Simple Word Counter

Simple Word Counter is a standard tool capable of counting all words and characters from text, along with the occurrences of each word. It comes packed with a light set of options that even less experienced users can figure out quickly.

This type of software comes in handy for writers and content editors who need to steadily monitor the number of all written words. It's also practical for SEO-related matters, as it can reveal a possible abundance of the same words or expressions.

To get this program up and running, you just have to download and install it with one click after visiting the Microsoft Store. The main window shows black text on a white background, and it includes a large box for typing or pasting text.

The words and characters can be counted by clicking on the "Show result" button. You can view the number of occurrences for each word, which are auto-sorted in alphabetical order.

Unfortunately, Simple Word Counter doesn't have richer options or any customization properties. It would've been practical if it gave you the possibility to exclude common words, such as definite and indefinite articles, highlight all occurrences of a word in the text when clicking its entry in the list, as well as to export the list to file for closer inspection.

The software utility didn't put stress the computer's performance in our testing, running on a low amount of CPU and RAM. It didn't hang, crash or indicate errors.

Although it doesn't have a more comprehensive set of features, Simple Word Counter offers a straightforward solution for finding out the amount of all words and characters in a specified text. It can be figured out with ease by all user levels.
