Experience a Complete Basic Set of Kali Tools

If you want to use this feature in Settings, it means that a large number of information security tools will be installed. This makes the Kali Linux environment richer and more capable of handling a wider range of security testing scenarios. However, note that this will also consume a significant amount of your device's disk space and system resources. If you only want to install the most basic toolset, you can refer to the basic default toolset.
