I agree. [Everything](https://www.voidtools.com/) is always a definite install after imaging. It's something that should have been built into Windows. I've never found the need for any

As is typical with Microsoft, their search/find tools work poorly, can hog resources, and are difficult to use. "Everything Indexer" is easy to use, has a small footprint, and has almost no effect on my resources. Search queries show you results as you type, and you can create complex search terms with logical operators, as opposed to the…

Pritaeas answered the question: normal WEB

settings forbids launching executables on a client machine. The only legal workaround is to create windows service (daemon in Linux environment), install it on client machine and listen for some commands coming from server over WEB sockets.

I see pritaeas has answered so I'll move to the next stage of the discussion which is to ask what you need in your web site. For example there is an "online notepad" which does some basic notepad work. And there are many screensavers that run from a webpage with an example at whitescreen.online . You can get there.

Let me expand on what rproffitt said, by explaining why. If a webpage could run a program installed on another computer, the entire world wide web would be hacked into tiny pieces and cease to exist. No one would ever use the web, it would be so totally insecure. So web pages are prohibited from running programs on your computer. They can …

>No, Javascript cannot run/start executables on the client machine. Technically correct but there are ways around it. For example, save a file in a special folder on the target computer, which has a folder watch on that folder. The watching task could then trigger a local task.
