Applications by NirSoft are tricks of the trade for Windows IT professionals, with applications designed to help you recover lost passwords, monitor resources including your network utilization, CPU and more.
The latest release, EventLogSourcesView makes much more effective use of Windows event logs a breeze for even beginning tech support reps.
Here are some of my personal favorites from NirSoft:
- Network Password Recovery - Freeware utility that recovers the network passwords stored by Windows XP (Credentials file).
- Asterisk Logger - Reveal the passwords hidden behind asterisk ('****') characters in standard password text-boxes.
- NetResView - View all computers/shares on your network.
- DownTester - Test the download speed of your Internet connection.
- SiteShoter - Take a screenshot of a Web site.
- MyUninstaller - Alternative to the standard Add/Remove applet of Windows operating system.
- BlueScreenView - View crash information stored in the MiniDump files created on blue screen of Windows.
