A while back someone asked me to do a freeware guide for Windows 10 like I have for other Windows operating systems. My heart wasn’t in it. While there is excellent free software out there, in many cases you get what you pay for. I’m tired of talking about second best software I don’t use. So below is a list of the software I have installed on at least one of the 8 PC’s I have scattered across my house.

Chrome for Android updated too. The Chrome Android team can’t be bothered with release notes or info so we get, “You can see a full list of the changes in the Git log.“.
Check it out, it’s a real page turner that is full of such enlightening info as,
“Flush the output file after writing if it was mapped into memory.
This avoids an interesting bug in Windows as per the code comment.”
or
“Move unmapping of large pages out of the spin-lock in PartitionAlloc
Instead of unmapping directly, Free() returns DeferredUnmap that needs
to be run after releasing the lock.”
Keep working that nerd stereotype boys, I’m sure those Silicon Valley chicks dig it.
