gsudo on Github

gsudo is a sudo equivalent for Windows, with a similar user-experience as the original Unix/Linux sudo. Allows you to run a command (or re-launch your current shell) with elevated permissions, in the current console window or a new one.

Ente Auth (synchronizing OTP app, free, OSS)

Submitted by a.borque on December 13, 2024 - 5:06pm

Ente Auth is a free open source program for storing 2FA-OTP-tokens E2EE in a cloud and synchronizing them between various devices to generate codes there. Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android and iOS are supported. [1]

There is a ZIP version that requires no installation, but unfortunately it stores its data in the users home directory instead of the program directory, so it is not really portable. [2]
