Pretty good list. A few things I noticed though. The author seems to refer to any software that is commercial, as shareware. That is not accurate. Also, Synergy is not free anymore. I believe there is a recent free fork-- Barrier I believe? https://github.com/debauchee/barrier https://github.com/debauchee/barrier I like the author's idea about using SecureCRT and ssh localhost. There are so many good Windows terminal options available now though with WSL being so prominent, that this option is certainly not something you should need to have to do (eg, Alacritty etc makes for a beautiful Powershell experience) Total Commander is certainly amazing, and believe stays fully functional forever after an initial startup nag, much like WinRAR. Speaking of WinRAR, I still use it, partly for nostalgia sake, and partly because it has a feature that 7zip does not have-- and that is to select a bunch of archives, and to extract each one and then delete the archive. This is very handy if you don't have a lot of extra drive space past what the archives are using (haven't found a way to make 7z do this even via CLI options; although I'm sure you could script it with power/cmd shell script, but 7z does not appear to have a builtin switch for that exact functionality of deleting the archive after extraction). Also, perhaps this original list is (relatively) old, even though it appears to have been updated 3 weeks ago. That doesn't diminish any of the tools, however certain items may be deprecated, such as HijackThis, which appears to have gotten eaten up by Trend Micro. Looks like one can find it at oldversion.com, however, it would be inadvisable to use given the unlikelihood of the database being updated/current.
