The Windows add/remove program is probably even worse than its defragger.

I'm fairly certain there is a list but i'm not certain of how comprehensive it
is. Any release, even alpha releases have merit, extra functionality, reduced

The 3.4.0 does normally work excellently well and is better at .docX and .xlsX

that you have more confidence in having a way of solving problems when they
