    I'm a casual windows user. Not a coder, programmer etc. I like to tinker and tweak things only to the extent of making my low-end laptop efficient and making my workflow productive (i.e., not much).

    I think i have some aptitude to get used to the command line. I used linux for fun some time ago, and got used to the Terminal basics - more because that's how things get done there, but i liked it.

    Is general windows 10 usage better if you make an effort know the command line/ powershell? Do you have a hugely better chance of rescuing your pc from trouble if you know basic command line stuff? Is there a whole load of stuff in there that's not in the gui?

    GPU-Z what command line parameter ?

    Suggestion: /? (-?) and /help (-help) command-line arguments to show a list of all possible arguments in a small window. *Smile How useful is it to know the command line and/or powershell, for a user who doesn't depend... :)

    Capture network usage from command line or powershell?


    I know you can see what applications are using how much data in a given period of time by going to Start -> Settings -> Network & Internet -> Data Usage, then clicking the Usage Details option to bring up a list.

    Does anyone know if there's a way to output this list at the command line or from powershell?
