1. Backup utilities archive files from the hard disk to tapes, flash drives, or other storage devices.
2. File defragmentation utilities convert fragmented files (i.e., files not stored contiguously) on the hard disk into contiguous files that will load and be manipulated more rapidly.
3. Disk and data recovery utilities allow the recovery of damaged or erased data from hard disks and flash drives.
4. Data compression utilities compress data by substituting a short code for frequently repeated patterns of data, much like the machine shorthand used by court reporters, allowing more data to be stored on a disk.
5. File conversion utilities translate files from one format to another so that they can be used by applications other than those used to create it.
6. Antivirus utilities scan files for viruses and remove or quarantine any virus found.
7. Device drivers allow adding new hardware to a computer system, such as game controllers, printers, scanners, and so on, to function with the computer's operating system.
8. Spam blockers monitor users' incoming e-mail messages and filter or block unwanted messages from arriving.
9. Spyware detection and removal utilities scan the computer for spyware and disable or remove any spyware found.
