Microsoft Software Freebies

Windows is still the number one most-used software in the world but no single software can keep everyone happy. So Microsoft came out with these freebies as an enhancement to make the Windows platform more relevant to their users.

Here they are some Microsoft software freebies :

Windows Live Writer

Well here’s one for us bloggers, it’s just like using Microsoft Office Word. Windows Live Writer is an offline blogging editor. With this piece of software you can write posts directly from your desktop and then upload it to your blog. Inserting images and videos are a lot simpler with Windows Live Writer, there is no need for you to worry coding or anything, it has been taken care of for you.

The software has basic tools for you to edit your images like cropping or tilting and it helps you to automatically publish your videos to YouTube or Soapbox when you publish your post.


Desktops

Improve your productivity with desktops. The desktops software helps to manage your open windows by creating up to four virtual desktops. You can assign programs to the virtual desktop then activate the virtual desktops with a click of a mouse. With four virtual desktops it really is going to keep your screen stay uncluttered and make it easier for you to move around and do your work more efficiently.


BgInfo

If you are running a cyber cafĂ© or you are a network administrator this is the software for you. BgInfo displays the computer’s information directly on the computer’s background thus eliminating the time consuming need for you to click through several diagnostic windows to find the computer’s information.


Process Explorer

It is way better than the task manager as it provides more in depth information about the running programs. Process explorer is a useful tool to track your programs as it shows you the files and documents that a particular program uses. You can also use the software to find leaks and track down DLL version problems so you know what is really going on when your computer is throwing a tantrum.


Windows Live Movie Maker

Videos are now the “in thing” on the net. Windows Live Movie Maker is a great tool for novices to create home videos. The software is easy to use as it provides the basic editing tools you need to create the videos. Although you are not going to be able to create the next blockbuster Hollywood movie of the year with this software, it is still a good tool to make simple videos to share with friends and family.
