Programs

I have spent a long time finding the absolute best applications available on the internet. I only post open-source or free software. Each Program node has a screenshot, a license field, compatible operating systems, and a link to the company's website. Rating is enabled.

Download Link: Autoruns

Autoruns is a very useful little application. This program, much like msconfig, allows you to view and configure those application that are starting up with Windows.

Autoruns is much more advanced than msconfig and has "the most comprehensive knowledge of autostarting locations of any startup monitor".

You can also filter by verified/unverified applications, or if they're Microsoft/Third-Party. This filtering system tends to be useful when hunting for malware.

Notepad2

Download Link: Notepad2

Notepad2 is an awesome program for editing text files. There are a lot of free text editors out there dedicated to assisting programmers, but for my basic needs I prefer Notepad2. There are a few important things to note about Notepad2. First it was built in assemblers language, which is a lower level language (very hard to program in) but means that the program is very efficient and fast. The interface is similar to notepad so it is very easy to use. There is a convenient toolbar giving quick access to necessary functions.

Enso

Download Link: Enso

I hate to categorize Enso with other application launchers, because it is so much more than that. Enso attempts to connect computing with language. Enso appears to be rather original in its approach, but for those familiar, it breathes of language like Ubiquity and Application Launcher/Searcher like Quicksilver.
