Deno in 2023
Windows has a lot of things in this department. https://github.com/microsoft/Windows-Sandbox-Utilities sounds similar to what you describe, but there are also finer-grained APIs: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/secauthz/app...

Ask HN: For those using Stable Diffusion locally, how do you filter fishy repos?
You could use the Windows Sandbox to prevent them from accessing anything sensitive on your computer. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-pro...

Is there a torrent website with no malware?
If you're unsure about a program's security (and you have 10 Pro), run it in Sandbox mode. Otherwise, download VMWare Workstation and create a virtual machine.

LPT: when taking tests requiring a monitoring software on your personal device, download a virtual machine (ex.OracleVM) and set up windows on it.
Windows Sandbox is literally made for this, is lighter, integrated into the OS and free.

Fake "Geek Squad" auto-renewal refund email scam (no "kindly"!!)
He directed me to start a browser, which I did inside Windows Sandbox (a new lightweight container-based VM-ish on Windows). He asked me to go to "9190.org" in the browser, enter the invoice number. That downloads a "ScreenShareClientRefund.exe" which he instructed me to start. At that point I told him "Nice try, scammer! That would have fooled a lot of people." He hung up - no drama.

Trojan when downloading RDR1 from Internet Archive
Windows Sandbox is a feature of Windows 10+. If you use older or can't use it for some reason, get VirtualBox and make a VM without any network access.

Shortcut for rotating canvas by 15° left or right without a mouse
I don't like using my mouse while drawing and I couldn't find how to do this anywhere, but luckily when I was about to give up I achieved it! So, for this you'll need a program called SharpKeys. You can download it here: https://github.com/randyrants/sharpkeys/

Caps Lock Behaviour Disabled in Gnome
Sharpkeys can swap keys, the readme says as much:
> Things that SharpKeys will do:
> ...
> Allow you to swap two keys with each other - e.g. you can swap Left Windows with Left Control and vice versa
I do have a vague recollection of Sharpkeys previously saying that it couldn’t, but that I tried and it worked. Long time since I last used Windows though.

Total Commander
> Total commander isn’t FOSS.
I'm aware of that. There are lots of FOSS equivalents, though. Including, I believe, on Windows. Wikipedia lists 23 of which I think -- haven't checked -- the majority are FOSS.

> Ironically windows 11 can’t do vertical taskbars.
True. Easily fixed with Explorer Patcher, though. Which, ironically, is FOSS.
> And where in windows can you change the system shortcuts?
I don't use it much any more and stopped early this century, so my knowledge here may be out of date.
When I do, I use SharpKeys to put a GUI on editing the relevant registry keys for keyboard remapping.
https://github.com/randyrants/sharpkeys
In the NT 3.x era, it was the properties of every EXE's PIF file. So I set Crtl+Alt+(initial) to open my most used apps. Ctrl+Alt+D for DOS, E for Excel, W for Word, etc.
This still works with limitations under Win9x through to XP, which is when I jumped off the Windows ship.
But mostly it's about learning the many many built-ins.
