TLDR: StartAllBack, ExplorerPatcher and some other projects are being blocked on 24H2.

Yep, Microsoft is also blocking some github scripts for disabling telemetry,etc. They are just making it worse for themselves

What do you mean?

Are these scripts being distributed via github or disabling telemetry on github?

[–] quantumcog@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

I mean PowerShell scripts used to disable telemetry services on Windows.

That's why you block the telemetry at the router level as a big fat fuck you.
