The term app is merely an abbreviation of the word application. There are Windows applications. It's a generic term. Apple does not have a copywrite on the term app.
Hey, thanks for this useful article! Several tools in there will be useful to me, so I appreciate it. Anyone had any success using Kaspersky Rescue? I am an avid Kaspersky IS user and very satisfied customer, so I am delighted to try it. Just in time for a client system I need to rescue from some viruses...This will be interesting.
I've always used siw as a system analysis tool. It offers a ton of Windows related information. However, speccy appears to offer a few features that are not available with the free version of siw.
Either way, when using diagnostic tools, I prefer them self-executable (aka portable) for thumb drive purposes. Thankfully, speccy offers such a version (http://www.piriform.com/speccy/download/portable).
