Here is a list of some small free portable Windows software, tools, utilities & applications for Windows 10/8/7, which do not require installation. While porting this post about Windows Tools from WinVistaClub.com here, I have updated this list to ensure that its works for Windows, 64-bit & 32-bit, too. I have restricted the list to tiny, installation-free, portable, freeware, general utilities only. Just paste these tiny’s in a separate folder and use them. Many of those I tried, worked on my Windows 10, but if you find difficulty in running them, try running them in the compatibility mode. And if I have erred somewhere, I’d appreciate it, if you’d bring it to my notice.
Free Portable Windows Software
In some cases I have linked directly to their home pages, whereas in other cases, if the freeware has been discussed here, I may have linked to their posts on this site itself. An before you use these, make sure they support your version of the Windows operating system.
