Windirstat(to know what files are occupying large space on drives) and Everything(For searching a file very quickly)
One question about net limiter.
Should I block the connection of "system"?
It uses port 135 and in the internet some people say this port is unsafe or something like that. So what to do? xd
can you link the
wallpaper?
I was looking for something to limit internet usage by applications since my router doesn’t allow QoS. The NetLimiter program was perfect for me.
Good video, good tips!
These are the programs that I uninstall first when I see them on a Windows OS.
idk how but notepad++ put a ton of random shit on my main hard drive and fucked it up so be warned.. 🙁
Folder Sizes . It is amazing. I have version 4, works like Windows should but doesn’t.
Side note: AMD Radeon Chill is a built-in driver feature for setting framerate limits on a per-game basis, and it’s handled by the graphics card’s hardware so it won’t introduce any extra input lag. If you have even a cheapo FreeSync monitor with only 48-75Hz range, you can virtually eliminate frame delays with Chill.
Ditto – paste manager. Works for text, images, files. Features a search bar and the option to have a ridiculously long history. Searching for stuff you pasted 2 months ago is a godlike convenience. (mostly for reposting things within seconds instead of having to dig around apps for minutes)
EarTrumpet basically separates audio. Let’s say one application is too loud, you can turn it down instead of having to turn down the system audio. It’s available on the Microsoft Store
Another application is WinDynamicDesktop which is REALLY cool. macOS has had time changing backgrounds since macOS Mojave. WinDynamicDesktop brings this to Windows! Just select the OS background you want to use and boom! It will change at certain times in the day.
I would say My Files X Free (paid version is just to support the dev), but it doesn’t work for me for some reason. It’s available on the Microsoft Store
Make tutorial for S sync
Voice meter,I’m searching for years and you just gave absolutely best solution
You can use imageglass instead of the old image viewer 🙂 it starts up instantly and has a dark mode
Very very useful video 👍
Netlimiter increas the ping
warframe pog
Why does your pc look soooo smooth is it just high refresh rate and an nvme?btw what are you using to record your screen
Borderless Gaming is a good tool for sure even if you don’t have an ultra-wide screen or multiple screen setups.
I liked Stardock until I realized it cost money
Thanks
Dude will go to the library and install all of these programs
Well here is my question about terracopy:
Did someone tried to move the appdata folder? And did it works fine without problems through windows updates and so on?
Windows Terminal 🙂
7:00 Windows photos viewer
why don’t yousimply use IrfanView instead? o.O
It is far more potent and has a dark background mode since… well since forever, actually.
Thanks for this fantastic video. If you get to use other progs and so. Please do a new vid. Really appreciated 👍🏻🙂
This video should be provided compulsory along with every Windows laptop or pc
thank u
8:08 symbolic link will also work
Total Commander for the file management – for the win!
Dude, I didn’t know you’re travelling around the world to install these programs to every Windows PCs.
I concur on netlimiter, fancyzones, notepad++, avidemux. DDU when needed. Anyway, here is my list of additional programs you might find useful,
Everything (first run takes time to build file list, subsequent runs take a very short time, for getting all file changes since last run) – Windows search on steroids.
Texify (I use alt+right click combo) – Allows ctrl-c copy of text that is not normally able to be selected.
Honeyview (very customisable to suit your requirements) – A simple photo viewer, similar to the old windows photo viewer.
KeepAliveHD (7 sec read) – Prevents a spinning HDD from parking it’s head.
Crystal Disk Info (resident, startup, alert sound) – Alert for if a hard drive generates an error.
Going to look into teracopy, sharex, and fences.
Is there any free alternative for Stardock Fences?
LinkShellExtension is really useful.
Total Commander
Little late on this but there is an application called Intelligent standby list cleaner (ISLC). This is made by WAGNARSTUDIO so made by the same persona who made DDU. Stutters happen in games like Battlefield for me and my friend and we figured out it was due to Memory going into the cache and remaining on standby. ISLC clears this regularly. Also it stops my much lower spec laptop from slowing down after prolonged use.
Useful video, subbed!
soundswitch toast: swap audio out and in via hotkeys
Why do you hate the new Photos app on Windows 10? It feels very short-sighted to hate on an app just because you are used to the classic one. The new one not only blends with the rest of the OS but gives me options to crop, retouch, and annotate which I use a lot (especially the latter). The classic one is just so ugly and barebones, it’s insane that you would go to such lengths to re-enable such an archaic application purely for nostalgic reasons.
Oh and I can zoom using the scroll wheel, which the classic app cannot do and will never be able to do because it will never be updated again because it’s old and useless.
The title is so clickbaity I had very low expectations but hey, that was pretty ok!
Process lasso is a must have utility for me for gaming. Especially if you’re not running a highly tweaked version of Windows.
treesizefree
for seeing folders sorted by size
Does limiting bandwidth on netlimiter reduces bufferbloat?
5:49… "What U Hear", sorta creepy when I noticed it, but that’s exactly what I labeled my creative sb x-fi input… complete with the lazy spelling of "you" as "U" as well…
The sound settings just made my obs life much easier.. I was thinking about getting a laptop out for discord when recording..
Love your 2000 FPS
Absolutely fantastic video .. and turned this decades old pc gamer on to some software I’ve never heard of. Thank you!
I like Sublime Text more than Notepad++
I also hate new windows photo thing
