Is Nirsoft a Mossad operation?

lel

ive integrated nircmd.exe into my windows iso, it allows to hide conhost (cmd.exe batches) windows when user clicks custom menus

Mossad has film of Bill Gates and Trump plooking underage prostitutes. They also control Intel.
Google is of course founded by jews (who are often Mossad).
>So why bother with a small website for 20 years?

TLDR; Nirsoft is probably just a hobby project for some bored Mossad agent who's dayjob is to make you crank it to trannyporn.

He has tools that scan the network, or read out registry values to access product keys/Windows keys. These often seem to get flagged for obvious reasons. He has tons of useful utilities for beginners/intermediate users but since its not open source or audited I try to avoid them nowadays.

Or just use Linux instead of this tinkering. Get a job.

If you're required to use Linux for your job you'll will inevitably end up using proprietary enterprise solutions for it anyway. Never take advice from /g/ its full of NEET larpers.

chud, sweetie you need to go back.

>>103238166
examples?
>>
>>103237279
I regularly use stuff like HashMyFiles to mass checksum and verify or compare files, BlueScreenView to see why my PC crashed, USBDeview to see what fucking USB device is making that random disconnect noise, etc. He's just made so many useful little lightweight utilities.

I fucking love freeware software
