audio recorder only allows you to save WAV files and not the more compact and compressed MP3 files and that you need a separate license for each computer. I would prefer the ability to run it on both my laptop and desktop for the same license fee, albeit not at the same time. If you replace your PC, there is a way to uninstall it on one machine and re-install on another without purchasing a new license. And, when it comes to my complaint about the lack of MP3 audio, I just learned that the program has a 'suggest a feature' box under its gear icon and, says a company spokeperson, will be updating with new features regularly.
