We’ve always been big fans of NirSoft. Over the past decade this developer has continually produced great Windows tools and utilities. When we found out he was making over 100 of these utilities available in a single portable installer – we wanted to tell you about it. We’ve used many of NirSoft’s applications on our computers for many years.
His new all-in-one portable application installer includes over 100 useful Windows tools and utilities. One word of caution — Nirsoft’s programs always seem to run afoul of some antivirus or another. These are all false positives. So don’t worry if your antivirus has a fit when you try to download NirLauncher. These are false positives. Nirsoft products have proven their safety over many years.
Here is some information from the developer’s site:
