jRes

jRes is a small software application developed specifically for helping you alter screen resolution and color depth using a set of straightforward actions, or open the Screen Resolution dialog. It can be deployed on all Windows versions out there.

This is a portable program. You can open the utility by simply running the executable file because there’s no setup included in the process. You can get rid of it by deleting the files that you have downloaded from the Internet.

It does not store entries in your Windows registry and leave other setup files in your system. It actually saves the configuration files on the target computer. You may store it on USB flash drives and run it without administrative privileges.

jRes runs quietly in the system tray without bothering you with popup notifications or other messages. A help manual is not included in the package. However, you can venture into decoding the dedicated parameters on your own because they look easy to work with.

The application offers you the possibility to access its configuration setting via the system tray. The system tray plays an important role because it represents the place where you can tweak the setup parameters.

You are allowed to choose between several preset screen resolution modes (for example, from 320X200 up to 1920X1080) and adjust the color depth by selecting one of the predefined options. A single click on the desired screen resolution or color depth is all it takes to apply the new adjustments.

Tests have pointed out that jRes carries out a task very quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not affected.

To sum things up, jRes comes bundled with several smart and handy features for helping you quickly switch screen resolution and color depth, and can be handled by beginners and professionals alike.
