    Send To Toys


    Does anyone know what happened to the Send To Toys website and/or owner, https://gabrieleponti.com/ ? It seems the website has been down for at least a couple of years.

    The last version of send to toys on gabrieleponti.com is v2.72, found from the internet archive, but major geeks has v2.73. Is the new version trustworthy?

    Download Send To Toys - MajorGeeks

    Thanks!

    According to the date on the download from MajorGeeks it's only 8 months old so maybe still in development?

    For interest:
    SendTo Menu Editor v1.3

    And note that using
    shell:SendTo
    directly or as a shortcut opens the Sendto folder.

    It seems like the new version of Send To Toys was uploaded after the publisher site went down. The last entry from the internet archive showed v2.72 over a year ago and the website disappeared abruptly. I wonder what happened? Shame, since Send To Toys is a nice program. I almost always download software from original sources, but since the publisher site doesn't work, I wanted confirmation that the software was ok. Thank you!

    As for my experience, MajorGeeks does a good job of checking what they offer for downloads.

    Try Virustotal if you think it's not trustworthy.

    No one here can give you the specific opinion you want. As Berton says, Majorgeeks is a reliable site.

    I tried v2.73 and can find no difference. I looked in %programfiles%\send to toys folder and found no change-log. Not even the DPI/blurry interface was fixed.

    Just out of curiosity, I checked "https://www.gabrieleponti.com/index.html" website in internet archive and the last update was in 2022 for v2.72. Then the website disappeared. I have no idea where the v2.73 comes from so maybe it is best to stay on v2.72.
