I’ve noticed a few computer questions scattered here and there, and it crossed my feeble mind that some might be interested in what I hae found to be the “best” free programs and apps 0ver the years, for various purposes.

Google Earth Pro. Find and view any location in then world. https://google-earth-pro.en.uptodown.com/windows/download



Libre Office. Replacement for Microsoft Office 365, and it’s better than Microsoft’s Office Suite.

VLC Media Player. Better than Windows Media Player by a long shot! Has fully customizable performance, surround sound, 10 band graphic equalizer, pream, spatial adjustments for speaker locations, etc. https://www.videolan.org/vlc/
