I am not a big fan of Windows, but this system is mandatory in the company that I work for. I have no admin rights, there's a lot of surveillance ( as if using Microsoft wasn't enought ) and rules. There's no WSL available for me, CMD and Powershell ( not so powerfull , neither so shell ) are crap and ssh inside windows console is quite weird.

That's why Cygwin is my weapon of choice : everything is userland, no admin required.

I use cygwin + x11 + urxvt + xterm + apt-cyg to keep a minimum of happiness inside that horrendous environment.
