MSFN's Under 2MB Useful Software for Windows


Slimy

Recommended Posts

Multi-frontend: A gui that uses audio codecs for conversion from one format to the other. Lossy, lossless and some exotic formats are supported:

BladeEnc, FAAC and FAAD, Fraunhofer Fastenc and MP3Enc, Gogo-no-coda, LAME, MAD, Mpadec, MusePack, NEncode, Ogg Vorbis, Psytel aacenc and fastenc, QuickTime MPEG-4, Speex, TooLAME, FLAC, LA, LPAC, Monkey's Audio, OptimFROG, Shorten, TTA, WavPack. And also for: MP3Gain, ReplayGain for MusePack, VorbisGain, WaveGain and Tag.

That's nice. But its not really independent. You need to install 10s of megabytes of codecs to make it run.

I can add dBpoweramp to that list then also.

Convert: Convert is a free and easy to use unit conversion program that will convert the most popular units of distance, temperature, volume, time, speed, mass, power, density, pressure, energy and many others, including the ability to create custom conversions! File size 548KBs, standalone.

This one I have used. Its very nice.

PowerToy Calculator from the MS website does these conversions too (along with the other functions).

Here is also a new program under 2MB 1.13MB i found it some 2 days ago. It will be with me for good.

Sumatra PDF is a slim, free, open-source PDF viewer for Windows that has been downloaded 602426 times and is used by 4603 people daily.

Why another PDF reader?

Sumatra has a minimalistic design. Simplicity has a higher priority than a lot of features.

It's small and starts up very fast.

It's designed for portable use: it's just one file with no external dependencies so you can easily run it from external USB drive.

If I may, the idea of a list like this should be that of adding NEW apps, AFTER having read what has already been posted. :whistle:

[*]Sumatra PDF [under 1MB] - Sumatra PDF is a slim, free, open-source PDF viewer for Windows.

Thanks anyway for the update. :)
