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...

Correct, Oracle VirtualBox was the furthest I went. It was interesting, but:

there is absolutely zero reason to not go the extra mile and hop to desktop freedom.

My digital life, in both professional and personal capacities, is intertwined with hundreds of my AutoHotkey scripts, which appears to be Win-only; AutoKey is the closest thing that I could find and is so much harder to use or even understand.

Anyway, thanks for that Titus utility!

Chris Titus has excellent tutorials/tips on how to keep Windows from being Windows, check out his Youtube (Piped).

Thanks! Is it just me, or are videos from this website no longer loading?
