我对便携式应用程序(portable apps)有点情有独钟。它们不需要在您的计算机上安装，并且可以在USB记忆棒上运行。这意味着您的计算机可以摆脱从已安装软件中逐渐积累的所有渣滓文件。
但缺点是便携式应用程序仅适用于
Windows计算机。迄今为止，我从未见过任何适用于MacOS或Linux的软件（或者我可能只是在寻找错误的地方）。
以下是一些专门用于维护 Windows 操作系统的便携式应用程序，这些应用程序对我来说非常宝贵。在所有情况下，从下面提供的链接下载便携式应用程序，然后解压缩文件夹，确保保留文件夹结构和文件位置。如果您在应用程序文件夹中移动任何内容，它将无法正常工作。
漂白剂(BleachBit)
在删除计算机上的垃圾文件（临时 Internet 文件、cookie、浏览器历史记录等）时，我一直依赖CCleaner。但随后CCleaner遭遇了重大争议，包括木马恶意软件、数据收集、未经许可安装其他软件等等。
所以现在我使用BleachBit，它也一样好。诚然，它不像CCleaner清理那么多东西，但它完成了我希望它完成的工作，这是主要的事情。除了清理Windows 操作系统(Windows OS)的垃圾之外，您还可以让它删除其他程序不需要的文件，以及覆盖已删除的文件，以及粉碎文件和文件夹。
BleachBit也有过臭名昭著的时刻，当时发现希拉里克林顿(Hillary Clinton) 在 2016 年用它删除了她的电子邮件(used it to delete her emails in 2016)。
任何使用Windows的人都知道，操作系统远非完美。问题随时可能出现，您不会知道原因。这就是为什么像FixWin 10这样的东西在您的(FixWin 10)USB工具包中非常有用。
由我最喜欢的网站之一制作，FixWin 10涵盖了大量潜在的Windows 10问题。但是使用这样的东西时的基本规则是，如果你不知道自己在做什么，就永远不要改变一些东西(never to alter something if you don’t know what you’re doing)。这是蓝屏(Blue Screen)死机(Death)和Windows彻底崩溃的最快方法。为了安全起见，请先进行系统还原(System Restore)，以便在出现问题时回滚任何更改。
如果您的 Windows 机器出现问题，请检查FixWin 10以查看它是否会为您重置该功能。只需单击鼠标，在某些情况下，还需要重新启动系统以查看更改。
Windows的另一个烦恼是，当您从“已安装程序(Installed Programs)”部分卸载某些内容时，它并不总是删除与该程序相关的所有内容。所以实际的程序可能已经消失了，但临时文件和开始菜单条目可能仍然存在，阻塞了工作。
Revo在加强并完成 Windows 应该自己完成的工作方面享有盛誉，即正确卸载内容。结果，卸载程序需要一段时间，但如果正确完成，就会发生这种情况。
当您启动程序的卸载过程时，Revo首先会创建一个系统还原点以在必要时回滚。然后它会卸载程序，寻找相关的临时文件、cookie、开始菜单条目、文件夹等。然后，您可以一次性删除它们。
Revo还提供了广泛的其他工具，例如删除Microsoft Office文档历史记录、删除其他Windows文件（如日志）、安全碎纸机等。
虽然网站上说Zip2Fix只能在
Windows 8上运行，但我在(Windows 8)Windows 10上没有问题。当重要文件被困在损坏的 zip 文件中并且我需要将它们取出时，它在很多情况下拯救了我的隐藏。Zip2Fix进行救援。
显然，如果里面的文件损坏到无法修复，程序就无法修复它们。但是，如果可以从 zip 存档中提取文件，那么Zip2Fix是您尝试将其取出的最佳选择。不再有“狗吃了我的作业”。快速(Quick)、快速、免费。
默认程序编辑器(Default Programs Editor)
您计算机上的每种文件格式都分配有一个默认程序来打开它。所以PDF(PDFs)由Adob(Adobe) e 打开，TXT由Notepad打开，PSD
由Photoshop 打开(Photoshop)。
但是，如果您的默认程序偏好以某种方式被弄乱和改变了怎么办？或者，如果您想轻松更改特定文件格式的默认程序怎么办？然后便携式应用程序默认程序编辑器可以帮助您的生活更轻松。
除了默认程序外，您还可以更改自动播放设置、刷新Windows 文件资源管理器(Windows File Explorer)中的程序图标以及编辑右键单击上下文菜单选项。
想要更多？
在线获取便携式应用程序的最佳位置是Portable Apps、SnapFiles、PortApps和Portable Freeware Collection。显然，请谨慎下载内容，因为您永远不知道每个应用程序的审查程度。
5 Portable Apps You Definitely Want To Have On Your USB Stick
I have a bit of a soft spot for portable apps. They require no installation on your computer and can be run on a USB stick. This means your computer can stay free of all the dross files which gradually accumulates from installed software.
But the downside is that portable apps are only for
Windows computers. To date, I have never seen any for MacOS or Linux (or maybe
I am just looking in the wrong places).
Here are some of the portable apps specifically for maintaining the Windows operating system which have proven invaluable to me. In all cases, download the portable app from the links provided below and then unzip the folder making sure to leave the folder structure and file locations in place. If you move anything inside the app folder, it won’t work.
When it came to deleting crap files on the computer
(temporary internet files, cookies, browser history, and so forth), I always
used to rely on CCleaner. But then CCleaner got hit with major controversies
ranging from trojan malware, data harvesting, installing other software without
permission, and more.
So now I use BleachBit and it is just as good.
Granted, it doesn’t clean as many things as CCleaner but it does the job I want
it to do and that’s the main thing. As well as cleaning Windows OS crud, you
can also get it to delete unneeded files for other programs, as well as
overwrite deleted files, and shred files and folders.
BleachBit has had its moment of infamy as well, when it was discovered that Hillary Clinton used it to delete her emails in 2016.
As anyone who uses Windows well knows, the operating
system is far from perfect. Problems can arise at any time and you would not
know the reason why. That’s why something like FixWin 10 is very useful to have
in your USB toolkit.
Made by one of my favorite websites, FixWin 10 covers a whole multitude of potential Windows 10 issues. But the cardinal rule when using something like this is never to alter something if you don’t know what you’re doing. That is the fastest way to a Blue Screen of Death and total Windows meltdown.To be on the safe side, do a System Restore first so you can roll back any changes if you mess up.
If something is not working right with your Windows
machine, check FixWin 10 to see if it will reset the feature for you. All it
takes is a click of the mouse, and in some cases, a system reboot to see the
changes.
Another annoyance of Windows is that when you
uninstall something from the Installed Programs section, it doesn’t always
delete everything related to the program. So the actual program might be gone,
but temp files and start menu entries might still be there clogging up the
works.
Revo has an excellent reputation for stepping up and
doing the job that Windows should be doing themselves, which is uninstalling
stuff properly. As a result, it takes a while to uninstall a program but that
is what happens when it is done properly.
When you start the uninstallation process for a
program, Revo first makes a system restore point to roll things back if
necessary. Then it uninstalls the program, hunts for associated temp files,
cookies, start menu entries, folders, and more. Then you can delete them in one
go.
Revo also offers a wide range of other tools such as
removing Microsoft Office documents history, deleting other Windows files such
as logs, a secure shredder, and more.
Although the website says Zip2Fix only works up to
Windows 8, I have no problem with it on Windows 10. And it has saved my hide on
many occasions when important files were trapped inside a corrupted zip file
and I needed to get them out. Zip2Fix to the rescue.
Obviously if the files inside are damaged beyond
repair, there is nothing the program can do to un-corrupt them. But if the file
can be extracted from the zip archive, then Zip2Fix is your best bet to try and
get it out. No more “the dog ate my homework”. Quick, fast, and free.
Every file format on your computer is assigned a
default program to open it. So PDFs are opened by Adobe, TXT by Notepad and PSD
by Photoshop.
But what if your default program preferences are
somehow messed up and changed? Or what if you want to easily change the default
program for a particular file format? Then the portable app Default Programs
Editor is here to help make your life easier.
As well as the default programs, you can also change
autoplay settings, refresh the program icons in Windows File Explorer, and edit
the right-click context menu options.

The best places online to get portable apps is Portable Apps, SnapFiles, PortApps, and Portable Freeware Collection. Obviously, be cautious what you download as you never know how vetted each app is.
