If you like our posts then I am dam sure then you are always looking for some cool and useful software or apps. So here I am showing you 7 cool Free windows software that are really useful. These all softwares work on windows but many are also compatible with Mac as well.
So here are the 7 cool free windows software you should install now :
1. LastPass Password manager :
As we use our smartphones and other mobile devices more and more often to purchase goods online or sign onto paid services, we also have to create and use more sophisticated passwords. While we are certainly seeing an increased use of methods beyond passwords for those features, such as fingerprint sensors and even iris and facial scanning, the truth is that the simple line of letters, numbers and special characters will continue to be the primary way for most folks to access online shopping businesses and services for some time to come.
Since we are so dependant on our passwords, we are also extremely vulnerable to having those passwords hacked and used without our consent. That’s why it’s so important to have strong and unique passwords for anything we sign up for online.
However, most of us have a ton of different services we use online, and there is a strong temptation to use the same password for all of them. There’s also a tendency to use simple passwords that could be quickly discovered. That’s where password managers can become very helpful indeed.
The use of a password manager allows users to have strong and unique passwords for every service he or she signs up for online, without the need to keep and remember that information inside their head all the time. But what’s the best password manager?
Three such password manager services have emerged in the past few years as the leaders in this small, but still important, industry for mobile device owners: LastPass, 1Password and Enpass. All of them claim to offer the best way to make sure that the many passwords that their users create are available to access at any time, and that they are safe and secure. But which of these three leading password managers is the best for you?
If you have too many accounts and you often forgot your password then this software is really useful for you.I also recently started using this app ,LastPass password manager and password generator app that locks all you password In a secure vault. It will auto generate a strong password and auto fills web browser and app login for you. So now you have to remember one master passwords and It will handle the rest.
Main Features :
Main Features :
LastPass, 1Password, and Enpass all offer a way for users to save different passwords to different online businesses and services in one database, which eliminates the need to remember a ton of unique password configurations in favor of just one: the master password.
Your master password is protected with AES-256 bit encryption on all three services. What does that mean? Without getting into all of the math involved, it means that even if all of the super computers in the world were programmed to find the specific AES-256 bit encryption key that is used to store your master password, they would take the current age of the entire universe to check out less than 0.01 percent of all those key possibilities. In other words, there should be no way that master password is getting hacked directly from those services
The free version of LastPass now allows users to sync up their passwords across all of their devices, regardless of platform. If you have previously used a web browser to store all your passwords, LastPass offers to turn off that feature in your browser and transfer all of its stored passwords into your new manager. After that, if you want to sign up to use a new service that requires a password, LastPass can automatically generate a strong one for you, which you then can edit to suit your, or the service’s, needs.
LastPass also offers a way for users to pick a family member or friend to access your passwords in the event you are incapacitated or even if you unexpectedly pass away. You can enter that person’s email, along with a set waiting period, and if that period expires, he or she would be sent a message with a way to access your account.
If for some reason your go-to person gets access ahead of that period, LastPass would send an email to the original user, which would allow them to deny access. The service also has a password sharing feature that allows users to share passwords to certain services with others, such as a spouse or other family member who might, for example, need to access a joint bank account.
LastPass also offers a way to quickly fill out web forms with your personal info (name, address, phone number, etc). It also has support for multi-factor authentication, just in case you forget your master password or if you are afraid it might have leaked to hackers. There’s even a Security Challenge feature that allows users to see how secure all their passwords they have stored with LastPass really are.
So if your are struggling with a problem of forgetting password and you need a way out then this software or app will work for you. LastPass password manager is available for various platform, it is available for Mac ,windows ,and also for android.
2. Rainmeter :
I really like this software because of it functionality to customize desktop skin
As we wish. Rainmeter comes with few skin but it allows you to download mor skins for more customization.
- Skins: What Rainmeter calls skins, the rest of us usually call “widgets.” They’re small apps that live on your desktop underneath your windows. You could have an RSS skin, a Now Playing skin, a clock skin, and so on. Some skins can be very complex, resembling little applications in themselves. The term “skin” refers to what the widget is rather than what it looks like.
- Skin Suites: Skin creators can bundle a bunch of similar looking widgets together in what are called “skin suites.” For example, Rainmeter comes with a default skin suite called “illustro” (seen above on the left). You can mix skins from different suites, but it wouldn’t necessarily look very cohesive, so in general you want to stick to a specific suite.
- Layouts: A layout defines the position of your skins on the desktop. After configuring your desktop just the way you like it, you can save it as a layout and reload it later. That way, you could have one minimalist theme that only has a small sidebar with need-to-know information for when your working, and a more blown-out theme with two sidebars, more widgets, and a taskbar for when you can afford to get distracted.
- There are quite a few cool looking Rainmeter customizable desktop skins available online making it possible to find a skin that fulfills your look and feel needs. I have found some of the best skins for this article however, I started out by just wanting to showcase a few but there were so many great skins that I had trouble restricting myself – so I ended up with more than 50 examples for your to browse through. Installing a skin for Rainmeter is as simple as downloading and clicking on it. Rainmeter will start the installation wizards and help you through the simple process. Ready to fuel your desktop and take full control?
Rainmeter uses the very little hardware resources and it will be perfectly run on the Microsoft windows 7 through windows 10.
It allows you to create and modify your own skin in a simple language that's easy to learn . So now it is your time to modify and create your custom skin ,so now just go and download software and customize your desktop and take pic and post in the comment section below, so the other users can see your creativity.
3. HandBrake :
HandBrake is a open source video transcoder.
It is able to convert video form nearly any format , it is available for windows , Mac and Linux. HandBrake supports wide range of formats for input it supports wide range of formats like MP4 ,MOV, WebM ,AVI , ProRes and many more and for out it only give you two option MP4 and mkv. And also gives you some preset for different devices when you are not source what settings to use then you can you this preset settings for different devices.
Instead, Handbrake is a super-easy video conversion tool. Have a video in MPEG-2 format and want to optimize it for your iPad or Android phone? Handbrake is your tool. In fact, you can feed it just about any video format and it will transcode it into a modern format perfect for your Android or iOS device, or to play on any number of other devices.
In the olden days, I’d use Handbrake to rip DVDs (sorry, I can’t think of a better word) to my hard drive so as to save battery life and luggage space while traveling. Today, given that you may not actually ever own any physical media, but instead download movie files, Handbrake is still your best friend, helping to convert these files and optimize them for different devices
So it is good software for converting videos.
If you have any file media file that's not supported for your media player or for your video editing software then this software will work for you.
4. Media player classic :
Now you are wondering why I put media player classic on this list because most of the people using the VLC media player which is good but not good as the Media player classic.
I had a firm belief that this head-to-head was going to be a rout for VideoLAN Player aka, VLC. Over the years, I’ve used Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC), it's predecessor Media Player Classic, and VLC extensively. MPC-HC's pronounced and long-time tendency to crash pushed nearly everyone, including myself, to the somewhat geeky, but very capable VLC.
In fact, the only reason this article exists was a tenuous plan I formulated for my VLC 2.2 review to temper any unkind comments by calling out MPC-HC's numerous flaws. The only flaw was with my plan. After pitting the two players against each other on eight criteria, I'm back to using MPC-HC as my everyday video player.
Best video support: MPC-HC
I’m not sure why it surprised me, but MPC-HC played HEVC (x.265) files flawlessly, including 4K with decently high bit rates. I’d expected this from VLC, whose authors are almost fetish-like in supporting everything, but VLC didn't play the 4K files as smoothly. VLC skipped frames like they were going out of style. This won't affect many users now, but it may soon
What’s more, MPC-HC played nearly everything else I threw at it. There was one exception: an old MPEG-1 file that VLC won’t handle either. Both also had a hard time seeking in certain WMV files, though VLC was quicker on long jumps. On the other hand, MPC-HC did play another older MPEG-1 that choked VLC. Both programs played VCDs and DVDs (even commercial ones), nicely handling the menus and other elements, and both played non-protected Blu-ray movies, too.
There was another factor: The stark difference between the way the two programs react to a file they don’t understand. When VLC runs into a problem, it often goes into a loop that requires several attempts to break out of. Sometimes killing the VLC process tree using task manager is the only solution. MPC-HC simply doesn’t play a file it doesn't understand. It might be nice if it displayed a frown clown instead of just sitting there, but that's being picayune.
MPC-HC’s new-found stability with video seems due to replacing its old internal DirectShow filters with Nevcairiel’s excellent LAV filters. The release notes for version 1.7 actually stress the increased stability. LAV is based on the popular GNU-licensed FFmpeg.
Best user interface: MPC-HC
Best support for filters, shaders, and FX: VLC
Odds and ends: Tie
Best support for filters, shaders, and FX: VLC
Odds and ends: Tie
Neither VLC or MPC-HC are much to look at. MPC-HC was derived from the older Media Player Classic, whose interface is based on the Windows 95/XP Media Player. VLC has clunky icons and its garish orange work cone (aren’t you supposed to avoid these?).
But the real difference is that MPC-HC's menus and features are far better organized and laid out. MPC-HC’s context menus don’t change as VLC’s do when you’re in full-screen mode, and it’s easier to remember where everything is. I’ve used VLC for years and still have to hunt around for options on occasion.
I also appreciate that when I resize MPC-HC, it stays that way, even when I'm looping a video. VLC always returns to its previous window size when it starts playback again. This wasn't as close as I made it sound. VLC could use a lot of UI work.
This was a tough call. Both players play normal speed and allow you to skip anywhere you want in the material. But VLC has more granular speed control; smoother slow speed playback; it stretches/compresses audio to retain the original pitch, instead of simply speeding it up or down as MPC-HC does; it lets you loop portions of the material, which MPC-HC does not allow; and it offers a few more tweaks that you can apply to video, such as interactive magnification, although they're hidden away in multiple dialog boxes.
MPC-HC lets you use shaders (aka filters or FX), such as grayscale, edge sharpen, and emboss. You can also load these from files, but I never located any that don’t already ship with MPC-HC. There may be some, but the MPC-HC crew never responded to my queryand I got tired of hunting around. I’m calling shaders/FX a tie, but more facile and feature-complete playback wins the day for VLC.
VLC has a very nice audio boost feature built right into the volume control, where MPC-HC has its boost buried in a dialog. VLC is cross-platform, supporting just about everything, including Windows Phone and Windows RT. Wow. MPC-HC is Windows-only. A big shout out to the VLC guys for that.
MPC-HC feels tightly programmed, which is something I appreciate from my days coding. I run a Core i7-3770 with SSDs, which tends to make everything seem the same speed; but MPC-HC still opens faster, reacts more quickly to drag and drop, and even resizes more smoothly. Then there's it's ability to play back 4K. It’s not a massive difference, but it's there.
And I hate to harp, but it MPC-HC doesn’t waste your time trying to close it when it can’t read a file. VLC should really up its file-parsing game.

in the images you can see the comparison between Media player Classic and VLC player in VLC there is some of the dark color combination is missing and it is gives bright look to the video now in a media player there is a more realistic view. So as compare to VLC Media player Classic is good And realistic. So now it's your turn to use this player for watching new movie.
5. 7zip :
7zip is a program that most of you have already . It is extremely popular program for compressing files ,extracting them from source of file containers it is very similar to the winrar except it supports more file.
If you come across a file containers that you never seen before then this wil handle them all.
7-Zip's remit is simple: it compresses and decompresses files. With hard drives and SSDs now larger and cheaper than ever, you might well wonder just why such tools are still needed. Two key reasons are the internet (compressing files means they can be sent and received faster) and security (compressed files can be encrypted and password-protected Whether you're looking to save space, secure data, or just back up your important data in an efficient manner, 7-Zip has all the bases covered.You can also make self-extracting compressed archives that you can send to others without having to worry about what software they have installed.
7-Zip is free, fast and tiny. As well as the all-important Zip format, there's support for the creation of numerous other types of compressed file including 7z, BZIP2 and TAR.
Things are even more impressive when it comes to 7-Zip's decompression support; the list is seriously lengthy: AR, ARJ, CAB, CHM, CPIO, CramFS, DMG, EXT, FAT, GPT, HFS, IHEX, ISO, LZH, LZMA, MBR, MSI, NSIS, NTFS, QCOW2, RAR, RPM, SquashFS, UDF, UEFI, VDI, VHD, VMDK, WIM, XAR and Z.
The fact that ZIP and RAR files are covered is reason enough to install 7-Zip right away – everything else is a bonus. Compression rates in the program's native format are particularly impressive.
If you need to be able to work with anything other than regular zip files, 7-Zip is ideal for the job. A tool that easily falls under the heading 'essential'.
User experience
7-Zip can be used in two ways. The first option is to fire up the main program window and work with compressed files through the file manager. The second is to use the context menu, which gives you access to a key set of options by simply right-clicking on files.
7-Zip's file manager's interface is a little confusing. Unlike most compression tools, there's no option to create a new compressed archive and then add files to it. Instead, you have to begin by selecting the files and then then compress them.
7-Zip's various configurable settings are likely to be off-putting to a beginner. There's little, if anything, in the way of explanation for many of the options. That said, the default settings will work just fine for most people, and key options such as whether an archive should be password-protected or not are fairly self-explanatory.
A friendlier way to work with 7-Zip is to use the context menu. After you've selected one or more files in Windows, the right-click menu enables you to add them to a compressed archive in a few clicks. There are other options such as zipping files and adding them to an email which is a nice time-saver.
So by using 7zip file compression program you can compressed file up to ultra level 7zip gives option to compress file to ultra level and if you want then you can protect container by password. So overall it pretty simple program but really really useful.
