Terms of use

Please read these terms before you use SimpleTool. By pressing “I accept” you agree to them. If you do not agree, press “Exit” and do not use SimpleTool.

1. What SimpleTool is

   SimpleTool is a free program for Windows 10 and 11 made by blagotech (blagotech.uk). It changes Windows settings: registry values, services, scheduled tasks and the context menu, and it can limit how much memory other programs use. This is a beta version: it is still being tested and may contain errors.

2. You use it at your own risk

   SimpleTool is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty that it is fit for a particular purpose, works without errors or suits your computer. You choose which changes to make, and you are responsible for that choice and its consequences.

3. Before you change anything

   Back up your important files and create a Windows restore point: the System snapshots page has a button for it. Read the description of every tweak before you apply it. Use SimpleTool only on a computer that you own or are allowed to change. On a work or school computer, ask your administrator first.

4. What can go wrong

   Changing system settings can make Windows, drivers or other programs behave differently or stop working, turn off features you rely on, or leave you needing to restore settings or reinstall Windows. Revert and snapshots try to put the original values back but cannot guarantee it in every case, for example after a Windows update or when another program has changed the same settings. A program whose memory is limited can slow down.

5. Liability

   To the fullest extent permitted by law, blagotech is not liable for any loss or damage that arises from using SimpleTool or being unable to use it, including loss of data, damage to Windows or other software, time your computer cannot be used, lost income and the cost of repair, data recovery or reinstalling Windows.

6. Your statutory rights

   Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or any other liability that the law does not allow to be excluded or limited. If you use SimpleTool as a consumer, these terms do not affect your statutory rights.

7. Your data

   SimpleTool does not collect personal data and sends nothing over the internet. Its settings, backups and snapshots stay on your computer in %LOCALAPPDATA%\SimpleTool; delete that folder to remove them.

8. Licence and trademarks

   The source code of SimpleTool is released under the MIT License, and nothing in these terms limits the rights that licence gives you. The blagotech name, the b!t mark and the logo are not covered by the MIT License.

9. Changes to these terms

   Later versions of SimpleTool may come with new terms. If the terms change, SimpleTool shows them again and asks you to accept them.

10. Law

    These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. If you are a consumer living in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may also bring proceedings in your local courts. If a translation of these terms differs from the English version, the English version applies.
