It's hard to tell with that blurry picture what collection they are from.

But from the bold text: It seems to be a software collection bundle, mostly programmes but also some games?

The important small text is just a blurry mess to be able to tell where it's from.

It's from a German "high-end" shovelware collection. I'd guess TopWare GOLD or something like that

What? No. Jeez, just put the titles through google translate. They're shovelware. They are probably:

1: Used car buying guide (or something) from the ADAC (German Automobile club)
2: Driver's License training and some shady program to "optimize your winnings" in the national lottery
3: Motorcycle special (probably tests, reviews, etc.), also from the ADAC
4: The Human in 3D
5: Chess training program
6: Learning business English
7: Homepage construction kit
8: Various dictionaries and encyclopedias
9: 3D screensaver construction kit and a few thousand fonts
10: Various other shovelware that I'm to lazy to decipher
