Krishna Noutiyal

Krishna Noutiyal is a niche developer focused on minimalist server utilities for the Windows ecosystem, best known for PSFserver, a PowerShell-native HTTP file server that launches instantly without external runtimes or installation steps. The tool is aimed at administrators, penetration testers, and classroom instructors who need a temporary, portable web server for sharing firmware images, lab documents, or log files across a local network. Because the entire program is a single self-contained PS1 script, it can be dropped on a USB stick, executed from any Windows box, and terminated without leaving registry traces—making it popular during incident-response exercises where third-party binaries are prohibited. Typical use-cases include serving installation media to headless machines, exposing a static site for front-end prototyping, or providing a quick download portal on conference Wi-Fi. Despite its tiny footprint, PSFserver supports configurable port binding, mime-type mapping, basic authentication, and IPv6, so it also doubles as a lightweight distribution point for Group Policy payloads or IoT updates. Krishna Noutiyal’s broader catalog is expected to expand along similar lines: zero-dependency, command-line-first utilities that leverage native Windows subsystems rather than redistributable frameworks. PSFserver and any future releases from the publisher are available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always fetch the latest upstream version, and can be installed individually or in unattended batch sets.
