Anyone For A MS Edge Lite Version?
This reddit really grabbed my attention because ever since I uninstalled the chromium edge browser from my windows 11 computers, which I might add that's actually very easy to do by using this application: https://github.com/undergroundwires/privacy.sexy I've been looking for something labeled as a 'lite' version but seemingly I don't think anything exists like that. :-(

Is there an accessible repository of open source software for Windows?
As much as I love Linux, I am forced to dual boot with Windows so I have access to the uni's student licenses (adobe photoshop, harmony toonboom, maya, etc.). I used privacy.sexy to cut off a lot of the bloat from my Windows installation.

System Informer
System Informer is a versatile system management tool designed to seamlessly monitor and analyze system resources, troubleshoot software issues, and identify potential malware threats. Offers system activity overviews, intuitive graphs, real-time statistics, active network connection monitoring, detailed disk access information, intricate stack trace analysis, and much more. evily2k describes it "like process explorer on steroids. Allows me to kill process that task manager would say access denied."

I recently added -allow_third_party_software to my csgo game to use nvidia game filters to make my game look better and ever since i have had this weird icon on the top left of my screen, how do i get rid of it?
(VAC use to prevent you from playing with the below method, however it has since been removed from the support, but you should still use -insecure for the below method) You can also try using process hacker/system informer (github link) it's similar to task manager however right click on csgo.exe click properties and click on the the windows tab. From there you can view which library or process created a window.

FACEIT Anti-cheat - Secure boot requirement update!
This is not a false positive, there are security exploits in Process Hacker that are exploited by some cheats. I would suggest upgrading to the new version which is now called System Informer, where these issues are fixed. https://github.com/winsiderss/systeminformer

Anvir Task manager doubts
I've had it for well over a year and haven't noticed any ill effects. I find it handy for reporting when something has been added to startup or context menu etc, but I've never ran it "full time" as a task manager replacement. (Though for that purpose, I recently came across an app called System Informer that I like - https://systeminformer.sourceforge.io/)
