The most necessary software for computers with operating systems: Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 7 Vista XP.
If you bought a new computer or reinstalled the operating system, then on this page of the site you will find all the necessary software and instructions for installing it. I am engaged in the installation of software, made this page for myself and constantly keep it up to date.
Installation sequence (which programs and drivers to install first). It is recommended that you first install drivers on the motherboard, video and audio cards, and then other programs. If you break this sequence, then there will be no problems, but it is better to install the drivers at the beginning.

7-Zip and WinRAR archivers
These archivers work great. You can install all archivers (7-Zip and WinRAR) or select one of them. Personally, I use only WinRAR.
 7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio. 7-Zip is free software with open source. You can use 7-Zip on any computer, including a computer in a commercial organization. You don’t need to register or pay for 7-Zip.
7-Zip works in Windows 10, Windows 8 / 8.1, Windows 7 Vista XP (64-bit / 32-bit). |
 WinRAR is a powerful archive manager. It can backup your data and reduce the size of email attachments, open and unpack RAR, ZIP and other files downloaded from Internet, create new archives in RAR and ZIP file format. This is a licensed program that, after the trial period (40 days) has expired, continues to work and only notifies you of the need to buy a license.

Microsoft .NET Framework
Microsoft .NET Framework – you can install all versions of this software (they complement each other). In new versions of the Windows operating system, this software may already be installed (start the installation and if such a program is already installed, then the Windows operating system will refuse to reinstall it). Without this program, installation and operation of many other programs is impossible (it is enough to install the latest version of NET Framework 4.7).

Video Card Drivers
NVIDIA GeForce Graphics Card Drivers
AMD Radeon Graphics Card Drivers
It is recommended that you use the Windows operating system to download or update video card drivers. This is the safest and most reliable way to download or update drivers. The Windows operating system itself downloads and installs new verified drivers.
How to update the video card driver in the Windows operating system.
Open ‘Device Manager’. To do this, in the Windows search bar, write: ‘Device Manager’. Right-click on the name of the video card and in the tab that opens, click ‘Update Driver’.
In the new tab that opens, click ‘Search automatically for Drivers’. The Windows operating system will find and install the new graphics card driver.
If you need the latest graphics card driver that has not yet been fully tested for compatibility with the Windows operating system, you can download it from the NVIDIA website – https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/geforce/drivers/
Optional GeForce Experience software.
GeForce Experience is a software application developed by NVIDIA that allows users to optimize their gaming experience on a PC equipped with a NVIDIA graphics card. To install GeForce Experience, you can download the software from the NVIDIA website (https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/geforce-experience/). Once the download is complete, open the installer and follow the prompts to install the software.

Once installed, GeForce Experience can automatically optimize game settings for your specific system configuration, as well as provide drivers updates, and record and share gameplay footage. Additionally, it also offers in-game overlay for access to features such as recording and capturing screenshots, and an integrated game library for easy access to all of your games.
