This is really intriguing, but am I reading the instructions correctly? Call me dumb, but I don’t know how to reinstall Win10 Home; I don’t have a recovery CD or anything like that. I’d also need to back up everything first… which would be a pain…

Why is this in free and open source software? Last time I checked windows was proprietary

True… forgot! I wanna move to Linux but I’m having trouble with Python (to port over my Windows-only AutoHotkey scripts)…

For once that actually sounds like something you could use AI for and it would be useful

I probably would have if I had heard about it before I reformatted last (it wasn’t that long ago). I didn’t feel like re-installing again so soon. I have it bookmarked for later though.

AtlasOS in a windows spin that’s just straight up insecure and borderline broken given how many tweaks it makes and it disabling updating

Examples of cringe :

Hope you saved your word docs, because this insta force kills any app on shutdown

Hard drive full? you’ll never know
