Anyone want to try it on a VM and report back?
public static void ExtractFile(string apbx, string file, string targetDir, bool recursive = false)
{
if (recursive)
APBX.RunCommand("x \"" + file + "\" -o\"" + targetDir + "\" -p\"malte\" -y -r");
else
APBX.RunCommand("x \"" + apbx + "\" -o\"" + targetDir + "\" -p\"malte\" \"" + file + "\" -y -r-");
}
public static void ExtractArchive(string apbx, string targetDir, string exclude = null)
{
if (exclude != null)
APBX.RunCommand("x \"" + apbx + "\" -o\"" + targetDir + "\" -p\"malte\" -x!\"" + exclude + "\" -y");
else
APBX.RunCommand("x \"" + apbx + "\" -o\"" + targetDir + "\" -p\"malte\" -y");

If you care not to report your usage to Microsoft or any agency that Microsoft would need to release data to this is 100% 'secure'.
Security has become the main argument for unwanted ongoing spying and patronising by OS vendors. Look at Google play services and/or safety net. It is like trust us or we render your system unusable it insecure. This amounts to blackmailing IMHO and regulators need to step in.

We did not take the easy path of writing our app in Java or a web-based Java-script heavy framework. Using C# and .NET allows us to craft an experience that minimizes resource use and is very fast.

If so, it's a weird prank. Where's the punchline?
Bought a surface pro for kids, and had to clean wipe Windows 11 less than a week as they pushed an update causing external display to flicker, uninstalling the update screwed up the whole system and the system restore did not work at all. So had to spend half a day just to install Windows 10.
For my own laptop, mostly looked okay until a couple of days ago except a couple different minor issues got fixed now and then. All of a sudden, Edge became unbearably slow. Simply create a new tab or switching to another one could take a minute despite the cpu usage was less than 10% and over 32GB free mem available. Tried everything such as switching off hardware acceleration etc., none worked. Then I noticed that the URL inspection related fuction which was for sure turned off was back on again. Turned those off those, it got much faster but still slower than it should be.
That's the last straw. Installed Fedora and it looks great by default. However, I still need to find some substitution for the stuffs I use on Windows. Once that's done, Windows 11 can go.

erm... no thanks.
Going to need a bit more than just a fancy home page before I do that!
Source code is public though I admit the detail on the front page is lacking.
Short of joining their Telegram channel I couldn't find another way of flagging this.
A set of instructions, such as documentation defining what to do.
Or, more commonly these days: Ansible "playbooks" which run a series of idempotent scripts to bring a system into a desired state. (the terminology taken from the above).
The downsides are that the current ISO injects the creator's preferences in ways which are difficult to change (lock screen image, not being an admin account, VBScript disabled which breaks Visual Studio Installer, only one user usable, etc.). Additionally, applications (Visual Studio, VS Command Prompt, C# build tools even on Linux, vcpkg, Discord) invariably exfiltrate endless amounts of information, even if you clean up the operating system.
Not the best look when you misname the technology that you’re bagging.

Finally an open alternative to NTLite, I am gonna try this out for sure!
The older .info domain also referenced by the LTT video links to a Telegram group, whose owners now link to the new .io domain of this post.
As to why the old website does not reference the new domain directly, I have no idea.
As always with scripts that modify your system in fundamental ways, please take great care and do your own research.
Btw: Have W11 fixed so that's it's possible to "ungroup" items in the task bar yet? I reverted back to W10 after a few weeks because it was absolutely unusable having all my open editor windows grouped to a single thing in the taskbar, making it hard to quickly switch to the correct one.
