Best freeware for a new Windows box

I have installed so many Windows boxes for myself, my friends, business, family and customer. Here are freewares I usually install on the box. I believe they are the best freeware at their tasks.



Unlocker is necessary for Windows box. It let you unlock the resource just like a magic wand as shown in the icon.


Teracopy will improve your file-copy/ move speed. It is free for home users.

3. 7zip

7zip is a free archiver that support many archive formats.


Daemon-Tools is a CD/DVD emulator software. It mount many CD/DVD ripped format like ISO, CUE/BIN, Nero's NRG and so on.


I couldn't live with just IE6-8 in a box. IE are way too slow and bad at modern HTML/ CSS standard.
Foobar 2000 is a new & high quality mp3 player.


K-Lite Codecs is a pack of codecs for multimedia to support as much as possible playback compatibility. It comes with a media player freeware, Media Player Classic (MPC).

8. FastStone Image viewer

Free and fast image viewer similar to the popular ACDSee.

9. Adobe PDF Reader

Free and original PDF reader from Adobe.

10. LibreOffice (originate from OpenOffice that was dominated by Sun Microsystem)

This is the best alternative to Microsoft Office office suite.

If you have your favorite freeware you usually installed, please share.
