...so, no Wayland issues? Java dependency isn't mentioned anywhere
I'm a paid user of ConnectWise Access and luckily I predominantly support Windows PCs and Servers, as the ConnectWise Linux agent is less than ideal.

@Obsolesce said in Generating a list of Software to Reinstall on Windows 10:

I usually just copy/paste a Chocolatey install command that does it all at once. Everything else is on separate media that requires no install. Example, copy over games, import them in... such as into Steam.

I've been using the powershell script from alimbada's github repo

This has been a huge issue for me, requiring additional complexity and overhead of a domain for reliably (and simply) enabling / using the "nice" features of Hyper-V.

@Emad-R I think there's subtle differences, especially relating to seamless integration with particular distros. This might be down to the differences / approaches @scottalanmiller mentioned between the distros (and if the developers have a particular distro persuasion one way or the other - despite aiming to be agnostic)

I stumbled across Alexander Larrson's blog, interesting reading, even a Flatpak on WSL post!

I just hope that maybe, given these are fresh initiatives in a time of ever-increasing current security and privacy concerns, we're going to benefit from a better way of doing things?

Damn, that was a challenge typing that on a phone.

Haha! You did well

I'd seen the article on the inclusion of select 3rd party repos with Workstation, this piqued my interest on revisiting Fedora. ScreenConnect was my drama though, hence Cinnamon. I've been doing digging on what these Repo changes actually are and how to enact on Cinnamon (given no Gnome and if that mattered) .

I've just been looking at a posting on the Fedora Forums talking about it . Seems that there's differences from what you get enabling through Workstation (and Gnome Software) and using sudo dnf install fedora-workstation-repositories on other Spins.

I'm tentatively moving into my replacement daily driver - a Fedora Cinnamon Spin flavoured PC. ScreenConnect was problematic until I found @JaredBusch 's post "How to run JNLP files on Fedora Cinnamon with Firefox"

Any love for Flatpak or are most sticking with the native DNF + repos?

I tried them but ended using snaps, wanted to install slack and had some issues under LXqt only snap behaved well.

Also this COPR addons are interesting:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/

I do not understand COPR. Most people that can build anrpm will just do so and host it. I mean I don't browse the repo list looking for software to install. I hear about it here or elsewhere and then go to the vendor website and follow their install guide.

If said vendor is going to make a rpm, they can just host it themselves and tell people to dnf install https://some.url

Then they can look at getting in to the Fedora repos directly.
Or if there are some non-free sub components, they can get in the RPM Fusion repos.

It sounds like it does all the hard work into building your packages and repo.

I remember needed to used copr to install restic. Now you can install it directly from Fedora repo.

Is it for Extra-Bleeding-Edge apps (not yet / not likely to ever be in the Fedora Repos)??
The COPR Project page also mentions:

"NOTE: Copr is not yet officially supported by Fedora Infrastructure."

I get the feeling focus will move towards distro independent package installation solutions. Until then I think I'll stick with DNF, RPM Fusion and maybe selective Flatpak use.

@Emad-R COPR feels a bit like attempts to emulate Ubuntu's use of 3rd party repos? I've seen some interesting projects mentioned in Fedora Magazine

Thanks for the heads-up @JaredBusch , I'll watch that space. I do appreciate the input from everyone actually using and testing this stuff.

@aaronstuder - have you got anything to report back on the application in use?

@aaronstuder I've been looking at this, more on the Windows Server backup angle though. I'd like to find options for agent based backups (entertaining KVM hosts, in place of Hyper-V, primarily running Windows guests). Same query however, I'm looking for peoples experiences.

As a side note - they have a remote assistant that I'm trialing (always cautious of building a dependency on products that don't have a $ tag "yet").

https://www.cloudberrylab.com/remote-assistant.aspx

It's actually been surprisingly good. My needs might be simpler than some however.

Have you looked at Restic?

Looking at the documentation now. Is this something you're using?
