The WinSG utility is actually cool, because it can be used like a
normal Windows utility, and brings support for using multiple groups
to native Windows.
Just a couple of ideas:
- Native Windows doesn't have an easy way to list group memberships
for the current user, so a WinSG -l to list available groups would be
good
- WinSG should be installed in C:\Windows\system32\ alongside cmd.exe
- PowerShell plugin would be cool
- Explorer Plugin to switch groups
- Native Windows utilities use /? for help, not --help
