I use this for video creation, and streaming on YouTube and Twitch.
Requires a hell of a lot of fiddling, and is missing some incredibly basic things.

Yet another Chrome derivative, but Microsoft took it seriously and made improvements.

A way to run Linux commandline software from a specialized console, similar to how a command prompt runs DOS or PowerShell.
It works well, but it’s imperfect.

A tactics game so good it’s worth buying a PlayStation 2 for. It got released on Steam so it’s a game so good it’s worth buying a PC for. :)
I used to use a macro with my Mayflash PS2 Controller Programmable Convertor and now use AutoHotkey.

A beautified text editor with the widgets around the edges removed (“distraction-free”).
I started using it because I couldn’t trivially get Geany spell checking working. Once I did get it working I stopped.
Although I’ve used this on Linux a bit, it merely idles in my Windows kit.

A host of features to manage processes, such as changing CPU priority. It has lots of automated magic for system happiness. I use it for its control of the CPU’s power profile, making this the equivalent of Linux‘s cpufrequtils.
Highly recommended.
