Nepali Calendar for Windows - Every Tool, Every Tab.

NepDate Widget is the free Nepali Patro (Nepali calendar) and date converter for Windows, organized into seven tabs. Each one focuses on a single workflow so the UI stays uncluttered. Convert BS dates to AD, calculate loan EMI, convert Preeti to Unicode, check your IP, convert bigha to ropani, generate passwords, and more. Right-clicking the widget anywhere opens a quick-access menu to any tool. RunBox is a separate global launcher - press the configurable hotkey from anywhere in Windows to run a command without opening the widget at all.
