winstall VS croc

https://winstall.app. There's also winget.run, but it's no longer updated.

What I'm thinking now is you may just want to solve this with the nuclear option like this guy did - https://old.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/f4tw3k/cannot_open_any_microsoft_store_apps_windows/ A pain in the ass, but most 3rd-party applications can export settings, and a program like Patch My PC or winstall can reinstall software quickly. https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/1950-clean-install-windows-10-a.html

As a happy Winget user: https://winstall.app/

Here's a front end someone made to easily browse it: https://winstall.app/

You can replicate that experience with winstall. It gives you the script file when you finish selecting the desired packages, so you can install all the desired apps on any Windows machines on one go without installing additional software.

you have that usb installer for windows you just made. there's still some room on it. make a new folder there and stuff your initial batch of application installers in it, or at least something like ninite or patchmypc or a script made from winstall.app

Winstall

This very hn entries is bust contradicting your statement.

Also what about syncthing[1] (for recurrent/permanent sync) and croc[2] (for one time copies) ?

I have used both for a number of years already.

Check out croc, I've been using it for years, and it works pretty great too!

I'm trying to find very specific software.I need CLI(!!!) tool like Croc to share files using P2P, but it's very inconvenient to ask people to install same software as me(Croc in this case). Instead i want to get direct download URL, so anyone can download it just by using browser.
