Carrying a USB drive full of portable Windows tools is like having a digital Swiss Army knife. No matter where you are or what computer you're using, you'll have everything you need to work, troubleshoot, and stay productive.
8. Everything
Windows search has come a long way, but it's still notoriously slow and sometimes frustrating. Waiting for your index to update or staring at the wheel of doom is the last thing you want when you're trying to find an important file.
Everything is a small but powerful search engine that makes finding files almost instantaneous. Unlike Windows search, it skips scanning the contents of files and instead focuses on building an index of all file and folder names. This allows it to display results as soon as you start typing, much like Google search suggestions .
7. HWiNFO64
When it comes to monitoring computer hardware performance, HWiNFO64 is one of the most popular tools. Unlike built-in PC system utilities that only provide a brief overview, HWiNFO64 provides a full detailed analysis of every component - from CPU and GPU specifications to motherboard details, sensors, and more.
All of this makes HWiNFO64 a useful diagnostic tool for testing PC hardware and troubleshooting problems like overheating, hardware malfunctions, or sudden system instability.
Keeping track of your SSD's health is important, and CrystalDiskInfo makes it easy. As soon as you open the app, it immediately displays the drive's health status and temperature in percentages.
CrystalDiskInfo also highlights key SMART attributes like read error rate, spin-up time, and reallocated sectors. These numbers can also help you spot early signs of drive failure before it's too late.
Uninstalling unwanted applications and software from your computer is simple, but uninstalled programs often leave behind a lot of leftover files and registry entries, cluttering up your system and taking up unnecessary space.
Unlike a typical Windows uninstaller, Revo Uninstaller digs deeper. It first runs the program’s built-in uninstaller, then scans your system for leftover files, folders, and registry entries that might otherwise remain. This thorough cleanup ensures the software is completely removed without leaving any traces behind.
4. Recuva
Accidentally deleting a file and immediately regretting it is something that most people have experienced. And if you use Shift + Delete out of habit, those files will completely bypass the Recycle Bin . That's where Recuva (from the makers of CCleaner) comes to the rescue.
Recuva specializes in recovering lost files not only from local hard drives but also from USBs, memory cards, and other storage devices. Even if you’re dealing with a damaged SD card or drive, the tool can still get to work by running a deep scan to find traces of deleted files that you might otherwise think are gone forever.
When your computer is infected with stubborn malware, sometimes the best way to fight back is with portable, dedicated tools. Emsisoft Emergency Kit is designed for exactly that purpose.
While not the most feature-rich solution—and certainly no replacement for your default antivirus —Emsisoft Emergency Kit can be a useful, no-install rescue option.
Windows' built-in antivirus protection is generally very reliable, but some malware can still get through. When that happens, the standard offline scanning feature in the Windows Security app may not be available, especially if your system has been compromised.
Windows Defender Offline solves this problem by running outside the regular Windows environment. The tool can be downloaded to a clean computer, then installed on a USB stick using the simple on-screen instructions to create a bootable drive. Plug the bootable drive into the infected computer, boot from it, and the offline scanner takes over.
1. TeamViewer
TeamViewer is one of those popular tools that needs no introduction. For anyone who manages multiple computers in multiple locations, it provides a secure and reliable way to connect to another computer anywhere in the world. It’s perfect for providing or receiving technical support, accessing files remotely, or managing systems without being physically present.
Setup is simple. When TeamViewer starts, it generates a unique ID and password that you can share with the person connecting. The remote user can then control the screen as if they were sitting right in front of it, with features like file transfer, chat, and even clipboard sharing.
