GETTING THINGS DONE · VIDEO DEMO · BY DUSTYWIRE

The entertainment is yours. Hand off some setup.

You picked what you want to use. Now comes finding the apps, starting the installations, waiting for downloads, and opening them to check. That is the part you might happily give someone else.

Setting up a new computer often means doing the same little sequence for each app. Search, choose, install, wait, open. None of it is the reason you wanted the computer ready in the first place.

Here is one way to start:

“Install Disney+, Spotify and Netflix.”

Explore the Spotify, Disney and Netflix demo. The recording is edited for pace.

Meet DustyWire. Hand over some of the computer work.

DustyWire is an AI assistant for Windows and macOS that can work on your computer using the mouse and keyboard.

Describe what you want done. Dusty reads what is on your screen, presents a plan for your approval, and works through on-screen steps across apps and websites. You can watch the work and step in when you need to.

Some tasks are confusing. Others are just tedious. You do not have to be stuck to want a hand.

One request instead of repeating the same setup loop

The video shows Dusty finding the requested apps in Microsoft Store, starting installations, checking the downloads, and opening Spotify to a sign-in screen. It does not show paid subscriptions being purchased or accounts being signed in.

1. List the apps you want installed.
2. Review the plan and the app sources.
3. Let Dusty work through the Store and installation screens.
4. Check the apps, then handle your own account sign-ins.

Installed does not mean subscribed or signed in

Some apps require an account or paid service to use their content. Those requirements are separate from downloading the app. Availability can vary by location, device, and Store listing. Review the current publisher and listing before installing.

If you are preparing a computer for work or family use, name the apps and any setup boundaries in one request.

“Find these three apps in Microsoft Store and help install them. Leave account sign-in to me.”

What else would you rather have done?

Maybe it is a form to prepare, a table to put together, or a setting you keep meaning to change. Pick one specific result and tell Dusty where to start.

Instead of giving up another chunk of your day to the clicking, let Dusty work through the task while you keep an eye on the result.
