I was fed up with having to keep things like npm, NodeJS and git up to date manually; so I created a little script that keeps things up to date automatically (configurable on a per-app basis) via WinGet.

I know there are already things out there… but they looked like a pain to install, and this is simple enough that I actually understand what it’s doing XD

At this point, things like O&O ShutUp10++ and how Microsoft have left a ton of overrides for their horrible advertising/tracking/ai crap in for businesses to use in large scale deployments means you can actually get a really decent experience in Windows 11… It's just not accessible to most people.

I recently installed Everything Search and, Command Palette plugin someone made for it, and this little gem to fix my last remaining gripe with it: the lack of a good search feature.
