Although I make a habit of avoiding Windows it’s unavoidable. A typical installation of Windows is devoid of many useful tools such as ISO creation and burning, a tabbed text editor, a useful file archiver…the list goes on.

I’ve built a list of core software, all free, which fills many of these gaps in Windows including:

  • Unzipping
  • Text editing
  • Media codecs
  • Remote control
  • Secure file deletion
  • ISO manipulation

Check out the complete list here.
