This is now my major gripe with windows with tool versioning (since i admit that IIS is now more than usable, unlike in 2012). The settings are a pain to go through. When i find a powershell command or a regedit/cmd action that can avoid me the pain, i take it (and i'm always bummed that those are often the last proposed options).
Also, i think spotlight in mac is way better than Search, and i dislike that it is Win+S instead of Win+Space. I also think that the default itl layout is a smidge better for dev on Mac, but at this point it's too late.
Also to be fair as i mostly use linux: search is way worse and the default are even shittier than windows, but since i can import "my" defaults in 45s, basically the time to type `sudo apt install git make; git clone XXXXXXX/my_default.git; cd my_default; make && sudo make install && reboot`, i'm not too cross about it.
- noveltyaccount 4y agoTry MS PowerToys, enable Everywhere search in the Run utility. Win+space will be nearly as good as Spotlight. Edit: I think this is now called Windows Search or File Search. Sorry been a while since I've used windows full time. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/run https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/run
