Assembly suggestions.

Write your suggestions in the comments, but keep in mind that the assembly is not rubber and it is not possible to fit huge programs on 1 disk. Every day people use DVDs less and less. In this regard, this time the image exceeded 4.7 gigabytes and the entire image on a regular DVD disc will not work. If you still need to fit WPI onto a disk, then extract the ISO image to your computer's disk and remove all programs you do not need from the INSTALL folder. Once the data size is reduced to 4.7 gigs or less, you can burn WPI to a regular disc.

Below you can download old versions of our WPI assembly:

V otherwise applications will appear on the computer that will simply clog the hard drive, which does not affect the operation of the device very well.

Programs for Windows 10 have become a sought-after object of search, study, components of all kinds of ratings and reviews.

If we talk about which applications for the computer are the most necessary and useful, we should immediately make a reservation: a lot here depends on taste, preferences, on who needs which programs to work with, etc.

There is a certain set of applications required for each user, without which no computer or laptop will be provided. basic set important features such as:

  • compiling, reading and storing documents;
  • viewing images and video files;
  • playback of sound files;
  • work with the camera;
  • navigation on the Internet;
  • ip-telephony, voice and video communication;
  • downloading files from the Internet;
  • search and update drivers;
  • safety.

There are other types of programs that are not included in the mandatory list, but each of them can also have a circle of millions of users. This includes all kinds of graphic editors, game programs, applications for setting up, optimizing and cleaning your computer, editing audio and video files, burning discs and a number of other tasks.

This is the most necessary software software with which any user starts equipping his operating system.

Some of the applications are preinstalled in it. The tenth Windows is no exception, as Windows 10 is often called in computer slang.

A brief overview of the programs preinstalled in Windows 10

The set of applications that comes with the operating system can hardly be called rich, but it still has useful software.

It’s worth starting with a novelty that appeared in this particular version of Windows - the browser Microsoft Edge. This new development by the operating system manufacturer leaves a good impression: fast start, good speed work, responsive interface, viewing comfort, convenient menu and settings. True, for full-fledged competition and leadership among browsers, there is still not enough support for extensions. However, it seems that if Microsoft continues to develop its browser, and does not treat it like the infamous İnternet Explorer, the future of Microsoft Edge may promise excellent prospects.

Internet Explorer v operating system also available, but it is quite far hidden.

You can find it through the search bar on the taskbar, or in the C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\ folder (the file you need to run is called “iexplore.exe”). Latest Versions This browser was surprisingly good and functional, but by that time its reputation was so badly damaged that few people wanted to return to it and use it again.

Another promising development that appeared in Windows 10 is voice assistant Cortana (Cortana), which, by voice command, performs actions on the computer and on the Internet. Unfortunately, the program does not yet work in all languages ​​and in a limited number of regions, in particular, it is not available for Russian-speaking and CIS countries. Those who know English well can use it by changing the main language and region in the system settings (for example, to the USA or the UK). Russian language support is expected in the coming years. Similar Applications were previously developed for mobile phones, but for computer operating systems this is a novelty.

Other useful programs installed in the operating system are actually a repetition of the software available in previous versions Windows and do not contain significant changes. This does not diminish their merits and significance. These include:

  1. Graphic editor Paint.
  2. Text editor Notepad.
  3. Screenshot scissors app.
  4. Windows Media Player.
  5. Photos, Camera, Calendar, Calculator apps.
  6. Windows Defender.

Most of the software software has to be installed on the computer separately from the operating system according to your needs and preferences. Fortunately, there is no shortage of applications and developments for any version of Windows, including dozens. Probably, there is no need to disassemble even a small part of all the software that is designed for Windows 10, but it is worth mentioning the best and most necessary programs, without which it is difficult to imagine working on a computer.

For example, archivers. There are many good options here, but the leader is rightfully WinRar program. It perfectly copes with all the necessary tasks, works with any archives, has a clear interface and is well known to most users. Other popular archivers include 7-Zip and Universal Extractor, which are also distinguished by their simplicity, functionality, and the ability to work with all types of archives.

Office programs

To work with PDF files the most common is Adobe program reader. It has a pleasant, accessible and familiar interface for many and does an excellent job with its functions. Its disadvantage can be considered quite frequent and large updates, which is not the best option for users with limited traffic. In this case, as a good alternative, you can advise Foxit Reader or Sumatra PDF, which are great for working with this format.

For operations with documents in doc or docx formats, tables and presentations, the famous Microsoft Office is in the first place - an office suite from the developer of the Windows operating system. It is paid, although it is no secret that in reality, not all users honestly pay for its use. The last three versions are Microsoft Office 2010, 2013 and 2016, and any of them can be installed on Windows 10.

The most popular and best programs included in this package are Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook, and most of the others are not familiar to everyone.

Graphic editor

Of course, the leader here is the famous Adobe Photoshop, which allows you to do whatever comes to mind with photos. There is another well-known application - CorelDraw Graphic Suite, which has expanded support for Windows 10 with multi-display viewing mode and support for 4K monitors. However, these programs are mostly good for advanced users with serious photo editing skills. For most ordinary users a good option would be Paint.Net, which has a few more features than graphics editor Paint installed on the operating system itself.

When it comes to disc burning software, Nero has held the lead in this area for many years, despite the presence of many others. famous applications. If someone is confused by the fact that the program is rather cumbersome and paid, then it has free Micro versions equipped with everything you need to record without many other features. Latest from full versions Nero and all versions of Nero Micro are perfectly compatible with Windows 10.

Driver Applications

There are many programs for searching and updating the driver database via the Internet, however, to be honest, the need for them is small, since the operating system itself can search for drivers online (or you can do it through the Device Manager). A completely different thing is a program that contains all the necessary base in finished form, which you just need to run, and it will configure and install everything by itself. There is only one such program today - it is DriverPack Solution, developed by a young programmer Artur Kuzyakov.

The latest offline version weighs as much as 12 gigabytes, which is not surprising, because it contains millions of drivers, many others useful programs and utilities.

Works without the Internet, which can be useful in a number of cases, for example: if there are no networks to connect to, network traffic is severely limited, or not detected network drivers after formatting the computer, etc.

Camera software

The standard webcam application built into the operating system may appeal to fans of Microsoft's "native" software, but has limited functionality, and therefore the need for third party programs occurs quite frequently. For video communication through a webcam, we can recommend a good free Webcamoid program that is fully compatible with the top ten. Another free application, Xeoma, is suitable for organizing video surveillance and broadcasting over the Internet. There are many other very good programs to work with a webcam, for example Cyberlink YouCam or WebCamMax, but most of them are either paid or shareware with time limits.

Programs for downloading files from the Internet

Exists various programs for downloading from regular sites and torrents. Internet is very popular for standard downloads Download Manager thanks to many useful features, “intelligence” and high download speed. It is paid, although it should be noted that not every user prefers to honestly pay for software. Free analogues are also available, but not all of them are compatible with the tenth Windows version. The best way here is the well-known Download Master program, which has good functionality and speed.

For downloading from torrent networks, there is no shortage of free applications: uTorrent, MediaGet, BitComet and many others. Separately, it is worth highlighting the BitComet program because of the ability to work with both torrents and conventional protocols.

Messengers and ip-telephony programs

Whatsapp, the most popular instant messenger in the world, has finally found an official version for Windows. However, it is not independent and is tied to the version for the phone, and therefore requires you to keep it enabled mobile device. In contrast, Viber in its Windows version requires only confirmation of the number, after which it can work independently of the android smartphone. You can not ignore and Skype. The appearance of numerous competitors could not but affect the popularity of the program, but it has not lost its significance. Anything can happen to a phone or number: it can get lost or fail, and Skype is Skype - anywhere in the world, in any Internet cafe, you can log into your account and communicate with family and friends.

It is worth mentioning where in the system properties you can find the Windows 10 default programs in order to change and configure them as you wish.

This function in the top ten is somewhat complicated. In previous versions of the OS, this could be done in the settings of the programs themselves or through the properties of any file. Now you can do this through the Start-Computer Settings-System-Default Applications section.

While the Windows operating system lives and improves, all kinds of software for all occasions develops, updates and improves along with it.
