Fresh Install: Recommended Programs?

[Rick Sanchez]

Hi Guys,

I have just this second completed a fresh install of Windows 7 64bit after being advised to avoid Windows 8. What programs would you recommended me? I have installed MS Security Essentials already and Dropbox as it has my program list on it but it has 130,000+ files to sync apparently...

What ISO program(s) would you install to cover everything? Burning, Creating, Editing, Mounting etc. One program if possible?

not really what you were asking for , but I use http://ninite.com

select all the apps you want to install, click get installer, and install them all with one easy .exe

Thanks, that'll come in handy... I'll wait to see what other people post as well

cocktime

Typo?

[Mobileman]

no that would be my name for quicktime

[Rick Sanchez]

Ah ok, I'm trying to avoid all Apple products/programs if possible

Is DAEMON Tools still the best?

What's the best NFO viewer now? As Damn NFO viewer is no longer in production

Def ImgBurn for burning and creating ISO's. Brilliant program and 100% free. (">

What about mounting them? To save messing around with game disks etc..

TypeItIn never without it on any new machine I get it's one of the first things I put on, most people won't get it as I didn't when it was first recommended to me but the advice I was given when I tried it was to give it a week and really try and use it and you won't ever want to be without it.

So IMG Burn for burning and Power ISO for mounting? Or Power ISO for everything?

i was going to say ninite too, cant live without that site and you should try 'everything' on there, its similar to windows search but its absolutely instantaneous, i use it all the time now as its often quicker to type a file name and use that to find it than it is to click through windows, even when you know where the file is.

After re-installing and whacking on all the available Windows updates I stick on:

Putty
7-zip
Dropbox
iCloud control panel
Coreavc

and that's me done.

Struggling importing my old MS Office account settings from 2007 to 2007. Any ideas?

[Mr.James]

Grab the contents of your old:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\
folder and dump it in same location on your new install.
Do same for:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\
then fire up Outlook and it should upgrade your old profile automatically.
