Ivan Zahariev's IZArc[^]
Current Version: 4.16
"IZArc is compatible with Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/7. Windows 98/NT and Millennium are not longer supported."
Handles: "7-ZIP, A, ACE, ARC, ARJ, B64, BH, BZ2, BZA, CAB, CPIO, DEB, ENC, GCA, GZ, GZA, HA, JAR, LHA, LIB, LZH, MBF, MIM, PAK, PK3, RAR, RPM, TAR, TAZ, TBZ, TGZ, TZ, UUE, WAR, XXE, YZ1, Z, ZIP, ZOO"
Nice tool for handling every kind of compression/decompression task.
Very professionally done, and can be used from command-line, integrated into Win Explorer. Also has features for handling "files like ISO, BIN, CDI and NRG:" will "convert such files from one type to another (BIN to ISO, NRG to ISO)."

Cedrick Collomb's "UnLocker"[^]
current version: 1.9.1
OS compatibility: "2000 / XP / 2003 / Vista / Windows 7" (Win 7 since version 1.9.0)
A neat tool for file/folder unlocking (and more) which can be run in the system tray, and can be added to Windows context-click menu, I've used it on both Win Vista 32 and 64-bit Win 7.
See the feature matrix[^] on the site for a comparison of its functionality with other tools for programmers.

That looks interesting Bill, thanks for the heads up.
I have had the problem specified and it seems very good for the price!

The problem with Unlocker is that it comes bundled with all kind of crap.
It use to put down an ebay shortcut... it now installs the bing toolbar, etc...
As a result it has been black listed by many anti-viruses and firewalls.
It's a shame because it's a good tool, I just wish the installer was not bundled with all this rubbish.

The installer offers options to not install the crap. Do these options not work for you?

F.lux[^], adjusts the contrast of the monitor depending on the time of day; also on Linux
--edit;
Doesn't fall exactly into the "Free tools for software development" category, does it?

Hi Eddy,
F.lux is a very neat program, and its system-tray-based ui is a great example of an appropriately "graphic" interface.
fyi: may not play nicely with the latest beta of nVidia graphic card drivers (which is probably nVidia's beta's problem).

If you do any form of work that requires creating graphics, there are some handy free utilities that you may want to consider. You could look at Paint.NET[^], the wonderfully named GIMP[^] and even an Illustrator type application called Inkscape[^].
|
|
|
|
|
I just came across Inkscape and was going to post about it until I searched and found your post. For anybody who searches this forum later, I should mention that Inkscape can do vector graphics well and there is an eBook available for the Nook (search "Inkscape"). It also works as an SVG viewer.

If you are doing any form of web development on the Windows stack, you need to look into using Fiddler[^].

That is my favorite third party tool.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.

It is a mandatory tool for anyone ranging from web developer to system administrator.

No list of free Windows tools would be complete without giving a big shout out to the truly indispensable Sysinternals[^]. I can't begin to count the number of times these tools have helped me out, particularly the wonderful Process Explorer.

If I'm writing some XAML to answer a question and I don't need to add any code to demonstrate the WPF code, I normally hammer out the sample using Kaxaml[^].
