As the title says, I wondered what everyone's most used/favourite/most helpful, productive program or app they always install on a computer. If you could pick one, not including Office and Adobe reader :-) Just thought I might pick up some tips re something I didn't know of.

Edit: And not including Macrium or Antivirus programs.

Such a valuable, free & unrestricted software. There is a donation addition which I have (donate once, always get the donated updated version) but the difference is negligible, it’s really for very experienced sync operators.

I also have licenses for the three I highlighted. Couldn’t be without them. In fact I have licenses for all of them (less the free 7zip) on all 4 PC’s in my house.

Roots Magic 9 (genealogy) goes onto all my computers because for $40, I get to put it on everything I have. And, it's one of the best genealogy programs around.

Of course, I need my backup program. I've taught Macrium Free to my Windows 11 students, but since they're all seniors (me too), and Macrium no longer has a free version, we'll be learning Aomei Backupper free and Hasleo Backup Suite. Fixed income sux!

Firefox of course. Gotta have a browser that allows me to think for meself.

I could go on, since I rarely put anything on my computer that I won't use regularly.

With the exception of Office, a browser and a few base programs, I could navigate my PC, get work done and have fun for months on end without touching about 60 of the 68 programs i have installed! But, not the aforementioned QTTabBar!
I have really expensive programs I don't even use anymore! 🤷‍♂️

I'll have to check out Xnview, I'm still using PolyView but it's occasionally sluggish on Win-11 on the first use after a boot. The only thing I wish it did more was to be able to draw lines and arrows. It's hard to change after using one program for 30 years

I also have Jasc PSP 9
Email I finally had to switch from Eudora to Thunderbird
Still using WinZip and 7zip
Cant live without Active Desktop Calendar but it's not available that I know of. Someone took over the company name
CCleaner occasionally
Glary Utilities on occasion
pdfFactory for printing and PDF-Exchange for editing
Still have Adobe Acrobat Standard 8 but cannot install it on Win-11 so I keep Win-7 going on a second computer
Quickbooks Pro 2012
MS Office 2007
