Ok, so Windows 7 has been out for a while and people are pretty happy with it. But what tools and applications should I install on my shiny new Windows 7? This is going to be a list of the “Top 10 apps for Windows 7“!
1. 7stacks – Group Taskbar Icons
Assuming that you use your computer regularly, you have games, office tools, editing tools (video/audio/etc), media players and much more that all require 1 spot on the taskbar. Wouldn’t it be great if you could simply create a group of similar icons?
7stacks is a great app that allows you to create stacks of taskbar icons. In Windows 7 you are not able to create groups of taskbar icons and you will quickly end up having no room for new taskbar icons.

2. 7zip – Free File Extractor

One of the greatest things about 7zip is that you can extract .themepack files. If you want to learn more about this special 7zip feature:
3. ProcessHacker
If you want to be in full control over your PC and know what processes and services are actually running on your computer, then you will need ProcessHacker.

One of the best ways to connect with your friends and other people on facebook is through a Facebook client called Fishbowl.
Fishbowl natively supports Windows 7.
