Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! There is no malware or spyware in it, and doesn't send data from your PC over the internet to us or anyone else at all. We invite you to block it with a firewall if you're not convinced. Unlike other software companies, we don't bundle third-party sponsored tools with AlomWare Toolbox. You literally get just a single portable executable of the app, and that's it! No installation needed, no system mess, and no user account needing creation to use it. The way all respectable software should be!

After downloading the zip file, "unzip" it for use (video) and double-click the "Toolbox.exe" file to run it. If Windows blocks the app or shows a false positive warning (because you can use the app to control your PC), then you may need to allow the app to run and possibly also whitelist its exe in your anti-virus software as an exclusion. Doing these does not mean AlomWare Toolbox is unsafe; it just means that Windows doesn't recognize the app and is therefore taking some paranoid precautions for you.

Need more reassurance? We refer you to our satisfied customer reviews on Trustpilot.com, and see also VirusTotal's report and Google's "Safe Browsing" status about us. Everything we do is totally ethical and above-board!

Unlike other apps, we don't restrict you to Windows 10 or 11. AlomWare Toolbox runs on Windows 7 or later (64-bit only), and with or without admin rights. Running it as admin rights gives it far better functionality and control of your PC, though. There is no setup or installation needed due to being portable: just unzip the download somewhere and run the "Toolbox.exe" file for immediate use.

Due to the app being a standard Win32 executable, it can't support dark mode natively like Windows Store apps; but it does have a setting to dim its windows to reduce glare as a compromise (image). You can also change the color scheme to whatever you wish, or even have no color scheme at all (so that all its windows and prompts will use your current PC scheme).

English is the only supported language, as the app uses a massive amount of in-app text and we do not have the money or resources to translate the app into different languages. Additionally, much of the text is built on-the-fly during runtime, so direct translations are not always possible anyway.

For sight-challenged users, accessibility is something we have on the roadmap, and we're already working to give better functionality for such users whenever we can. We thank you for your patience.

AlomWare Toolbox always has a FREE casual mode which is fully functional for occasional daily use for everyone, which is enabled when you enter a simple usage code each day. Yes, it's a nag, but free doesn't pay the bills and we have no ads or sponsors to financially support us. We regret that we are unable to provide technical support for free users.

If you don't want the nag, then why not support us with one of our two affordable payment options? These are for private home users and removes the daily usage code requirement. Your payment might even be tax-deductible for your usage situation, and we recommend you obtain financial advice to find out. Thanks for your generosity!

For all non-home use, such as for your office or company, please contact us for a quote.

AlomWare Toolbox's automation functions are intended for local PC activity that simulates a person doing physical actions, such as keyboard typing and mouse actions; and to work with files and folders and manipulate windows.

It is not a comprehensive automation system that can be used to delve into online databases and extract specific data for download or modification, and neither can it be used control hardware devices or access other systems remotely (unless keystrokes can simulate it). For these situations you will need to seek an alternative product.

Here are screenshots of the automation steps that AlomWare Toolbox supports for actions:

Computer  -  Files  -  Folders  -  Keyboard  -  Macros  -  Mouse  -  Text  -  Waiting  -  Windows

We have a partial Online Manual for you to browse, but please note that the "Automation" topic isn't fully done at this time. However, each automation step has a detailed help box, so please read the box to understand how the steps work. Please also read the entire online manual; particularly the "Support" topic for basic troubleshooting.

AlomWare Toolbox is a very powerful and feature-rich product, and if you only spend a few minutes with it then you're really going to miss out on all it can offer. It actually does far more than you might assume, so please take some actual time to browse what all the automation steps can do. We know you'll be pleasantly surprised!
