# Operating Systems
## Windows
### Package Managers
- Chocolatey
- requires Administrator permissions
- Winget
- comes with Windows
- (it doesn't work half of the time for me)
### Mounting ISO, CUE images
Windows versions 8 and above natively support mounting ISOs. However CUE images are not supported.
WinCDEmu is a lightweight, open-source disc emulator that supports mounting CUE, NRG, IMG, ISO, etc. images.

- [Source (GitHub)](https://github.com/sysprogs/WinCDEmu)
- [Portable Version](https://wincdemu.sysprogs.org/portable/)
### Master Control Panel / God Mode
(Misnomer; you probably won't use this either)
Shows a list of all the available settings on Windows in a single view.
Open it by exceuting the following command or saving it as a shortcut: `explorer.exe shell:::{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}`
## MacOS
### Package Manager
- [HomeBrew](https://brew.sh)
- package manager everyone uses but it is noticeably slow
### Video Players
- IINA
- video player based on mpv with native macOS UI
- mpv
- mpv doesn't have a brew cask for Apple silicon; stolen-mpv exists but it is x86 only
- mpv brew formula is the cli tool which works pretty well but it is not as nice as packaged applications
