What about it
What about the Grigsoft Windiff? 


 * Is there a wikipedia article for it? Ojw 12:52, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

It's the same program. Microsoft probably licensed it from Grigsoft, or possibly vice-versa. Neither of the websites seem to overflow with details on this. Shinobu 16:03, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Neither of those, but Microsoft allows anyone, including Grigsoft, to distribute it, including its source code. Shinobu 08:49, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

POV
This article has been flagged POV before, but we edited it to the point where we felt we could remove the tag. If there are still problems, detail them on the talk page, because otherwise the POV tag will get removed. Thanks! Shinobu 11:36, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
 * POV removed :)
 * just thought, it was wierd having the criticism/appraisal comment on the first paragraph

Yes. But it is (or at least it was, before my last edit) the only paragraph, and the c/a isn't really enough to justify a separate section. As for POV... well I think that since both are rooted in actual fact, it's okay. Shinobu 11:19, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

>> The link for "RunWinDiff - a front-end to WinDiff designed to make file selection easier." doesn't work at the moment. Googling for an alternative link i found: I hope that is what the author had in mind with his first link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.216.89.153 (talk) 20:48, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Why are the "standalone installations" links pointing to pages where third parties are promoting and/or selling alternative diff tools. It seems to me that these should be removed or minimally moved to after the official download link... however as a very infrequent contributor I am hesitant to make this kind of change. 173.20.107.242 (talk) 03:15, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

Distribution with Windows
Windiff is also distributed on the Win 98SE CD-ROM (files windiff.exe and gutils.dll in the folder X:\tools\reskit\file, when X: is the driveletter of the CD-ROM-drive). I don't know, which other Windows-versions contained it, but this should be added to the article. --MrBurns (talk) 00:20, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
