      Well I’ll be. Yes, I’m still on Windows 10. I suppose now I have a reason to consider updating.

        Not really recommending this downgrade

            Why yes, let me run some untrusted software as admin from Github patching a central part of my OS while I don’t even know what it does!

                Or the developers could write a proper readme and at least tell me what the software is for. If you can’t even bother to do that, I’ll gladly miss out on your software. Who knows what other surprises you just ignored.

                    Why can’t this be in the README, which is the first thing you see when opening the repository? Developers who hide stuff like that don’t make me want to install their software. They could literally paste that wiki startpage into the README and I wouldn’t have complained.

                  Seems like it got proper documentation. I guess you just cope.

                  I more often I see weird projects that only offer binaries that people just recommend me or even the school, I would rather trust Open Source code that has less documentation than a binary only project with little documentation. I don’t even trust Microsoft binaries. Its always malware because its very malicious to send so much telemetry without asking me

          I installed Windows 11 AME on my Windows 11 and generally I hate too much things about it in general, but it has nothing to do with AME, it actually improved the experience by a bit, but Windows still has too many issues to just stay at Win 10
