I would say chocolatey and/or scoop for all people who are not afraid of using command line tools. They are package managers on Windows, and to be honest, I can't live without them now.
chocolatey has a quite wide range of software, and requires admin privilege since the installation paths are varied
scoop doesn't need admin privilege because it installs software to %AppData% and %LocalAppData% for single user environment, although it provides an option to install them systemwide.
Both of them are using command line to install / uninstall / backup packages, and provides various options of how to do the tasks.
They are basically functioning as package managers on Linux. The first thing after I complete the installation of Windows, is installing chocolatey and scoop, they just make my life a lot easier
