Being Windows 98 since Windows 98, I have seen many upgrade in OS, but every version still wants you something else. Over the years, I have tried many open-source tools, some of which have become a daily part of my PC use. Today, I am sharing these open-source tools with you so that you can also improve your Windows experience without spending a penny.
quick glance
If you have used Macos at any point and whatever reason is back to Windows, a feature you should remember is preview. Select the file, hit the space key, and you get a quick preview. This is a feature that I also misses, so I found an option, called a vicious, which is available at the Microsoft Store. It uses the same shortcut keys that are used on Macos. It completed Windows OS for me on my laptop.
Pourtioce
Powertoys are a set of powerful tools for Windows created by Microsoft for power users. This is an app that you can install from Github or Microsoft Store and start using with no setup requirement. There are more than a dozen amazing utilities that can improve your experience. A tool that I use is the universal search bar that spots the search on Macos.
Local
My job requires sharing files in many devices including Windows, Mac, Android and iOS. And using several tools to share files in these devices is very disappointing. The local sent makes everything so smooth and trouble free. This app is available on all possible OS you work. It is a very simple tool, and the only need is to connect both devices to the same Wi-Fi network.
Windows10debloater
Windows10debloator is a simple utility that actually says its title. It removes your Windows 10 PC and removes almost every useless tool that consumes PC resources such as RAM or storage while walking in the background. If you are creating a new gaming PC with a new install of Windows, this tool will help you a lot to debate every unnecessary piece of software, which you will not need on your gaming PC.

Any password manager who is currently available saves your password in the cloud, and if it worries you, I just have the utility for you. Keepass password is a safe device that saves all your passwords locally on your computer. This tool looks a little old school in the context of the user interface, but it has every security facility that provides a modern looking password manager.
Jdownloader
JDOWNLOADER is an open-source download manager tool that comes with features that you will not find on the default download manager on any browser including Chrome, Firefox or any other browser. This tool allows you to download at any time and resumes them again without losing the download progress. Similarly, if the internet connection falls, you will not lose any progress.
Brave browser
Brave browser is a famous safe browser built on chromium from the ground. There are characteristics that you will not find on the chrome browser, such as AI assistants that help in various tasks, which includes a long article briefly. This includes some of the most useful safety and privacy features to protect your browsing experience.

GIMP is an independent and open source option for Adobe Photoshop. It is a powerful tool that can be used to edit photos at the same level as any other professional photo editing software. The device is available for free on almost every desktop operating system including Windows, McOS and Linux. This includes graphic generation features, such as in Photoshop or any other image editing tool.
