mymiabear Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 (edited) I am godlike-expert class when it comes to PC software and 99.8% of these software listed are lightweight and 100% portable. I AM ALWAYS LOOKING FOR ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATIONS! If you have any suggestions, PLEASE let me know!! Free or paid, doesn't matter, but it HAS to be portable! PA = Portable Apps Version (UAC)(A) = Use UACpass to bypass runasadmin UAC window (SB) = Running in Sandboxie (to prevent settings from escaping) * = Either partially or fully not portable *DEEP BREAAAAAAATH*. Ikuuuuuuuuzouu!! --------------------------- MAIN FILES --------------------------- AdMuncher - I still use this to protect myself from popups/ads that uBlock origin in Chrome mises Bandizip - My alternate compression app is WinRAR fails BitChe - The best torrent searcher app - use it daily! OpalCalc - This replaced the outdated TabbyCalc to be the best Soulver-like notepad calculator out there Chrome X64 (PA) - Portable Apps version of 64bit Chrome. I have not been able to find a TRUE portable alternative (tried sandboxed, chromium) that works for all my needs - e.g. 1Password extension CloneApp (UAC)(A) - Absolute lifesaver when reinstalling windows and restoring settings for apps like Office 2016 Converber - Excellent conversion utility Dropbox (SB) - 22GB (using VMWare referral trick hack) My go-to Cloud storage. EventGhost - The best remote control software in existence. You can do almost anything with it! Excel 2016*- Best spreadsheet Firefox (PA) - Keep this for backup in case Chrome Fails GoogleEarth (PA) - Excellent maps for seeing world Listary (UAC)(A) - The best launcher app on Windows. It is the closest I have found to Alfred for Mac. mIRC - Best IRC client Notepad++ - BEST Notepad client NZBget* - Best usenet NZB downloader - plugin in chrome is awesome too! OneNote 2016* - Without question, hands down, my most used software. It is my 3rd arm and an extension of my life. If you haven't used this, it has saved my personal and work life. I am not kidding. Outlook 2016* - I use gmail web interface, but this is the best windows mail client PowerPoint 2016* - Best powerpoint software priPrinter* - Easily the best printing management software ever coded. I use this daily. Make PDFs with it. It's so fast and lightweight qBittorrent (PA) - I am reluctantly running qBittorrent. I have uTorrent 2.2.1 as backup and I still find uTorrent 2.2.1 to be my favorite QTranslate - The best translation app ever made by mankind. Incredible incredible software Rainmeter - Best desktop software SunsetScreen - Screw Windows 10 blue light blocking software. This one is the best. Better than f.lux by a mile. SyncBack - I use free version (instead of pro) because it's updated often and author always bypasses the serial #s TeamViewer - I have Win10 Pro but still use this. The best remote connection software I have found. Truelaunchbar - I run this with Listary - my 2nd favorite launchers UltraISO (UAC)(A) - I keep this to use for ISO files just in case uTorrent 2.2.1 (this version only) - Probably the best torrent client. I am very grudgingly using qBitorrent because it's updated, but this is still my favorite VoxCommando* The best speech control software I've found. vTask Studio - Cool app to make EXEs for file and windows actions! Willmaker 2017 (SB) - If you need a durable power of attorny, will, or even living trust - use this app Winamp (Karaoke) - Modified version of Winamp to be like a karaoke player Winamp - The best music player I have ever used. I have tried the top 50 as of 4-2017 and I still come back to my idiotically tuned version of winamp WinRAR - The best portable archive app ever made. Closest to it is bandizip and maybe peazip Winscp - The best SSH app Word 2016 - Can't live without this XMind - Best mind mapping software Xntimer (Stopwatch) - Lightweight, basic stopwatch. I love this. I also like "TenTimer" from Donation Coder but it feels slow and clunky compared to this XYplorer - THE BEST file manager on Windows. Beats DOpus and TotalCommander (I've used both for years). There is no alternative IMO. --------------------------- MEDIA Apps --------------------------- 3D Batch Youtube Downloader - THE BEST BATCH Youtube downloader ever made. I paid for this!! 3D Youtube Downloader - If you need a SINGLE youtube downloader ever made ABBYY FineReader (SB) - The best OCR software if I need to OCR PDF Adobe Photoshop (SB) - Heavy/bloated, but still the most powerful graphics software ASCII Art Studio - from the maker of RegistryWorkshop - turn any pic to ASCII Audacity - lightweight basic sound editing software avidemux Awesome Duplicate Photo Finder - specialized utility to find duplicate photos BeCyPDFMetaEdit - Modify PDF meta data Calibre - the best eBook management software CDBurnerXP* - this or IMGBurn is the best. I like CDBurner's interface better FastStone Capture - I use ShareX instead of this, but keep it just in case FastStone Photo Resizer Handbrake (SB) - Top 3 video conversion software Honeyview - My favorite picture viewing software and I've tried TOP 30 apps! Irfanview = keep this as backup JPEGr - the best bulk JPEG rotation software I have found Media Player Classic (HC) - I keep this just in case. Excellent video player Mp3tag - The BEST mp3 tagging software I have found Paint (mspaint.exe) - This is actually decent basic picture editing PDF-XChange Editor - honestly I find interface cluttered and shit, but it works PDF-XChange Viewer - My favorite PDF viewer / basic edit software so far. PhotoResizer - specialized software to compress JPEGs to smaller size without major quality loss PotPlayer - THE UNDISPUTED CHAMPION of video players right now as of 4-2017. I have tried all of them and this is the king. RingtoneMaker - for iPhones RIOT - Use PhotoResizer instead of this, but here as backup ScreenToGif - I use SHareX but I this is the best app for gif creation Scrivener - Best book writing software ShareX - Arguably the best screen capture program I have ever seen. This is such incredible software. I would pay for it in a heartbeat SumatraPDF - Best ePub/Mobi readers. I use PDF-Xchangeviewer for PDFs but this is also excellent software TAudioConverter - I like Xrecode 3 better, but this is free TEncoder - I like Vidcoder better, but this has x265 Vegas Pro (SB) - Video editing software VidCoder - My favorite video conversion software VLC (PA) - Keep VLC here just in case PotPlayer fails (hasn't failed yet tho ) xrecode 3 - The best audio conversion software I have found ZoomPlayer MAX - NO LONGER THE BEST! PotPlayer dethroned this as the king. I no longer use it but keep as backup. --------------------------- SECURITY Apps --------------------------- 1Password 4 - Expensive, but THE BEST password management software ever. It beats LastPass and KeePass. If you want free KeePass is the best. If you have an iPhone, 1Password is the king CCEnhancer (UAC)(A) - Updates CCleaner with a massive database CCleaner64 (UAC)(A) - The best windows cleaner app ContaCam* (SB) - Trying this out for camera software. BlueIris is probably the most powerful but it's god awful bloated and slow DisableWinTracking (UAC)(A) - I use this & O&O Shutup! for Windows 10 Privacy EasyNetMonitor - Decent net monitor for computer EmptyRecycleBin - Special app that empties recycle bin (with keystroke set by Truelaunchbar) eToolz - My favorite portable net utility suite HFS - the best portable WWW web server hoster HijackThisPortable (UAC)(A) - Good to have for windows crapware HxD - My favorite Windows hex utility Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool (UAC)(A) - my FAVORITE antivirus.

(A) - My first app I run on Windows reinstall and after windows updates PIA (UAC)(A) - My favorite VPN PortScan - Excellent network utility suite Registry (Reg) Workshop (UAC)(A)- THE BEST advanced Registry software I have found and I have used all of them Sandboxie Control (UAC)(A) - My top 5 app. One of the most widely used, indespensible apps on my computer TeamViewer (SB)(A)(UAC) TMAC - Best app to modify MAC address (fucking teamviewer! lol!) UACpass (A) - My favorite app to make TaskScheduler shortcuts to bypass UAC windows VeraCrypt (UAC)(A) - The best encryption app so far. Replaced truecrypt VirusTotalUploader - I use this app often to send suspicious files to virustotal while running them in sandboxie or vmware VMWare ThinApp (TA) - Best app to force-create portable apps VMware Workstation Pro - THE GOLD STANDARD of all virtualization software. It's large, not portable, and somewhat slow but this is the king of the king of all virtual machine. I used VirtualBox and Portable Virtual Box for over 5 years before realizing VMWare is the best. WackGet (PA) - Decent download manager Windows 10 Firewall Control - Still debating between this and WFC (Windows Firewall Control) as to which is the best WIndows Firewall software Windows Firewall Control - Still debating between this and WFC (Windows Firewall Control) as to which is the best WIndows Firewall software WipeFile - excellent app to wipe files if you're on non-SSD --------------------------- SYSTEM UTILITIES --------------------------- AIDA64 Business (UAC)(A) - THE BEST system information utility. Business version is top of the line. I also use this to display system info on desktop (OSD) AstroGrep - Excellent grep utility AutoMouseClicker - small niche utility Bat To Exe Converter - the best way to make BAT files into EXE Beyond Compare - THE BEST file or folder comparing app Breevy* - THE BEST text replacement app. Phraseexpress has no serial or medicine and is updated frequently and is ridiculously expensive, so I am forced to use this. TyperTask is also the best lightweight text replacement, but Breevy has paragraph support Caffeine - Awesome little app to keep computer from standing by quickly ClickMonitorDDC - the BEST monitor dimmer app. Uses internal monitor settings! CloneSpy - best duplicate file finder Console2 - Excellent cmd.exe replacement DirLister - Directory lister as the name says DontSleep - an alternative to Caffeine to prevent stand by Double Driver - ESBUnitConv - Another unit conversion utility. dont use this very often Everything (UAC)(A) - My favorite and the best file searcher on windows. wicked fast EyesRelax - MY FAVORITE "take a break". it has everything I want keycastow - Excellent troubleshooting app to show what keys are being pressed MacroCreator - awesome macro creator Magnifixer MiniBin - AWESOME little app in notification tray to show if there's files in recycle bin!

It even beats the previous king - process monitor ReNamer - Awesome free lightweight file renamer Rufus (UAC)(A) - the BEST way to make USB system keys Sharemouse - The best app for using 1 keyboard + mouse for 2 or more computers. unfortunately latest TSRH medicine fails for latest versions ShortcutsSearchAndReplace - I use this specialized app to find dead shortcuts in my shortcuts directory SpaceSniffer - THE BEST APP EVER to find where your HD space is going. It beats TreeSize + everything else SUMo - This software is slow, ugly, not free, not portable and horrible design, but it's unfortunately still the best software to find updates Textify - very neat little utility to be able to copy paste from any window or place in windows ThisIsMyFile - THE BEST file or folder unlocker. This is the new king tinytask - very very lightweight amazing software to create macros! Too Long Paths Detector - >265 char file name finder Turn Off LCD - shuts down my 3 monitors typertask - THE BEST text replacement app I have found. I unfortunately have to use Breevy because it doesn't have paragraph support. If you dont need multi-line entry, this is my favorite! USB Disk Eject - the best usb ejection software I have found WSCC - My god this app is a TIMESAVER! Contains ALL nirsoft, SysInternal and few internal windows software and keeps them updated! Wish it had donation software support! --------------------------- Donation Coder Apps - NOTE I am only commenting on ones I use often or appreciate a lot --------------------------- CovArtOps - find out if your music is missing covertart Files2Folder FindAndRunRobot - I replaced this with Listary, but this is an AWESOME file launcher app. my #2 kLED - awesome cute little utility to show num, scroll, caps lock status ListNumberer - create a numbered list Mixtape - create random playlist with this app PDFInfoGUI - PDF metadata PDFTextChecker - Checks whether PDF is image or textual based PlainPaste PlayTime - THE BEST audio/video codec/container information app yet sPlaylistMaker - THE BEST m4a/mp3/audio playlist maker I have ever found TenTimer - the best multi timer or stopwatch, but slow unfortunately Text2Folders TrackErr URLSnooper (YouTube) Video2MP3 - turn any Volumouse - ONE OF MY TOP 15 APPS!
