Security: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. Yes. Media Player: VLC No, WinAmp is better. Screenshots: NOTHING, it is already Windows 10 Compression: PeaZip (Who needs it? Windows 10 has it.)

Media Player: VLC No, WinAmp is better.

I've been using VLC player for years and even have it on my android devices to play media there as well.I use both VLC and WinAmp.
The skin of Winamp is adjustable and has almost all controls visible, if yu want.
For me, it is easier to edit the playlist in WInamp.

I use VLC mostly for video and WinAmp for a list of MP3 files.

VLC has a bug with the album cover. Once it gets an album cover, it will not change if the next song has an association with a new image. Very annoying. Some MP3 collections have images that go with each song.What software is a must-have is a personal thing, and I find these days I think long and hard about what I really need.
