Quotes from users over at gbatemp.net:
- Only NDSTokyoTrim should ever be used in my opinion.
- just use the best trimmer, “NDStokyotrimmer” it’s the obvious best & fastest trimmer, NEVER had a single problem with it.
- The best rom-trimmer out there for the NDS is without doubt NDSTokyoTrim
Drag&Drop notes:
- Drop any kind of files, it will detect and sort the right ones (nds,gba,zip,rar,7z,folders)

Q: Which version do I need?
A: If you use Vista with UAC enabled, or with a non-admin account, you need the 2nd one, “Vista compat…”, otherwise (win95-vista without uac, and Linux), use the normal one that says 32/64-bit)

what do you mean with “Auto detection for Wifi games”. Does it do something special then?
omg…
the background is gross for little people =D
really? in what country?
Nice backgrounds, standard included in the ZIP would be nice, though.
Your program is just perfect
I try to run your file trimmer as I want to use it to rename the files and trim them BUT everytime I try to run the execuatibal it just shuts down my windows xp machine just as if I had hit the shut down button any ideas or segustions?
Did you download a modified version of it somewhere else?
No I downloaded from this site and tried re downloading it 3 times still just shuts off my computer
You must have some program that unpacks the exe at run-time (antivirus maybe?). Try the 2nd one that says NDSTokyoTrim (UAC)
Cool that one worked thanks I like the support !!! and the program all I can say is wow!!! COOL and thanks again and you might put a note anyone having problems with the first one to try the seccond one even with xp
Nice, glad it worked for you. I’ll put a notice.
