Microsoft blocks even more customization apps in Windows 11 version 24H2
www.neowin.net
Microsoft appears to be blocking even more apps for customizing the user interface in Windows 11 24H2. Users noticed that ExplorerPatcher joined the recently blocked StartAllBack app.

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

One more reason to switch to Linux

    Linux does not compete with Windows as a desktop operating system and I doubt it ever will.

    Surely it doesn’t, the former is a good system, the latter is monopolistic shit supported by people with duckling syndrome and those who know no better.

    EDIT:

    does not offer the compatibility and ease of use (including for power users) that Windows - for all its faults - has.

    I hope you don’t mean those google-fu masters by “power users”, but otherwise this wouldn’t make any sense.

      There’s a wide gulf between googlers and power users, and between power users and the “truly skilled”. I’m a Systems “Engineer” with nearly a decade experience in Tech Support, SysAdmin work, building custom system integrations/interop layers, and building custom automations.

      Got no problem doing deep troubleshooting, compiling from source, finding issues in open source code bases, fixing them, submitting pull requests, etc.

      Doesn’t mean I want to have to do all that regularly when I have other shit to get done.
