Best-of lists
The Windows section of TopDown APK currently lists 273 programs. All of them sit in Tier B, which means we do not host the installer ourselves. Each page links to the vendor's official file instead.
Entries cover browsers such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Brave, code tools such as Notepad++ and Microsoft Visual Studio Code, and media software such as VLC media player, OBS Studio and Audacity. Security and emulation tools like Malwarebytes and BlueStacks are included as well.
Every listing shows the developer, current version, last update date, file size where known, price and license. Chrome is listed at version 157.0.8103.39 and 156.5 MB, for example, while Notepad++ is only 6.6 MB. The catalog has no Android entries in this section, and no Tier A or Tier C items.
Because downloads come from the vendor, the file you receive is the one the publisher distributes. Check the version and license on each page before you install.
