As mentioned above, AlomWare Toolbox is a portable app, so no setup or installation is needed. Once downloaded from AlomWare.com, unzip the downloaded file so the folder named "AlomWare Toolbox" is saved somewhere on your PC. (Learn how by watching the above video, or use a free tool like PeaZip to do it). As shown in the video, simply double-click the "Toolbox.exe" file inside the unzipped "AlomWare Toolbox" folder to run the app. You'll need to accept the End-User License Agreement before you can use it, and then AlomWare Toolbox will set itself to auto-run whenever you start your PC or log in. (Note: You can disable auto-run in the app's settings).
Why do I get a warning when trying to run AlomWare Toolbox?
If you get a warning message about "Windows protected your PC" or an "unknown publisher" when running AlomWare Toolbox, it just means Windows® can't verify the publisher (AlomWare) with Microsoft at this time. Despite this warning, your PC is never at risk (see the above question about malware) as this is just a standard warning from Windows®. To perform your own manual publisher verification, compare the SHA-256 hash of the unzipped "Toolbox.exe" file (not the zip file) under the "Download" button on our Home page with any online SHA-256 verification service. If it matches, then your download is safe and you can select "Run anyway" (or "Run") to skip such warnings in future.
Does AlomWare Toolbox respect my privacy?
Yes! Everything you do with AlomWare Toolbox is never seen, known, or accessible to us at any time; and nothing in the app secretly sends your data to us. You don't even need an internet connection to run it, but if you're not convinced, then learn how to block AlomWare Toolbox with a firewall. Just remember that doing this will prevent you using the email or website automated actions features of the app.
All your data and app settings are stored offline in a local folder named "Toolbox Data" where AlomWare Toolbox is run. There is a setting to change the data folder to another location if you wish. We don't save by default to "the cloud" for two reasons: (a) your data is none of our business, and (b) being offline means your data isn't sitting on an online server somewhere that hackers can attack.
Is my data encrypted for privacy?
By default, you data is not encrypted, to (a) save you having to enter a password every time the app starts, and (b) keep your important data accessible if you forget your password - we don't want you to accidentally lock yourself out! But you can click the "user" icon at the top-right of AlomWare Toolbox's window to set a password for that session (launch). This password is not saved or sent anywhere, and is lost when the app quits or when you specifically choose to stop using it. When set, your notes and automated action steps can be encrypted by wrapping sensitive text in this format: {?text to be hidden}. To understand better, click the images below or watch the video.
