Everyone collects utilities, and most folks have a list of a few that they feel are indispensable.  Here's mine.  Each has a distinct purpose, and I probably touch each at least a few times a week.  For me, "util" means utilitarian and it means don't clutter my tray.  If it saves me time, and seamlessly integrates with my life, it's the bomb. Many/most are free some aren't. Those that aren't free are very likely worth your 30-day trial, and very likely worth your money.

每个人都收集实用程序，大多数人列出了他们认为必不可少的一些实用程序。 这是我的。 每个人都有其独特的目的，我可能每周至少接触几次。 对我而言，“ util”意味着功利主义，这意味着不要弄乱我的盘子。 如果它节省了我的时间，并且与我的生活无缝融合，那就是炸弹。 许多/大多数是免费的，有些不是。 那些不免费的软件很可能值得您试用30天，也很可能值得您花钱。

This is the Updated for 2014 Version of my 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2011 List, and currently subsumes all my other lists. I’ve been doing this for a decade! 

这是我2003年， 2005年， 2006年， 2007年， 2009年和2011年列表的2014年更新版本，目前包含我所有其他列表。 我已经做了十年了！

These are all well loved and oft-used utilities.  I wouldn't recommend them if I didn't use them constantly. Things on this list are here because I dig them. No one paid money to be on this list and no money is accepted to be on this list.

这些都是深受喜爱且经常使用的实用程序。 如果我不经常使用它们，我将不推荐它们。 清单上的东西在这里是因为我挖了它们。 没有人将钱列入此清单​​，也没有任何钱被接受列入此清单​​。

十大生命和改变工作的工具 (THE BIG TEN LIFE AND WORK-CHANGING UTILITIES)

"Productivity is being able to do things that you were never able to do before." - Franz Kafka

“生产力就是能够做您以前从未做过的事情。” -弗朗兹·卡夫卡(Franz Kafka)

• Chocolatey – It’s a weird name, but it’s apt-get for Windows and once you start using it, you’ll be hooked. I tend to use it by default, even before Googling, to install stuff. For example, just today I went 'cinst filezilla' and 'cinst winscp' and was correct on both assumptions. Consider a "favoriteutils" batch file for building new machines and you'll be off and running in no time. Even better, use...

  Chocolatey –这是一个怪异的名字，但是对于Windows来说却很适合，一旦开始使用它，您就会迷上它。 我倾向于默认使用它，甚至在谷歌搜索之前也要安装它。 例如，就在今天，我去了“ cinst filezilla”和“ cinst winscp”，并且在两个假设上都是正确的。 考虑一个用于构建新机器的“ favoriteutils”批处理文件，您将很快就可以启动并运行。 更好的是，使用...

  • Boxstarter - Build on top of Chocolatey and NuGet and create complete Windows environments and push them to your machines with Gists from your friends or your own GitHub. Even deploy to remote machines or Hyper-V with 100% unattended installs.

    Boxstarter-在Chocolatey和NuGet的基础上构建并创建完整的Windows环境，并通过朋友或您自己的GitHub的Gist将其推送到您的计算机上。 甚至可以10​​0％无人值守安装到远程计算机或Hyper-V。

• TeraCopy - While I use the excellent built in copy features of Windows 8.1 the most, when I want to move a LOT of files as FAST as possible, nothing beats TeraCopy, an app that does just that - move stuff fast.

  TeraCopy-虽然我最常使用Windows 8.1的出色内置复制功能，但是当我想尽可能快地移动很多文件时，没有什么比TeraCopy这个应用程序能胜任的-快速移动内容。

• NimbleText - Regular Expressions are hard and I'm not very smart. NimbleText lets me do crazy stuff with large amounts of text without it hurting so much.

  NimbleText-正则表达式很难，我也不是很聪明。 NimbleText让我可以处理大量文本，而又不会造成太大的伤害。

• GOW Gnu on Windows - Sometimes Cygwin is just overkill. Gow is 130 useful *nix command line utilities recompiled as native Win32 binaries.

  Windows上的GOW Gnu-有时Cygwin有点过分。 Gow是130个有用的* nix命令行实用程序，它们被重新编译为本地Win32二进制文件。

• F.lux - I admit, I thought this was stupid when I started using it. It took a few days, but now, given that I have 3 large monitors, I can't live without it. It slowly, imperceptibly, changes the color temperature of your monitor's color as the sky itself changes. It prevents (for me) headaches and eyestrain from running bright blue and white monitors late at night. Love it. Try it.

  F.lux-我承认，当我开始使用它时，我认为这很愚蠢。 花了几天的时间，但是现在，考虑到我有3个大显示器，没有它我就活不下去。 随着天空本身的变化，它会缓慢地，无意识地改变显示器颜色的色温。 它可以防止(对我而言)在深夜运行明亮的蓝色和白色显示器时引起的头痛和眼睛疲劳。 爱它。 试试吧。

• AutoHotKey - This little gem is bananas. It's a tiny, amazingly fast free open-source utility for Windows. It lets you automate everything from keystrokes to mice. Programming for non-programmers. It's a complete automation system for Windows without the frustration of VBScript. This is the Windows equivalent of AppleScript for Windows. (That's a very good thing.)

  AutoHotKey-这个小宝石是香蕉。 这是一个很小的，速度惊人的免费的Windows开源实用程序。 它使您能够自动执行从击键到鼠标的所有操作。 非程序员编程。 它是Windows的完整自动化系统，没有VBScript带来的麻烦。 这与Windows的AppleScript等效。 (这是一件非常好的事。)

  • Make sure you get the "AuftoCorrect for English" script on the Other Download page. It's got 4700 common English Misspellings. It gives you autocorrect everywhere in Windows. Every program, always. It's just the tip of the iceberg.

    确保在“其他下载”页面上获得“ AuftoCorrect for English ”脚本。 它有4700种常见的英语拼写错误。 它使您可以在Windows中的任何地方进行自动更正。 每个程序总是如此。 这只是在尖一角。

  • Note that Window Pad - a great util on its own - is actually written in AutoHotKey. Amazing!

    请注意， Window Pad是一个出色的工具，实际上是用AutoHotKey编写的。 惊人！

  AutoHotKey - This little gem is bananas. It's a tiny, amazingly fast free open-source utility for Windows. It lets you automate everything from keystrokes to mice. Programming for non-programmers. It's a complete automation system for Windows without the frustration of VBScript. This is the Windows equivalent of AppleScript for Windows. (That's a very good thing.)

  AutoHotKey-这个小宝石是香蕉。 这是一个很小的，速度惊人的免费的Windows开源实用程序。 它使您能够自动执行从击键到鼠标的所有操作。 非程序员编程。 它是Windows的完整自动化系统，而没有VBScript的挫败感。 这与Windows的AppleScript等效。 (这是一件非常好的事。)

• Paint.NET - The Paint Program that Microsoft forgot, written in .NET. It's 80% of Photoshop and it's free. Paint.NET is also still actively being developed and version 4 is well on its way! 

  Paint.NET -用.NET编写的Microsoft忘记的Paint程序。 它是Photoshop的80％，而且是免费的。 Paint.NET仍在积极开发中，第4版进展顺利！

• 7-Zip - It's over and 7zip won. Time to get on board. The 7z format is fast becoming the compression format that choosey hardcore users choose. You'll typically get between 2% and 10% better compression than ZIP. This app integrates into Windows Explorer nicely and opens basically EVERYTHING you could ever want to open from TARs to ISOs, from RARs to CABs.

  7- Zip-结束了，赢得了7zip。 是时候上船了。 7z格式正Swift成为精选的硬核用户选择的压缩格式。 与ZIP相比，压缩率通常会提高2％到10％。 该应用程序很好地集成到Windows资源管理器中，并且基本上可以打开从TARs到ISO，从RAR到CAB的所有内容。

• DropBox - There's so many great cloud storage systems today. SkyDrive, DropBox, Google Drive, and others. I keep coming back to DropBox though. It's on every platform I want it on. It works great with large stores (mine is over 60gigs) and also allows selective sync for small amounts of data in just certain folders. Ultimately, though, get yourself some cloud storage because when your stuff is just "there", life is better.

  DropBox-今天有很多很棒的云存储系统。 SkyDrive ， DropBox ， Google Drive等。 我继续回到DropBox。 它在我想要的每个平台上。 它适用于大型商店(超过60gig的商店)，并且还允许选择性同步某些文件夹中的少量数据。 不过，最终要为自己提供一些云存储，因为当您的东西“只有”时，生活会更好。

• Windows Live Writer - If you've got a blog (and if not, why not?) then this is THE app. They've also got a great plugin community. It's the second app I install. It may be done, but it's not dead.

  Windows Live Writer-如果您有博客(如果没有，那么为什么？)，那么这就是该应用程序。 他们还有一个很棒的插件社区。 这是我安装的第二个应用程序。 可以做到，但还没有死。

出色的WINDOWS 8和8.1东西，您却不知道。 (EXCELLENT WINDOWS 8 and 8.1 STUFF YOU HAVE BUT DIDN'T KNOW.)

"If you don't pay appropriate attention to what has your attention, it will take more of your attention than it deserves. " - David Allen

“如果您对所关注的内容没有给予足够的关注，它将花费您更多的注意力，而不是应有的。”-大卫·艾伦

Now that I've upgraded to Windows 8.1 on all my machines, I really like it. Take a few minutes and learn the hot keys and you'll be flying. I went and created a series of YouTube videos to train folks on how to use Windows 8 and 8.1 effectively. Check them out! Even if Windows 8 moved your cheese, you can find it again.

现在我已经在所有机器上升级到Windows 8.1，我真的很喜欢它。 花几分钟时间，学习热键，即可开始飞行。 我去创建了一系列YouTube视频，以培训人们如何有效使用Windows 8和8.1 。 检查出来！ 即使Windows 8移动了您的奶酪，也可以再次找到它。

It's also worth pointing out that on Windows 8 and 8.1 that you don't actually NEED a lot of utilities anymore. There's an antivirus, a firewall, partition manager, ISO file mounter, a cleanup app, an app startup manager, multiple monitor taskbars, and even virtual machine creation, all built in.

还值得指出的是，在Windows 8和8.1上，您实际上不再需要很多实用程序。 内置了防病毒，防火墙，分区管理器，ISO文件安装程序，清理应用程序，应用程序启动管理器，多个监视器任务栏甚至虚拟机创建功能。

Here's a list of the best stuff that you already have but maybe didn't realize.

这是您已经拥有但可能没有意识到的最佳内容的列表。

• Disk Cleanup - It's improved, built-in and  much easier to find free space in Windows

  磁盘清理-改进，内置并且更容易在Windows中找到可用空间

• Reliability History - In the Windows 8 Start screen, type reliability, click Settings, and then select View Reliability History. You'll get a fantastic view into how your machine is running, what works and what doesn't. Often I'll find that it's a specific or driver that's causing my troubles, rather than Windows itself. This is a great unused tool for getting to the bottom of reliability issues.

  可靠性历史记录-在Windows 8的“开始”屏幕中，键入可靠性，单击“设置”，然后选择“查看可靠性历史记录”。 您将对机器的运行方式，有效的方法和无效的方法有一个奇妙的了解。 通常，我会发现造成麻烦的是特定的驱动程序，而不是Windows本身。 这是解决可靠性问题的有效工具。

• Display Calibration - Another app I once had to install, now built-in. Type calibrate from Start, and get all your monitors' colors correct and clear. Crucial for those who work on the web or in PhotoShop.

  显示校准-我曾经必须安装的另一个应用程序，现在已内置。 从“开始”中键入“ calibrate”，使所有监视器的颜色正确且清晰。 对于那些在网络上或在PhotoShop中工作的人而言至关重要。

• Problem Steps Recorder - This gem was also in Windows 7. I often have my Mom use it to show me bugs or issues she runs into.

  问题步骤记录器-Windows 7中也包含该宝石。我经常让妈妈使用它来向我显示她遇到的错误或问题。

• Hyper-V Virtual Machines - Windows 8 Pro includes Virtual Machines out of the box. Search for Features and Add "Hyper-V" to get a complete hypervisor that can run Ubuntu or older versions of Windows at near full-speed.

  Hyper-V虚拟机-Windows 8 Pro包括开箱即用的虚拟机。 搜索功能并添加“ Hyper-V”以获得可以以接近全速运行Ubuntu或旧版本Windows的完整虚拟机监控程序。

  • NOTE: Your processor needs SLAT to use Hyper-V

    注意：您的处理器需要SLAT才能使用Hyper-V

  Hyper-V虚拟机-Windows 8 Pro包括开箱即用的虚拟机。 搜索功能并添加“ Hyper-V”以获得可以以近乎全速运行Ubuntu或旧版本Windows的完整虚拟机监控程序。

• Task Scheduler - An oldie, to be sure, but one even I forget I have. If you have to do something often, scheduled it. From the Start screen type "Task."

  任务计划程序-可以肯定是个老歌，但我什至忘了一个。 如果您必须经常做某事，请安排它。 在“开始”屏幕中，键入“任务”。

• Memory Diagnostic -  Concerned about bad RAM? Type "memory" as Windows now has a built-in diagnostic tool!

  内存诊断-关注坏RAM？ 键入“ memory”，因为Windows现在具有内置的诊断工具！

• Resource Monitor - Type "Resource" from Start and get deep info into what Windows is doing, even beyond what Task Manager tells you. I use this to find rogue services.

  资源监视器-从“开始”中键入“资源”，并深入了解Windows正在做什么，甚至超出任务管理器告诉您的内容。 我用它来查找流氓服务。

• File History - It's like Time Machine. I've got File History backing up my files hourly. More than once this has saved me when I needed a file off my desktop...that was deleted last month.

  文件历史记录-就像Time Machine。 我有“文件历史记录”每小时备份一次文件。 当我需要从桌面上删除一个文件时，这不止一次为我节省了……上个月删除了该文件。

• Storage Spaces makes a giant drive out of a bunch drives. I actually copy my File History to a number of drives added into a Storage Pool with Storage Spaces. All built in.

  Storage Spaces使大量驱动器成为巨大的驱动器。 实际上，我将文件历史记录复制到添加到具有存储空间的存储池中的许多驱动器中。 全部内置。

• OblyTile - This quirky little app exists for one reason: to make prettier Tiles for your Windows 8 Start Screen to replace the ugly ones your regular desktop apps make. You can also pin Folders, commands like Shutdown, and generally make your Start Screen lovelier than it is now.

  OblyTile-这个古怪的小应用程序存在的原因是：为Windows 8的“开始”屏幕制作更漂亮的Tiles，以取代常规桌面应用程序制作的难看的Tiles。 您还可以固定文件夹，诸如关机之类的命令，并且通常使“开始”屏幕比现在更可爱。

WINDOWS 8商店应用程序 (WINDOWS 8 STORE APPS)

"If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done." - Bruce Lee

“如果您花太多时间思考某件事，您将永远无法完成它。” - 李小龙

The store is growing and there's a number of store apps I use all the time.

商店在不断发展，我一直在使用许多商店应用程序。

• OneNote - While not as good as the desktop app, I run them both as I have a touchscreen. It's even better if you have a stylus.

  OneNote -尽管不如台式机应用程序好，但我都使用触摸屏来运行它们。 如果您有手写笔，那就更好了。

• Google for Windows 8 - The Google apps is effectively a wrapper around Google's web properties, but its voice recognition technology is absolutely brilliant. It's worth installing just to ask questions like "How old is Oprah?"

  适用于Windows 8的Google-Google应用实际上是Google网络媒体资源的包装，但其语音识别技术绝对出色。 只需提出诸如“奥普拉年龄多大？”之类的问题，就值得安装。

• Bing Translator
   - The Bing Translator is deceptively deep. It supports dozens of languages and even supports offline translation! It'll also read the translation to you, allowing you and a guest to have a chat in two languages, switching back and forth. The most amazing part is the camera translation. Just point your webcam at some words and Bing will overlay the translation on the image itself.

  必应翻译器 -Bing转换器看似深。 它支持多种语言，甚至还支持离线翻译！ 它还会向您朗读译文，使您和访客可以两种语言进行聊天，来回切换。 最神奇的部分是相机的翻译。 只需将您的网络摄像头指向一些单词，Bing便会将翻译叠加在图像本身上。

• Comixology - I am a HUGE fan of Digital Comics. Guided View is a great way to enjoy comics on your laptop or tablet, and I hope Comixology continues to develop this fantastic app.

  Comixology-我是Digital Comics的忠实拥护者。 引导视图是在笔记本电脑或平板电脑上欣赏漫画的好方法，我希望Comixology继续开发这个出色的应用程序。

  Fresh Paint-绝对是一个展示/炫耀应用程序，但是它深得难以置信的广泛和广泛支持，它支持艺术家所需的工具。 混色很棒。 您可以用鼠标，手指或手写笔绘画。 对于专业人士或孩子们来说真是太棒了。

“霍夫施塔特定律：即使考虑到霍夫施塔特定律，它总是比您期望的时间更长。” -道格拉斯·霍夫施塔特

• PowerShell - The full power of .NET, WMI and COM all from a command line. PowerShell has a steep learning curve, much like the tango, but oh, my, when you really start dancing...woof. I also use PowerShell Prompt Here. It's built into Windows 7, by the way.

  PowerShell的- .NET，WMI的全功率和COM都是从一个命令行。 PowerShell具有陡峭的学习曲线，就像探戈一样，但是，哦，天哪，当您真正开始跳舞的时候……哇。 我还使用PowerShell在这里提示。 顺便说一下，它内置于Windows 7中。

  • I also recommend after installing PowerShell that you immediately go get PowerTab to enable amazing "ANSI-art" style command-line tab completion.

There's a whole list of LINQ related tools on Jim Wooley's site as well.

  LINQPad -从Joseph Albahari使用此工具使用LINQ交互式查询您的数据库。 对于那些刚接触LINQ的人或想要代码段IDE执行任何C＃或VB表达式的人来说，这是一个绝佳的学习工具。 自由而精彩。 Jim Wooley的站点上也有LINQ相关工具的完整列表。

  MarkdownPad 2-在最长的时间内，只有Windows上尝试使用良好的Markdown编辑器。 现在有一个很棒的游戏，这让其他人感到羞耻。 获取MarkdownPad 2，它很可爱。

• scriptcs - You can easily install scriptcs with Chocolatey, and you'll quickly be able to execute C# scripts with no need to compile. Just make a .csx file, no need for even a class if you like, and you're off. It's C# and PowerShell and something more. Definitely a project to watch in 2014.

  脚本-您可以使用Chocolatey轻松安装脚本，并且无需编译即可快速执行C＃脚本。 只需制作一个.csx文件，就算您愿意也不用上任何课，而且您下班了。 它是C＃和PowerShell等。 绝对是2014年值得关注的项目。

• Microsoft Web Platform Installer - When I need to take a machine from fresh install to developer machine quickly, I start at http://www.microsoft.com/web/ and use the Platform Installer to get SQL Express, Visual Studio Express and several dozen other applications installed fast. It's also nice in that it'll setup PHP and ASP.NET open source applications easily. ;

  Microsoft Web Platform Installer-当我需要将计算机从全新安装Swift带到开发人员计算机时，我从http://www.microsoft.com/web/开始，并使用Platform Installer来获取SQL Express，Visual Studio Express和一些快速安装了许多其他应用程序。 它也很容易安装PHP和ASP.NET开源应用程序。 ;

• TWO WAY TIE: Notepad2 and Sublime Text. The world of text editing has conflated to these two contenders. I use notepad2 for my better notepad, but Sublime fills that space between a full IDE (although it's very close!) and a text editor. Get them both! And make sure you add Sublime's Package Control.

  双向领带： Notepad2和Sublime Text 。 文本编辑的世界已经混淆了这两个竞争者。 我将notepad2用于更好的记事本，但是Sublime填充了完整IDE(尽管非常接近！)和文本编辑器之间的空间。 让他们两个！ 并确保添加Sublime的Package Control 。

• CodeRush (and DxCore) - Apparently my enthusiasm for CodeRush has been noticed by a few. It just keeps getting better. However, the best kept secret about CodeRush isn't all the shiny stuff, it's the free Extensibility Engine called DxCore that brings VS.NET plugins to the masses.

  CodeRush (和DxCore )-显然我对CodeRush的热情已经被一些人注意到。 它只是不断变得更好。 但是，关于CodeRush的最佳机密并不是所有闪亮的东西，而是称为DxCore的免费扩展引擎，将VS.NET插件带入了大众。

  ReSharper-无论您是在现有的大型代码库中工作还是在实践TDD，ReSharper都是市场上顶级的开发人员生产力工具之一。 试一试。

• ZoomIt - You need to present? Make your stuff seen. ZoomIt is so elegant and so fast, it has taken over as my #1 screen magnifier. Do try it, and spend more time with happy audiences and less time dragging a magnified window around. Believe me, I've tried at least ten different magnifiers, and ZoomIt continues to be the best. Even though there's magnification built into Windows 7 via the "Window + Plus" key, I keep ZoomIt around so I can draw on the screen like John Madden.

  ZoomIt -你需要出席吗？ 让您的东西可见。 ZoomIt如此优雅，如此之快，已经成为我的＃1屏幕放大镜。 尝试一下，让更多的时间与快乐的观众在一起，而将更少的时间拖到一个放大的窗口周围。 相信我，我至少尝试了十种不同的放大镜，并且ZoomIt仍然是最好的。 即使通过“ Window + Plus”键在Windows 7中内置了放大倍数，我仍然保持ZoomIt左右，以便可以像John Madden一样在屏幕上绘制。

• WinSnap and Window Clippings - I'm torn between two of the finest screenshot utilities I've ever found. WinSnap has as many (or as few) options as you'd like.

Both include a 32-bit and 64-bit version, as well as a portable no-install version and WinSnap offers Windows 7 taskbar features. However, Window Clippings also has no install, includes 32 and 64-bit, has a plugin model and is only $18. It's a tough one. I use Window Clippings at least daily, and I use WinSnap a few times a week. Both these apps are worth your download.
