I’ve always just used Python for smaller tasks, mainly because of it’s popularity - which means it’s easy to quickly find example code or library for virtually any usecase you may have for such a script.
But I’ve lately started using Powershell a little bit more, because it just works on any Windows machine and you don’t need to install anything. And for apps that are more involved than a quick automation script or throwaway calculation, I just go with C# since that’s what I’m used to the most.
