TOP 5 BEST/ POPULAR PROGRAMS BY CATEGORY...


I like Corel's PaintShop Pro 2022 for doing graphics/pictures, myself. I also prefer MS Edge to Chrome as you can see/fit more favorites on the favorites bar as it gives you the option to 'Show icon only'. No other program compares to Calibre for ebook management/ library. Outlook still rules for an email client for me. Bitwarden for passwords is my preference. Visual Studio Code for code editor if you add that listing. I am surprised there is no mention of Tor Browser or a listing for FTP clients. One of my favorite utilities is Default Program Editor (Default Programs Editor), BTW.

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to mechanical deterioration this PC has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.

I still have every version of PSP installed, starting with v 4.12 There was a bit more of a learning curve with the latest Corel one, but just customizing the toolbar for what I do the most got me using and liking it :)

Welcome to Eleven Forum.

I do like PaintShop Pro, but prefer the original Jasc version before Corel bought them out. I'm still using PSP 7.04 in W11.
I gave my daughter my last copy of Paint Shop Pro when Jasc sold out to Corel. She's become quite proficient with it. I always bought the full version upgrade so I could give her my older one.

I would add Bing to the search list. It's come a long way and is very good now.

Also IrfanView is more than a picture viewer. It is also my most used editor.

You are correct, except that, I still feel that Bing hits sway more towards Trending results, where Google tries to remain technical and relative.

I honestly get virtually the same results with either one.

I do agree with the pick of Thunderbird for an email client. It's the closest thing to Outlook (very similar actually) with the advantage of being free.

Yeah, quite often, depends also on your search settings.
Bing, actually, is often more informative!
For instance, I search Google for lasagna and get what it is, recipes and restaurant results..., Bing will actually return nutritional info, etc.

I'm pleasantly surprised to see that Bing's voice search is completely responsive, if not more responsive than Google's!
Why? Cuz I'm lazy! I hate typing if I don't have to!

I gave my daughter my last copy of Paint Shop Pro when Jasc sold out to Corel. She's become quite proficient with it. I always bought the full version upgrade so I could give her my older one.
Did someone say they like Jasc Paint Shop Pro?
