Chocolatey, a command line driven package installer for Windows that works like apt-get for Linux. Replaces thousands of bloated installers with simple commands. My first step with an updated Windows install is to install Chocolatey, open command prompt, and do something like
choco install firefox notepadplusplus gimp zoom windirstat winrar
to install them all silently.I also use it to auto update my software every day so i don't have to deal with each application's "There is an update available" prompt on startup.
