One of the things that most of you (including me) really hate to do after a clean Windows installation is installing dozens of software applications in your PC. It’s way too time consuming and tedious. Even searching and downloading the latest versions of your favourite applications can waste you a lot of time.
Ninite is a great web service that allows you to create a customized installer for multiple freeware applications. By creating just a single installer, you can install dozens of your favourite applications in one go.
To create the installer, first you need to pick the applications that you want to include in your installer from Ninite main site. You can choose from 60 choices of software from categories like web browsers, messaging tool, media players, photo editors and more. All the applications are of latest versions.
Once done with your selection, hit the “Get Installer” button to download the installer. After download, simply run the installer. The installer will display all your selected applications on the main window. From here, you can sit back and relax and lets Ninite handles the installation process.
All the applications will be automatically downloaded and installed to their default directories on your system. Ninite installs apps with default settings and disable any toolbar installation. Cool!
Ninite runs on Windows XP, Vista and 7. Alternatively, you can try Smart Installer Pack.
