A new Windows computer needs good software if the user wants to make the most out of his machine. Windows 7 does come bundled with useful tools, but that isn't enough. The millions of consumer software vendors around the world would have gone out of busines if that were the case.
This post will talk about top 10 free software that one must install on his new Windows computer. I've tried to limit the article to only those tools which, in my opinion, should be the tools one should install and use on a new PC. If you have other opinions and suggestions for tools, which I am sure a lot of you would, I urge you to share them in the comments so that all our readers can take a look at them.
