I haven't seen a BSOD in years.
Is this Windows 10 Pro? If so you can reduce significantly updates via policy. Unless of course, you machine is on a domain. Then you might talk to a domain admin to see if there is a way to reduce them.
Can you install git or msys? You can add utils to the git bin like wget. Customize your own shell commands. -
bahua128013ymingw and putty are the best I've used in Windows, but even the shittiest of linux-native X terminal emulators leave them in the dust.

I can recommend Window Terminal and ConEmu. Additionally I use scoop to get at least some form of package management in. It's still not perfect but it has become tolerable.

I'm forced by my job to use this fucking unusable piece of horse shit also know as a Windows operating system.
And it's not only that I have experienced every fucking corner case bug that is possible to occur in our universe.
Not only that that for last 2 years I seen more blue screen than blue sky.
Not only that forced updates fucked my schedules so many times that now I'm really *afraid* to turn off my computer off because I have zero guarantee that I will be able to restart it in a reasonable amount of time.
No, neither of those broke me.
The thing that kills me everyday is, piece by piece ...
