Utility software
It is often referred to as utility, is a system software designed to help analyze,
configure, optimize, or maintain a computer and enhance its performance. It is a
program that performs a specific task, which is usually related to managing the system
resources. Utilities are sometimes also installed as memory-resident programs.
4 types of utility software:
• System Utilities: it is a software application that helps optimized and maintain a
computer just like an anti-virus, memory testers, package managers, network
utilities, and registry cleaner.
• File Management Utilities: utilities are used in managing and securing back up
files. The examples are Archivers, backup software, data compression utilities, and
file managers.
• Storage Device Management Utilities: All the disk related software utilities fall
into this type of utility. They can be disk checkers, disk partition editors, disk
formatters, disk space analyzers and so on.

type, for example, data generators, hex editors, HTML checkers, and merge

Device Driver - a computer program that operates or controls a particular type of device
attached to a computer. Typical devices are keyboards, printers, scanners, digital cameras,
and external storage devices; each of these needs a driver to work correctly.
Examples: Driver Booster, Snappy Driver Installer, Driver Pack Solution, Driver Cloud
Portable application Software – characterized as standalone, it is designed to run on a
computer without installing it. That runs from a removable storage device, such as a USB flash
drive. It does not need to be installed on a computer to run and does not store data on the
host system.
