Hidden Vista tools

The sheer number of Vista's tools can be overwhelming. We look at some of the best ones.

If Sven Hallauer ever has a moment to reflect in his Redmond office, he can feel quietly pleased with himself. As the release manager for Vista, he had overall responsibility during the development period for the success of the Most Secure Windows Ever' project. For Hallauer, however, the flexibility of the new operating system is just as important as the security features. In particular, Vista is equipped with far better admin tools than previous versions. Previously, administrators were forced to add tools from Resource Kits, but now Vista comes with a lot of tools already on board, as we'll explain later. You can tell just by looking at the increased minimum hardware requirements that there's a lot more in the new version of Windows.
