You can’t edit config files on Windows from the terminal?

Not really an expert but PowerShell always seemed kind of more “powerful” and/or complex than bash



Powershell is more equivalent to Python than BASH TBH


These are the instructions for Windows from OP's reddit post: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/discussions/29...

So much more complicated.


It's a one liner in Powershell

New-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome" -Name "ExtensionManifestV2Availability" -Value 2 -PropertyType DWORD -Force


>So much more complicated.

Are you one of those guys[1] who doesn't understand files and folders?

Seriously, the only thing you're exhibiting is your abject ignorance of Windows and possibly computers in general which are not something you should be proud of.

Its not even that. They say its more complicated but it's basically the exact same thing. Registry entry's are arguably the windows equivalent of a Mac os plist.
