More powerful version of the Windows utility

If you want to learn more about the utility, you can just read the documentation already provided by Microsoft.Essentially, GFlagsX offers more or less the same functionality, but it adds a few extra features that were not available before, such as process mitigation options.

Comes with a redesigned GUI and is very easy to deploy

When it comes to the user interface, it is quite similar to the old utility when it comes to its layout, but it certainly looks more up-to-date. Some users may not be happy with the more colorful design, but you can’t argue that the UI is very intuitive.One important thing to note is that the application does not require installation, so you can easily take it with you if you need to work on multiple computers.
