No need to open a web browser to install another one on Windows 10 and 11.

All one has to do is open a terminal, type winget install Mozilla.Firefox and hit Enter. ;)

Pro tip: To update all software on a Windows computer you can type winget upgrade --all and hit Enter (especially useful for computers from family or friends with LibreOffice or Java versions from the stone age …).

This is why I’ll never use Windows, it’s just too complicated for the average person. Imagine having to enter commands into the command line just to upgrade your computer, that’s way beyond most people.

I’d rather just stick with Mint with its GUI and automatic updates 😉
