About

KillerShell puts a file browser, a PowerShell or CMD terminal, a text editor and an admin toolkit in one window, on one tab strip and one set of keys. Search any folder by filename wildcard or by file content, streamed live with no index to build. Processes, services, performance and the registry are one key away. Runs portable or installs for you or every user - no runtime, no agent, no account. Open source under GPLv3.

Security

No known CVEs for KillerShell.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
