Hi Ross,
I've recently bumped into a bunch of great app that can help boost up your quest to live better with Windows, esp. Windows 10
- powertoy: give you a few tools in 1 app
+ fancyzone: predefined screen area for snapping
+ run: a search tool similar to Spotlight in MacOS
+ shortcut guide: no need to remember, just need to hold Win key for a moment, help you in shortcut hell
+ power rename: bulk rename
- files: a Windows app from MS Store, work dual pane, tabbed instance, exclusive to Windows 10 of course
- winDynamicDesktop: change desktop background with day/night effect
- startEverywhere: anywhere Start menu, similar to liteStep, less first-time setup
- taskbarGroup: taskbar shortcut grouping, similar to liteStep, a bit tedious setup for me
I saw your video when it was out and you've got me into the quest since. I am still working on the corner-click app start, maybe edge-click app start (it should give us 8 favorite apps in total)

A question about the system tray icon: how do you hide it away? Is it with liteStep or nexusDock?
I saw the Ultimate option from nexusDock for $20 or something but don't know if we have alternatives.
Personally I want to know background processes, but when I get 16-20 icons, it becomes overwhelming and I cannot decide if I can live without them. It would be nice to hide/open it like yours.
