allSnap is a small system tray app that makes all top level windows automatically align like they do in programs such as Winamp or Photoshop. Hold down ALT to disable snapping.
Note: Doesn't work with floating toolbars, programs that already have this functionality (Winamp), Microsoft Office 2007, and the Command window (cmd.exe).

This is one of the most useful tiny helpers EVER!! I love the tool, i strongly recommend it to everybody! I have spent months searching for something similar, and have even made an AutoHotkey-Script to help with clean windowpositioning, but finally, the quest is over ;) |
FastExplorer allows you to customize and manage context menus of file objects displayed in Windows Explorer. You can create new menu items, submenus, dividers etc. as well as specify menu bitmaps and hint text. You can also manage existing menu items added by other programs, or detect/fix orphaned entries in the Windows registry.

Taskix lets you reorder buttons on the taskbar using drag-and-drop. Note that if "Group similar taskbar buttons" is set, you will be able to move a button inside the group or move the group as a whole, but not to move a button out of its group. If you open many windows so buttons end up stacked up on a single taskbar button, Taskix will also work inside the stacked button list.

Taskix seems to occasionally get windows confused for me. I've had a few windows which simply won't come to the top when I click on them - they stay behind the others. It's not necessarily taskix at fault (I have VirtuaWin running as well), but switching it off fixed the problem.

Very interesting application when you take time to invest in it. Much more than Rainlendar although less fancy interface. Has also the import tools and is fully Unicode. Must be used by a large number of users, as it appears in 7 languages already. New search function quite usefull. Imports are possible from Excel. Extra features, such as the Money application, can be used to replace money or quicken in simple households. The music and film functions are quite handy. I'm positively surprised : it's much better than it seems at first hand.

Apparently not free: "We advise you that the downloaded file gives you the right to try the program for 30 days. If you want to use the program longer than the 30 days, you need to buy the license key with us. The downloaded program is fully functional, and contains all 8 languages" |
AllChars sits in the system tray and provides a simple way of entering accents and special characters into most Windows programs. The program emulates the Unix "Compose" key and supports macros (i.e. replacing a short string with a longer piece of text).

I was able to download version 4.0.321, but didn't find it useful (just wanted something to help me type the musical note character)...

Version 5 (now the default download) is no longer portable. On Vista, it writes its XML config files to %AppData% (not even a subfolder, but directly in %AppData%!)

Autostart and Process Viewer helps you control which applications automatically start with Windows, and shows which processes are running on your computer. When left running in the system tray, it also helps you find out which processes and autostart entries are new so that you can remove suspicious entries.

Although this is a nice integrated package for the novice, if you are looking for something more powerful, I would suggest Autoruns (which shows you almost everything that autostarts with the system, including devices and services), and MJ RegWatcher (for alerting you to suspicious registry modifications). Both are more complex than APV, but also far more sophisticated and powerful. |
RocketDock is a smoothly animated, alpha-blended program launcher that resembles the "dock" found in Mac OS X. It features a simple drag-and-drop interface, multi-monitor support, running application indicators, compatibility with most dock skin format, relative path support etc.
Though it's no longer maintained, its basic functions were tested to work on up to at least Windows 11.

Bmp2Tab (Bitmap to Html table convertor for Windows) is a tiny tool to convert a bitmap file to a HTML table (every cell is a pixel). These scalable images cannot be saved as an image. It is compatible with IE, Opera and Netscape.

This is an excellent idea. My college site won't allow images in html as it deletes them all. Everyone is amazed that I can create images in my postings--lots of ooohs and ahhhs.

I agree that this little app is completely useless, but it has a high prank value. Since resulting html file can be nicely compressed with 7zip (e.g. 4MB->10kB), one can create sfx 7zip installer that unpacks and opens that html in browser, and since everything hangs when opening table so big, poor victim can only wait for it to completely load and watch some idiotic picture in the meantime.

This program is useless for protecting images. But it's great for when you can't use images. HTML only web hosting services, for example. |
PStart is an easy-to-use system tray program launcher with a hierarchical list of menus for launching applications and documents, much like the Windows "Start" menu. Includes support for drag-and-drop program management, customizable look and feel, program auto and scheduled start, search, and much more.
Unlike many other launchers, PStart automatically uses relative paths when adding applications and documents, so portability is automatically preserved when changing drive letters as long as the applications and documents are located in the same drive as PStart.
Note: 64-bit OS users may wish to use this in a compatibility mode.

The program does indeed have minor problems on Win7: I frequently have to restart in order to get to the "Panel" view. Based on developer activity to date, we are unlikely to see an update to fix this.

The best launcher I've never used. It works very well in Windows 10, and only in 769KB. |
FastStone Capture is a powerful, flexible and intuitive screen-capture utility. It allows you to capture anything on the screen including windows, objects, full screen, rectangle regions, freehand-selected regions and scrolling windows/web pages. It has innovative features such as a floating Capture Panel, hotkeys, resizing, cropping, text annotation, printing, e-mailing, screen magnifier and many more.
Reported to function in Windows 7 and in Linux under WINE.
Note: FastStone Capture went payware starting from v5.4 so I have made the last freeware version available (v5.3) for direct download as the license agreement does not prohibit redistribution.

@jimdorey: I'm a little confused why we had a listing that this works with Win10 -- it really doesn't. When this version of the program stopped being developed, Win7 wasn't even out yet. Anyway, I recommend trying another software package for that OS. I've updated the entry.

@jimdorey: v5.3 works fine on my win 10 x64 using a 1080p screen resolution. Maybe you're using a high DPI screen/4k monitor, and only the last version (8.4, payware, but worth every penny) works fine in that case.
