1. Erase - with a right-click you can securely delete or move confidential file
   
   1. Disable running of scheduled tasks
2. Metapad* - almost as tiny and fast as notepad but with unlimited undo's and a couple of other nice features. However, I do find I use notepad++ more often now.
3. Snagit - screen capture utility. Most used feature, autoscroll, which scrolls to capture all contents of a window.
4. GoFullPage - Chrome Browser extension to capture entire webpage
5. Quick SFV 64-bit - use md5 or sfv files to ensure integrity during transport of files.
6. Synergy - Control multiple computers from one keyboard and mouse over your network.
7. Oscar's Renamer Pro - I have not tried this, but it promised to be similar to Chgname 3.2 which allows renaming of multiple files or folders by converting the list into a text editor. Really great way of renaming things on mass.
8. TeraCopy - Consider TeraCopy when copying lots of files over a network. It is faster, verifies files, allows pausing and keeps track of failed copies which you can redo.
9. Any Video Convert - This was the only free utility I could find that works with VOB files and could combine them. VLC and Handbrake could convert, but they had trouble loading multiple VOBs.

1. FTPDMIN - Minimal ad-hoc zero footprint command line FTP server with no password required. Use for quick transfer.

SSH and SFTP Clients

If you heavily use SSH consider putting together an web page that will launch an ssh application.

Critical for administrator in order of preference,

1. Termius - My new favourite on the Mac and may be better than BitVise.
2. BitVise Tunnelier - The simplest and most reliable program I have found for SFTP and Tunneling that is also free for personal use and individual use within a company.
   
   1. No Putty Integration (console included is not as universally compatible)
   2. GUI for tunneling
   3. Hides in System tray
   4. Does not support drag and drop from desktop
3. Kitty (Portable Version)* - Takes the actual Putty code base and improves the interface with the following key features. Here are the details of my personal configuration file,
   1. Portable option - instead of Windows Registry saves to local file in the directory
   2. Transparent Windows (CTRL-Up Arror and CTRL-Down Arrow)
   3. CTRL-F7 Pin Window to always be on top (useful with Transparency and especially with second or third monitor) - though I tend to use Winkey+F9 using Hoekey
   4. Improved sizeable, searchable, folder based session manager, but still not as good as Putty Connection Manager
   5. Change default or individual colour scheme to one of these collections
4. Putty - I find this to be the most reliable compatible and universal. However, the interface is dated and Kitty is much better. I now package this as part of Putty Connection Manager. Generally I adjust the defaults to:
   1. Window - Columns = 100, Lines of scrollback to 2000
   2. Window, Translation - Received data assumed to be in which character set: UTF-8
5. Putty Connection Manager mremoteng.org - Has a unzip package version. It is not truly zero footprint, but you can export all your connects and import to a new computer.
6. Super Putty (code based from Putty Connection Manager which appears abandoned)* (evaluating move to mremoteng.org) - An updated tabbed and tree based listing interface to Putty (no install, though it does use the registry consider talking to this developers about not doing this)
   1. For convenience I create a manual package. Just download the manual package and unzip to a directory of your choice and then execute puttycm.exe.
7. SecureCRT - Cross platform and has all the features you would want. Approximately $100 for a license.
   1. Moving Sessions btw Mac and Windows
   2. Launching from Browser (it's just a checkbox)
8. BitVise Tunnelier - The simplest and most reliable program I have found for SFTP and Tunneling that is also free for personal use and individual use within a company.
   
   1. No Putty Integration (console included is not as universally compatible)
   2. GUI for tunneling
   3. Hides in System tray
   4. Does not support drag and drop from desktop

This is a very important tool to my everyday work these days,
