My most time saving programs didn't change in several years:

Slickrun, floating command line for Windows https://bayden.com/slickrun/

Autohotkey - shortcuts, text expander and scripting for everything https://www.autohotkey.com/

Total Commander, still the best file manager on Windows https://www.ghisler.com/

CyberChef - The "Cyber Swiss Army Knife" - single file web app for all kinds of conversions, encryption, encoding, compression and data analysis https://gchq.github.io/CyberChef/

Adminer - lighweigt database manager https://www.adminer.org/
