Picture viewing/reformatting editing: XNView (NOT the MP version). Music player/organizer: Winamp. Video player: Media Player Classic. Browser: Waterfox or Pale Moon. PDF viewer: Foxit Viewer 6.x (newer ones are trash). Archiver: Winrar. Office suite: Libreoffice. Crapware blocker: Unchecky. Privacy tool: Privazer.
Panopreter Basic, for turning text files, including *.rtf, into speech in most major installed languages. Dr. Geo and EuklidDynaGeo for the constructions of Euclidian geometry. Dr. Geo is rather basic and some of the documentation and samples have been poorly (or not at all!) translated from French, but the program's native file format gives amazingly clear output with a small file size. EuklidDynaGeo has far more constructions, but to see slanted lines instead of staircases you have to export as a picture first (and change from the program's standard to a good export resolution). Again, language can be a problem, as the last version has never been translated into English. So you'll either have to work with the program in German (which is what I do) or settle for a slightly less sophisticated product.

This was a very informative video and it was very well made. Over half of these programs I have never even heard of and was quite new to me. Nice job!!
All very well until you discover Brave for instance requires you to have a much more up to date ios than say Chrome or Safari does, both happily run on the older ver of ios as do other browsers, Brave does not. This situation effectively means you have to get yourself a newer ipad to use Brave on your iPad, if Chrome can run on an olderish iPad why can't Brave?
I installed Everything o my computer becauseof one of your videos. Great program. I see the new chromebook has an Everything key. Is it THE Everything built-in I wonder? Not that I'm gonna buy a Chromebook any time soon! 😳 Great vieo, thanks!
Very knowledgeable and intuitive. Thanks for creating this video; I do realize that they take up your time and money. I enjoyed my “first watched,” video that you have created. Excellent video!! Totally enjoyed it !! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@@tausiftaha12 spotify? didn't understand that part. but i guess i'm talking more about the video controls during playback. the rest i don't care much about :D
Hello sir iam not sure why you are not getting the response from youtube that you deserve and most people watch useless youtube shorts i just wanted to tell you that thanks for uploading these videos they are really helpful and also your movie series suggestion videos are also great i wish you good health sir
Thanks for doing this informational video: I downloaded 3 programs you recommended from the links in your vid. GREAT JOB! You have a new subscriber now!
Great info. Awesome stuff. Free, and useful are always welcome. I already use 7 zip and sometimes Brave browser but I am definitely getting a few others. Thanks.
For the image viewer and vlc player how much space does it take up my laptop doesn't have much space so I'm conservative on what I'm gonna download and when
You can't check that yourself? I don't think it's a lot, 100-200 mb maybe. I could be wrong though. And I hate to be that guy, but if you are using windows, you may consider switching to Linux if you need more space. Most distros take 3-4 time less space after install. Some are even about 1-2 gigs after install. And those are usually quite lightweight as well
Chrome seems to underlie most browsers. But if you are sick of Google et al customizations then Chromium which is the open source that Google uses but without default crap. I have the latest portable version running all in one folder.
bandwidth d saved??? how about memory usage??? i choose firefox cause its option to use only 1 thread for processing it really keeps my pc from clogging up
Thank god this is not just another of the multitude of self-serving would be influencers Luring viewers in with unfulfilled click bait. I am already using some of these and they are all great plus there are some more here I may have a play with. Thanks so much for actually delivering good stuff not just bullshit Click bait headlines. A rare subscription from me
-- Thumbs up. Do you (or anyone) know of a free system ram cleanup tool? Something I can run, it scans system ram and removes junk that doesn't need to be there. Be a great help.
Open Shot looks interesting and I'll give it a try. I never needed much, having used the movie maker that came with Windows 7. When I had to move on to Windows 10, I wanted to replace it with something that had those same basic functions. If the replacement has more, fine, maybe I can grow into it.
You probably already now, but I'll still point out because I took a while to notice, but Windows 10 has its default video editor....Haven't tried myself though, I recommended to my girlfriend for college purposes and it worked for her
@@Addam3000 Thanks, I'll give that a look. Interesting how some of those things are thrown into the OS, but it often takes word of mouth, videos, and so on to tell us about them. I just learned yesterday that they gave us minimalistic web camera softare.
For my Zorin OS 15 computer, I like "Screenshot" due to it's easy use, and "Cilpit" to save copied text, and "Keep Note" for saving all sorts of info and pictures from recipes to Electronic notes. Keep Note is taking the place of AZZ Carfile which doesn't work well on Linux even with Wine loaded.
The question I have for you is this : Can this be transferred from Windows 10 to 11 without having to go through the whole input system which I find tedious to say the least?
I have just downloaded ImageGlass. Using it to rotate a NEF file, It rendered the image with a sepia tone and modified the file such that it could not be opened in lightroom. It might be ok for jpgs but that's about all. Try Honeyview as a faster and better rendition viewer for most image files. For NEF files I use Nomacs, which will rotate an NEF file but without the damage. I have already uninstalled it. I would put ImageGlass in the category of "if you really really must"
I installed Brave several months ago and it worked great, but now every time I try to run it, it just closes itself after a few seconds. Any ideas why, and how I could fix that? I've probably inadvertently done something to it but I don't know what.
I had the same problem with Firefox. Never happened to me on any browser before. I restarted my computer and haven't seen the problem in a month no. Mystery to me.
Hi TechGumbo! I know this is not related at all but just wanted to ask if you can do a video on how to restore wifi settings. Wifi option is gone and I have tried to do some troubleshooting but nothing works. Hope you'll notice this! Thank you!
I used VLC successfully in the past, however the lates generation tries to capture and hijack anything that you download. Could not find a work-around. Hope they fix it, or that someday I find out how to make it work correctly.
I cannot agree with openshot. i've had my fool with it and its slow, Laggy, and if you dont have a pretty good computer it kinda sucks. if your looking for a editor just use divinci resolve or a web editor. If you dont agree well you might be right but for me its just not that fun to work with.

Hmm, I think Discord and Guilded are nice
Jarte.
It's a scaled down word processing program with spell checker.
Free means you get more problems free
Premiere Pro better 👌
now I think you should make an updated Vivaldi tutorial
I like Blender. Its free and does all types of things

Vivaldi has so many features, it takes time to learn how to use it to it's full potential. That side-by-side view is extremely handy though
Using Vivaldi since 2016 and I just love it.

It’s so satisfying that some people is still calling software “programs” instead of “apps” everything is an app now
Do you realize a program is an application? App is just an abbreviation for application. I guess you have never programmed on a computer since if you had you would know that. Ignorance must truly be bliss for you...

Yet another informative & very useful video from TG! Another one to bookmark for later use! Thanks TG for these amazing videos! 👍👍👏👏
It's funny I been using VLC for years.
My dad recommend it to me when I was 6.
Great if got a dvd drive , you play any region with VLC.
I use several of these programs because you have recommended them previously. Thanks.
This was a very informative video and it was very well made. Over half of these programs I have never even heard of and was quite new to me. Nice job!!
If anyone wants a less cluttered Vivaldi, Opera is the best alternative (from my knowledge)

This situation effectively means you have to get yourself a newer ipad to use Brave on your iPad, if Chrome can run on an olderish iPad why can't Brave?
Winamp, Audacity, GIMP, VLC, qBittorrent, OBS Studio, Icechat are among my deployment packages.

I see the new chromebook has an Everything key. Is it THE Everything built-in I wonder? Not that I'm gonna buy a Chromebook any time soon! 😳 Great vieo, thanks!

VLC is a winner. I have it on both my pc and my phones.
Very helpful video. Thank you.
Audacity 1.2.6 audio editing, flow creation and sound file decoding.
Very knowledgeable and intuitive. Thanks for creating this video; I do realize that they take up your time and money. I enjoyed my “first watched,” video that you have created. Excellent video!! Totally enjoyed it !! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I'm curious...how would you compare vivaldi to Firefox?
VLC player is also now available on the Xbox one.
Personally I prefer irfanview for photos, but i’ll have to give imageglass another shot
Great video, learned a lot ! Thanks again for sharing these tools!
That vlc overhaul maybe they will change the userface to look like the mobile app? It is quite modern and nice looking on mobile.
I don't agree, I love VLC mobile but I don't think it should be like Spotify on PC
@@tausiftaha12 spotify? didn't understand that part.
but i guess i'm talking more about the video controls during playback. the rest i don't care much about :D
@@IcoKirov I mean, VLC mobile is more like a music player than a video player, while it's the opposite on pc, I like it that way
@@tausiftaha12 I see, but what makes it more like a music player? I don't see it
@@IcoKirov like look at the aesthetic, it screams music player
Wat about best antiviruses
I've been using Vivaldi for years and I love it! I use so many features from it on daily basis.
Notepad ++ I can't live without it

I was waiting for years for the vlc movie creator, checking on it periodically. Now development has seemed to go backwards with no download available.

You can get davinci resolve base version for free, if you don't want to use open shot.
This is helpfull for my Minecraft legacy heheheh, thank you so much.
The question I have for you is this : Can this be transferred from Windows 10 to 11 without having to go through the whole input system which I find tedious to say the least?
tnx for suggestions

can you make a video on best data recovery tools
Thanks man.
winrar is actually free to use forever and no limit, even though they expect you to buy it ... you just skip it :)
Thanks!

I have just downloaded ImageGlass. Using it to rotate a NEF file, It rendered the image with a sepia tone and modified the file such that it could not be opened in lightroom.
It might be ok for jpgs but that's about all. Try Honeyview as a faster and better rendition viewer for most image files. For NEF files I use Nomacs, which will rotate an NEF file but without the damage.
I have already uninstalled it.
I would put ImageGlass in the category of "if you really really must"

OpenShot won't take .TSV videos. Shotcut will. That makes Shotcut a winner as far as I'm concerned.

Wonderful davice
now I think you should make an updated Vivaldi tutorial
VLC is great
loving your channel going to try this one had all of them could not work therrm :( /....................
I know all of them but still a nice video.👍
Irfanview!
Not sure what's happened to VLC lately, but it is forever crashing. Is it just me ?
i had to ditch VLC
Have you uninstalled, reloaded Windows and then re-install?
Audacity, Irfanview, Gimp, Inkscape
I love using Irfanview! Great program!
For images I would siggest nomacs
Best apps 👍

Irfanview
Come on, we all know that Media Player Classic Home Cinema is the best Free Video player and Winamp the best music player, and their are not here...
Libre office
Finally you pay attention to mac
Where is blender?

No love for Notepad++ ?
Any program have some subscription or follow some data like where to log cant be secure it have database of your data in some level .
ASTOUNDING!!!
