  • Over Ten Years of Consecutive Script and File Downloads! – THANK YOU

    January 1, 2022

    PowerShell

    Since it is New Years Day 2022, I decided to spend some time figuring out when each script and file was originally released for download, calculate the number of months between the release month and December 2021, and then calculate the average number of downloads per month. I hope Jim Moyle approves of the math work.

    What I found is that the scripts and files have had 124 consecutive months with at least one download. DUDE, that is OVER TEN YEARS OF CONSECUTIVE DOWNLOADS! I don’t know about you, but even this goober considers that an impressive feat. BUT, that feat with not have happened without the support of the community and all the script authors, contributors, and testers since March 2011 when I started working on the very first script, XenApp 5, with Michael B. Smith, James Rankin, and Jarian Gibson.

    Here are the scripts sorted by known release date.
