For those who use Core installs, what are your pain points?
Hi malxau. I am fully aware of your tools. Actually I am using yori in both my personal and work laptops. However, I am a fan of PowerShell, while my colleagues are not. I tried to use nano for Windows as a CLI text editor, yet I got used to micro. But I agree. It has been more than 5 years since the initial Core version was released and still the tooling is poor. An admin cannot just ssh into a windows server and do the work when it is required. Yes, RSAT is great. But for a Linux shop who has limited use of Windows, things get hard. And Windows Admin Center is not that good yet.

Why does part of the Windows 98 Setup program look older than the rest?
Ask and ye shall receive: https://github.com/Microsoft/winfile
File Manager, or winfile.exe, was the predecessor to Explorer's file management aspects. You can use it on Windows 10 and 11 (and all the others) if you want to.
Program Manager, or progman.exe, was the predecessor shell to Explorer. It was included with Windows through Windows XP SP1 before finally being stubbed in SP2. You can probably grab the binary from XP SP1 and run it in newer Windows versions, though.

RIP, WordPad
> Plenty of open source apps are abandoned. The maintainers get tired, too busy, or whatever.
Other people can pick up the baton. For example my window manager of choice is Window Maker which was abandoned for literally years (fortunately since the underlying tech doesn't change every other month, it still kept working) before someone else it picked it up and nowadays there are a few developers working on it.
> If it was open source, the odds are no one would care to take over maintenance (though they could) since it’s basically redundant at this point.
When Microsoft opensourced winfile[0] (the file manager from Win3.x/NT 3.x) some developers did flock to it (i personally even added a small feature to allow for multiple file masks which was merged), so i'm pretty sure the same would happen for an opensourced wordpad.

There's always winfile lol. I wish they'd drop the 95 era file explorer source. That was the best one imo.
