This is a fairly complete HOWTO for modifying Windows 8.1 so it’s sensible and “oldschool”.
I want to remove all of that fancy new shit and make it look and work more like the earlier versions of Windows, e.g. Windows XP.

The Programmers Solid 3D CAD Modeller
In general, this is a wonderful program. A great editor, and it’s quite easy to use.
Unfortunately, it really is for programmers. While I can muddle through everything, I’m not a programmer so it’s extremely time consuming for me to make anything.

A Free and open source 3d creation suite and video editor.
3d editing: Said to be very difficult to use, and it is. There is an argument that in mastering it one gains a huge set of capabilities with one tool. I was unable to get that far.
Video editing: Defaults are stupid and features are missing. Maybe it’ll be passable in a few years.
