in reply to Perl on Windows 10

I vote for berrybrew. It's extremely similar to Perlbrew, but uses Strawberry Perl for Windows as its Perl instances.

Initial configuration, as well as switching between Perl versions requires administrative privileges, thanks to how Microsoft manages the PATH environment variables.

Using Perl afterwards though doesn't require admin privileges.

    Thanks, Steve.

    I had a look at the doco. This does seem similar to Perlbrew; so hopefully a gentle learning curve. Installation and configuration look pretty straightforward too.

    The new computer will be mine alone. No SysAdmin folks to deal with. I don't envisage a problem with the administrative privileges.
