I've removed the second party antivirus and started loading the basic programs for starters. 00:25:53 What are the first apps that you go to download on a machine, i.e. what can't you live without? 00:31:12 What are the benefits of using Ninite Pro? 00:35:00 When introducing a production computer to a corporate environment, what resources do you point at to ensure that the IT Team doesn't install Bloatware that prevents that computer from functioning optimally? 00:36:43 When installing a new macOS version, is it best to clean install or upgrade install? 00:40:31 For building a Windows 11 Pro image, are there any good must have utilities that can remove some of the annoyances?
