These are relatively recent software, however they have largely been made obsolete by the shift to Windows 7, which provides most of the functionality of the applications below.
A simple and fast file manager and integrated search tool.
Quickly find the files you need, speed up copy operations and experience quick response times.
A lightweight application launcher.
Type a few letters to find applications on your Start menu or access online services such as search and email.
An extremely small music player with a minimalist user interface.
Save screen space with a minimalist interface and minimize-to-tray option.
These are some of my really old software, most of which will run even on older operating systems such as Windows 98. If you encounter problems in running any of these programs, download mfc42.zip and extract it to the program folder.

Sort your disk drive by size or date to find the largest or newest files.
Plot graphs of mathematical functions.
Send instant messages to friends on your local network.
Manage your own sandwich stall in this simple strategy game.
