Sineater's Recommended Software Pack [Pick and Choose]

Audio:
Foobar - Really simple UI music player that can play any audio extension. Has a ton of plugins as well.
Spotify Modded - This version of Spotify is a bit older but it's still ad-free so get it while it lasts
Deezloadrr - Download almost any song/album with this. I included tokens in case you don't know how to register.

------------------------------------------------------

Firewall:
Tinywall - Extremely simple powerful firewall. I don't need anything else when it comes to firewalls.

------------------------------------------------------

Anti-virus/Malware:
Malwarebytes - In my opinion the best anti-malware program. This is 2.6 since any higher will deactivate.
Adw cleaner - One of the best virus removal tools I used to use when I repaired computers.
Rogue killer - Another good virus removal tool I used to use. Highly recommend if you suspect of being infected
Hitman Pro - The big guns when it comes to anti-viruses. I'm sure you all have your preferred AV let me know which one is better!

------------------------------------------------------


Video Players : all three work out of the box but have different perks. Personally I use PotPlayer but I know a lot of you use VLC and that's okay too

MPC-HC
VLC
PotPlayer

------------------------------------------------------

Dependencies:
AIO C++ - all needed c++ - Very usefull since a lot of programs depend on certain versions of C++
.NET Framework 4.8 - You might have this already since Windows 10 usually has it but just in case...
Java 1.8 - I figured I would throw it in here but latest Java if you need it

------------------------------------------------------


Editing:
Photoshop CS6 - Older Photoshop version but personally my favorite. I'm definitely not a graphics designer with a classic version of photoshop lol
Wavepad - I use this to edit MP3s. It's an audio editor
Videopad - Video editor I use. Easy to use and can do a lot of effects and more.

------------------------------------------------------

Photos:
IrfanView with plug-ins - Hands down best image viewer. Can view almost every extension and comes with a good amount of plugins.
ExifPurge - This removes Exif information from photos which is basically a digital footprint.

------------------------------------------------------

Hard drives:
Windirstrat - I use this program to see what is taking up space in my HDDs. Really good for that.
Tera copy - This is a replacement for explorer when it comes to copying and moving files. Really fast and better in my opinion.
O&O Defrag Professional Edition - Able to defrag/optimize HDDs and SSDs
Hard Disk Sentinel Pro - I usually install this program just to see the health of drives for a computer I'm diagnosing. However it has more features.


------------------------------------------------------

Text:
Microsoft Office 2016/2019 - 2016 for the people that refuse to move to Windows 10 ;) Windows 2019 for the elites        (lol jk guys)
Notepad++ - You probably know what this is but it's the best text editor. I haven't used another one this smooth.
------------------------------------------------------

Browsers:
Chrome - Papa Google browser
Firefox - Non-profit browser
WaterFox - 64bit Firefox that allows old plugins worth checking out.

------------------------------------------------------

Download managers:
IDM - Internet Download Manager which is the one I use but I know a lot of you use JDownloader and that's cool too
JDownloader2 - A free open source download manager with a ton of features.

------------------------------------------------------

Misc:
Camtasia Recorder - Use this to record your desktop. I use it to record tutorials on running emulators.
Revo Uninstaller - I love how this program completely uninstalls programs and clears anything left in the registry
Ccleaner portable - I use this to clean my computer. I don't recommend using the registry feature.
Classic start - Replaces the windows 8/10 start menu with the classic 7 button
Windows repair AIO - This program has saved me so many times it offers tons of repairs for Windows.
Shut Up 10 - A must if you have Windows 10. Basically can disable services that allow Microsoft to invade your privacy.
AirDroid - Subscription based program (free is okay) that allows you to send files to your phone wirelessly and also you can use it to send messages through text, whatsapp, kik, etc). I paid for premium and it wasn't worth it.
Everything - Replaces windows useless search with an actual search. Highly recommend
Windows Activator - Hwidgen 40.01 - Use this to activate your Windows 10. No more KMS!
Hex Workshop - A good hex editor for those that know how to use one
NetBalancer - Really niche program that purposely slows down or lags your internet. I used to use it to not raise suspicion when I would bot in WoW. Made my bot look laggy. I know someone can come up for another reason.
