U can just open cmd and run a command or Evan better use tiny11 and the activator program that way u dont even need to pay the assholes

People really be out here preloading their computer with viruses to get around Microsoft's latest bullshit instead of just using Linux, we ain't never gonna have the Year of the Linux Desktop

we ain't never gonna have the Year of the Linux Desktop

Yes, but at this point you can't even blame Microsoft for this. Maybe the issue lies elsewhere?

That's where you're wrong, buddy. It's actually very easy to blame Microsoft for holding a decades-long desktop monopoly by pushing manufacturers to include Windows on every PC out of the box.

Why can't we blame Microsoft?

Yeah I forgot the exact process but I just used cmd and got around this when I built my current machine a couple years ago
