Similarly, when I decide to change some aspect of my personal environment, perhaps using new software or a different configuration, the changes are very easy to replicate on all my linux machines, instantly.
Yes, it would be very convenient if these customisations could be made with a script file in Windows. They probably can be using a file to directly edit the registry, but it's inconvenient to do.
