Most of the operations are represented two or even three times in different window areas,
providing several ways to select them for more convenience. For example, you can start
the necessary operation or tool by clicking its icon in the main area or by selecting the
same item from the Operations or Tools menu.
Status bar
There is a status bar divided into two parts at the bottom of the main window. The left
side briefly describes the selected operation; the right side indicates operation progress
and results. If you double-click on the operation results, you will see the log window.
Taskbar notification area icon
During most of the operations, a special indicator icon appears in the Windows taskbar
notification area. If you mouse over the icon, you will see a tool tip indicating the
operation’s progress. This icon doesn’t depend on the main program window being open.
It is present for background execution of scheduled tasks as well.
