Sometimes you have to setup your Laptop/Notebook fresh and also prepare your developer environment and tools you need. I noticed this again today when I rebooted my machine and spent almost 2 hours installing the tools I need to work.
I have put together a list of commands you can use to prepare your environment using Windows Package Manager (WinGet) for you which gives you a kick start at the next reset and you can continue working directly after 10 minutes.
Prerequisites
Windows 11 (If Windows 10 then install winget via App Installer first)
