There are a bunch of free tools for Windows XP that many people don’t know about called Microsoft PowerToys. These tools come from the original programmers of Windows XP who made them while working on Windows and other software programs. For one reason or another the utilities were not included with Windows retail, but they are fully functional and fit right in with the OS. The only thing you should be aware of when using PowerToys is that they’re not officially a part of Windows and so are not supported by Microsoft. However, if you feel comfortable messing with the tools knowing this, then you should definitely go get them right away!
