While not a "Windows program," Ninite allows you to queue up and download a lot of the most common software installs you'd make after a fresh install.
In terms of actual windows programs, I quite like "Everything." It's basically a database of all the files on your computer that allows for near instant searching.
"Space Sniffer" is an excellent utility for finding what takes up a lot of room on your drive.
"Unidentified flying raw" is a free program that allows the manipulation and conversion of raw picture files. I use it before editing in Gimp, but if you have Photoshop, it's not necessary.
"Dark Table" is an acceptable free light room alternative if you have the patience. It's pretty slow though.
Also, Ninite pro tip:
Do not delete the Ninite exe. If you want to update all your apps later at once, just double click on the. exe again and Ninite will download & update all the installed apps and skip those that don't have any updates.
