Where to find free computer repair tools

There are a variety of tools needed to keep your computer running smoothly or to fix it, should something go wrong, and fortunately, many of these are free. This is a guide on the best places to find them.

Cnet

Cnet.com is probably the single best place to go for free computer repair tools. There are thousands of them available to download directly from their website and you can filter by dozens of different categories, as well as by the most popular or the most recently added. Then, you can sort the results by name, editors rating, user rating or several other variables. Moreover, if you already know exactly what you’re after, you can just do a search for the specific piece of software. Hence, whether you're after spyware tools, PC recovery software, or almost any other utility, Cnet will have it. In addition to having many different tools available, Cnet also reviews much of the software that it hosts, giving it a rating out of five and a detailed and informed commentary on what it offers. It also allows users to leave reviews and ratings of software, so it’s easy to get a good idea of whether a piece of software is any good, whether there’s any better, and what if any problems to watch out for. All downloads on Cnet are also guaranteed to be virus and spyware free.

Brothersoft

Brothersoft.com is another popular software download site, and like Cnet, it has thousands of different tools and utilities available which can be sorted by category. However, it has less categories than Cnet, a more cluttered interface, and doesn’t offer professional reviews, although it does allow users to leave reviews.

FileHippo

Filehippo.com is yet another dedicated software download site, and is less cluttered than Brothersoft. It allows users to leave comments on software, but doesn’t have a ratings system or professional reviews. It isn’t as good as Cnet, but if you can’t find what you want on Cnet, then you may find it here.

Google

Never underestimate the power of a simple Google search, so if you know roughly what you’re after, try doing a search for it and see what comes up. Always be careful about where you download it from though.
