Looking for small, useful software that you use frequently. Those little gems that make your day but a noob may not have heard of.

    I should add some of the ones I've found on my own, let me know what you think about these, or any others you'd recommend.
     
    Irfanview - Images viewer
    Quicklook - View Images in File Explorer by hitting space bar
    7-Zip - Unarchive compressed files
    Macrium Reflect - File back-up (and more)
    MSI Afterburner - Overclocking
    VLC - Media player
