Install Multiple Programs at once with Ninite

The one thing I hate when re-installing windows on my computer is the part after which involves sitting there re-installing all the software I use. It simply bores the hell out of me.

My job has been made allot easier with the help of Ninite which allows you to install your favourite programs all at once with just a few click and at no extra cost to you. It works very well at what it does too.

To install your programs you simply visit the Ninite website and select the software you want to install and then click “Get Installer” before you know it all your favourite programs will be installed.

Ninite Features:

• Ninite installs software fast with default settings and says “no” to browser toolbars and other junk.
• Ninite checks your PC’s language and 64-bit support to install the latest, best version of each program.
• Ninite runs on Windows XP/Vista/7 and works in the background unattended and 100% hands-free.
• All Ninite does is automatically download and install the apps you select. Not even Ninite is installed.
