« Outlook 2003 move PST file | Axis2: Duplicate global type » |
Software for fresh Windows computer
Programs I install on a new Windows machine:
- Chrome with:
- Tamper monkey
- uBlock origin
- Typio form recovery
- I don’t care about cookies
- 7-Zip
- VIM
- Putty
- LastPass
- Thunderbird
- VLC
- Signal
- Syncovery
Set-up steps I take:
- Clean up taskbar (just right-click it)
- Fix touchpad settings
- Change power options (esp. power button and lid options)
- Fix Windows Explorer options (e.g. stop hiding file extensions)
- Recover backup with Syncovery
- Restore Putty registry keys
- Right-click Desktop > View > Show Desktop Icons
- Create a new Windows theme
- Use Disk Management to teach Windows my preferred drive letters
- Turn off accessibility shortcuts
- Add archive PST to Outlook data files, and confirm archive configuration
- Go through the Outlook options and change my settings. Turn off all Add-Ins except MS Exchange (reference)
- Set default apps
- Turn off Windows Spotlight
- Go to Display settings and turn off animations (etc.)
