Comment on Mozilla ending support for Windows 7parent

Comments

Long live the PowerShell. Yes, old control panel was much more manageable. Most of the important settings have been hidden from the end-user these days.

I am normally a Linux or MacOS user exclusively, but recently I reinstalled Windows 11 on my somewhat recently purchased Lenovo Yoga 7i. I tried to get as far as I could getting as much of my configuration codified with PowerShell in a git repo[0].

I got really far with it and the end result was super nice, I thought! But a lot of the stuff I wanted was very deeply buried.

Also, the defaults that Microsoft assaults Windows users with are insane! I can't believe what Microsoft gets away with.
