What’s New
You may have heard people talking about using an application software or an
app. But what exactly does that mean? The pictures below are examples of
applications installed in our desktop, laptop and smartphones.
1. 2. 3.
8
What is It
The computer as a whole does not focus only with the components visible to
our naked eyes. It will not function properly without support or the software itself.
Software and hardware are like bread and butter; without each other the computer
cannot function properly.
Nowadays, the need to use application for daily living is not for luxury rather
it is a vital part of our survival.
9
Making the software accessible to the user, for instance by creating links,
shortcuts or bookmarks.
Configuring components that run automatically, such as daemons or Windows
services.
Performing product activation.
Updating the software versions.
APPLICATION SOFTWARE
There are countless desktop applications out there, and they fall into many
different categories. Some are fuller-more features (like Microsoft Word), while
others may only do one or two things (like gadgets). Below are just a few types
of applications that you might use:
• Word Processors: A word processor allows you to write a letter, design a flyer,
and create many other kinds of documents. The most well-known word
processor is Microsoft Word.
10
Personal Finance: Personal finance software, such as Quicken, allows you
to keep track of your income and expenses, create a budget, and more. Most
personal finance programs can automatically download information
from your bank, so you don't have to manually type in all of your
transactions.
Web Browsers: A web browser is the tool that you use to access the
World Wide Web. Most computers come with a web browser pre-
installed, but you can also download a different one if you prefer.
Examples of browsers include Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google
Chrome, and Safari.
Games: There are many different games that you can play on your
computer. They range from card games such as Solitaire, to action
games like Player Unknown’s Battleground (PUBG). Many action games
require a lot of computing power, so they may not work unless you
have a newer computer.
11
Gadgets: Sometimes called widgets, these are simple applications that
you can place on your desktop (or on the Dashboard if you're using a
Mac). There are many different types of gadgets, and they include
calendars, calculators, maps, news headlines, and more.
(win10widgets n.d.)
B. Web App is an application that is accessed over a network such as the Internet
or an intranet. It runs in the cloud and does not need to be installed on your
computer. These are sometimes called cloud apps.
Online Email Services: Services like Gmail and Yahoo! Mail run within
your browser and can do many of the same things that email programs like
Microsoft Outlook can do. After you sign up for an online email service, you
can begin using it immediately - no installation is required. Instead of being
stored on your computer, your emails are stored in the cloud.
Google Docs: Google Docs is an office suite that runs within your browser.
Much like Microsoft Office, you can use it to create documents,
spreadsheets, presentations, and more. Your documents are stored in the
cloud, which makes it easy to share your documents with other people.
Facebook: Facebook lets you create an online profile and interact with your
friends. Profiles and conversations are constantly evolving, so Facebook
uses web app technologies throughout the site to keep the information up-
to-date. There are also games and other web apps that you can add to
your Facebook profile.
12
C. Mobile App is a software application designed to run on smartphones,
tablet computers and other mobile devices.
Desktop and laptop computers aren't the only devices that can run
apps. You can also download apps for mobile devices like smartphones
and tablet computers, which opens up a lot of new possibilities. Here
are a few examples of mobile apps:
(Pinterest 2020)
Messenger instantly reach the people in
your life—for free. Messenger is just like
texting, but you don't have to pay for every
message (it works with your data plan).
Not just for Facebook friends: Message
people in your phone book and just enter a
(Facebook 2020)
phone number to add a new contact.
Instagram is a simple way to capture and
share the world’s moments. Follow your
friends and family to see what they’re up to,
and discover accounts from all over the
(Wikimedia Commons 2020) world that are sharing things you love.

c) Trial ware is also a type of proprietary software which is provided to users for
a certain limited trial basis and pursuant to a license which restricts any
commercial benefit, use or exploitation of the software. This application usually
offers 30 days trial or more.
TYPES OF INSTALLER
PURPOSE OF INSTALLATION
Before the installation we need to identify first the objective of its execution. You need
a certain app for a certain purpose. You must identify if you really need that app or
not.
Example:
You are graphics designer for a clothing product, and you installed Adobe Illustrator
because you need to create a vector art of a certain clothing line for your new project.
Creating a vector art is the purpose why you installed Adobe Illustrator.
14
2. Via USB storage devices (e.g., flash disks, external HDD)
This installation is most recommended compared to other ways of preparing an
installer app. It is more portable and manageable due to portability of its
execution.
3. Via installation disc
It is the traditional way of installation of application, it requires ODD in every
installation. Software are burned in an optical disc.
4. Via intranet or LAN network
This method requires LAN connection in conducting installation. Via intranet
installation made faster and more efficient. It enables you to deploy multiple
installation during the process.
