Scott has compiled a list of some really great utilities for the Windows operating system. Some are specific to Win8 but most of them will work just fine on earlier versions (run Win7 on all of my machines).
Scott Hanselman's 2014 Ultimate Developer and Power Users Tool List for WindowsWell worth checking out -- I was already familiar (and using) a bunch of his suggestions but there are a couple ones that are new to me that I will be checking out this afternoon. Good stuff!
Everyone collects utilities, and most folks have a list of a few that they feel are indispensable. Here's mine. Each has a distinct purpose, and I probably touch each at least a few times a week. For me, "util" means utilitarian and it means don't clutter my tray. If it saves me time, and seamlessly integrates with my life, it's the bomb. Many/most are free some aren't. Those that aren't free are very likely worth your 30-day trial, and very likely worth your money.
This is the Updated for 2014 Version of my 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2011 List, and currently subsumes all my other lists. I�ve been doing this for a decade!
These are all well loved and oft-used utilities. I wouldn't recommend them if I didn't use them constantly. Things on this list are here because I dig them. No one paid money to be on this list and no money is accepted to be on this list.
