Ninite.com - Installing Multiple Apps Simultaneously

The most heinous aspect of upgrading to a new OS is that you have to install everything from scratch again. That is so unpalatable that I am surprised there are not a hundred applications like Ninite already available. To put it in simple words, it is a kind of wizard that will let you choose which apps you want to install from a list, and then sit back and stretch while the installation process goes into autopilot.

Some of the apps and tools you can install using Ninite include web browsers, messaging tools, media players and antivirus software. The full list is far, far more comprehensive. The site is worth a visit if only to see it.

Everything is installed with default settings, and Ninite is wholly free for personal users. Businesses can go for one of the paid plans.

Keeping with the overall spirit of the service, Ninite is so accessible that you don’t even have to install it – it all runs on your browser. If you have Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7 you will be capable of benefiting from it.

“Ninite runs on Windows XP/Vista/7 and works in the background 100% hands-free. We install apps with default settings and say "no" to browser toolbars and other junk. All we do is install the latest versions of the apps you choose. Not even Ninite is installed.”

The process of upgrading manually is enervating. This makes it slightly more endurable.

Can you set the language in which the apps will be installed? Or are they installed in English by default?
