5 more must-have Windows 11 apps — this time from Reddit and our readers
Last month, I shared six apps I install immediately after a clean install of Windows 11 or when setting up a PC. Each of those apps enhances an experience on Windows 11 or replaces a Microsoft tool. In the case of PowerToys, it’s a Microsoft tool that replaces other Microsoft tools.
What I’m working on this week: I’m testing new Windows 11 apps, such as AltTabby to improve my experience at my desk.
Members of the Windows Central community and the Windows Central subreddit shared their favorite apps in the same category, and I’m gathering them all together here. I’ve also added AltTabby as a bonus pick and Blip, which Reddit helped me find as an AirDrop alternative for Windows.
I loved reading through all your app suggestions after my last piece, and I’d be thrilled to keep this series going. If you have even more must-have Windows 11 apps, please let me know!
