Introduction

Windows 10, according to [ Wikipedia] “is a personal computer operating system developed and released by Microsoft as part of the Windows NT family of operating systems. It was released on July 29, 2015 [..]”

The purpose of this page is to write down a few configuration tricks, as well as "essentials".


Utilities

Things that I use frequently:

  • 7Zip, one of the best (un)archiving programs
  • Greeshot - A good free program to take and annotate Screen captures]
  • Emacs (forever), a programming editor for experts
  • winscp, scp/ftp program (to transfer from/to servers)
  • Putty, ssh (remote terminal to manage servers)
  • Thunderbird, if you believe that your email only belongs to you.

Writing, Graphics, Design

  • Inkscape, a good but complicated vector drawing program.
  • LibreOffice, a free office clone. I like the Draw program.
