The Big Awesome List of Free Software to Fill Many
Roles
The List will continue to be updated as more are found.
Categories Disk Defrag - Disk Cleanup - Disk/File
Management/Recovery/Encryption - System Information
Disk Defrag
MyDefrag:http://www.mydefrag.com/
Defragmenting tool with numerous options, useful for different types of disks (in
terms of use - "system disk" or "data disk" and physically - a USB thumb drive or
a usual internal hard drive). Not exactly for the Average Joe however.
Defraggler:http://www.piriform.com/defraggler
A simpler defragmenting tool that also allows defragmentation of individual files.
Piriform has other useful programs besides this (which would be making an
appearance later on).
Auslogics Disk Defrag:http://www.auslogics.com/en/software/disk-defrag/
Another alternate choice for disk defragmenting needs.
HARD Disk Scrubber: http://www.summitcn.com/hdscrub.html
Free secure delete program designed to help you permanently destroy sensitive data from
your PC. Use Hard Disk Scrubber to overwrite free space on your Windows drives, or to
permanently delete files so that they can no longer be recovered.
Disk Cleanup
CCleaner:http://www.piriform.com/CCLEANER
Another program from Piriform, arguably the primary disk cleanup program of
many.
Disk/File Management/Recovery/Encryption
Recuva:http://www.piriform.com/recuva
A file recovery program from Piriform.
Double Killer:http://www.bigbangenterprises.de/en/doublekiller/
Is a "fast and easy to use application for finding and removing duplicate files."
