If Windows 7 has zip compression built in, you're undoubtedly wondering, why do I need the latest version of WinZip? Well, if you seldom use zip archives, you probably don't. If you're all about personalizing Windows 7, this app is for you. "Ultimate" is a fitting description for this mega-tweaker, which provides dozens of configuration options for UI, network, security, and system settings. This free customization tool detects whether you're running Windows 7 or Vista, and offers only the tweaks relevant to your OS. Other transfer options include a USB flash drive, an external hard disk, or a network connection. For a PC-to-PC connection, you'll need an Easy Transfer Cable (about $20). The bad news: Easy Transfer won't copy your programs. Rather, it will complete the transfer and then provide a report detailing everything it couldn't copy.
Easy Transfer won't hang if it comes across a file or setting it can't move. The new version of Easy Transfer adds a file explorer, which simplifies the task of selecting the specific files you want to copy.
If you are moving to Windows 7 from XP or Vista, you should check out this free download (versions are available for transferring from XP to 7, from 32-bit Vista to 7, and from 64-bit Vista to 7), which helps you copy files and settings from one PC to another. One such app, Photo Gallery, is a free, easy-to-use photo manager/editor that's worth a download, particularly if you aren't already using Google Picasa to organize your pics and videos.

To keep Windows 7 slim and trim–and to avoid the code bloat that slowed Vista–Microsoft left a few utilities out of its new operating system. Next, download Ninite, which installs the apps on your PC without introducing additional crapware. First, go to the Ninite site and pick the programs you want (for instance, Firefox, iTunes, and Skype). Instead, why not load most of your free and open-source programs all at once? Ninite does just that. Niniteīrave souls upgrading to Windows 7 from XP must do a clean install, a tedious process that includes, among other things, reinstalling all apps. If you prefer third-party security, check out AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition instead. (It does have a firewall, however.) You could pay McAfee or Symantec for this service, but why bother with their protection racket when Redmond's service does the same thing for free? Microsoft Security Essentials provides solid protection for home PCs, and it's gratis. Like its predecessors, Windows 7 doesn't provide built-in protection against malware such as viruses and spyware. (Click on any of the images for a closer look at that tool.)

I haven't use it to extensively yet and I am sure I can probably streamline it to some extent.Windows 7 may be brand new, but that doesn't mean you can't find free or cheap tools to tweak its settings, supplement its features, or smooth an upgrade from XP or Vista. I did have to rename the "PM65.CNF" file to "PM65old.CNF" and let the program recreate the file in order to be able to save defaults.

I can now insert the USB drive into my Windows 10 computer and start PageMaker 6.5. I then cloned the hard drive of the laptop to a USB flash drive. I reloaded PageMaker onto an old Windows XP laptop to have a more current operating system and smaller cleaner hard drive. Much to my surprise, PageMaker 6.5 started. Out of curiosity I double clicked on the PM65.EXE file. Of course this hard drive had the operating system from the old computer since I had simply pulled the hard drive from the unit. On my Windows 10 computer, I was looking through a hard drive from an old computer running windows 98 which was able to run PageMaker 6.5. I did stumble upon a potential work around. I have been a user of PageMaker 6.5 for many years and was disappointed when it would not load on my new Windows 10 computer.
