winutils

Legacy Windows file utilities originally distributed around 1996-1997 through shareware/file upload sites. I do not have a complete record of where each version was posted.

Each utility was designed to mimic its DOS counterpart (without the win prefix) while leveraging then-new Windows 95 APIs to provide visual feedback, such as progress dialogs.

Utilities included

  • wincopy
  • windel
  • winmove
  • winren

The codebase uses C/C++ era Visual C++ project formats (.dsp, .dsw, .mdp, .mak) plus Windows resources (.rc, .ico), reflecting its original period.

Help and usage

Help assets are present in the help/ folder, including classic WinHelp files such as:

  • WINUTIL.HLP
  • Winutils.hlp
  • Winutils.cnt
  • winutils.HPJ
  • related bitmap/resource files used by the original help project
