If anybody (for any reason at all) needs some webspace (for any reason at all... screenshots etc.) I have a 400GB bandwidth server I can set up for that. It's not being used anyways and the month is almost over...

I could help out with that too. I have a ton of unused bandwidth this month.

It's pretty sad when the warez kiddies have the betas before the real testers do.

why is it sad?

the people who are really excited about it are these so called "Warez kiddies"...

the msdn people just brush it off as another day in the business.

edit: btw its on usenet in the default group for MS betas.

agreed... plus its not a finished os... your not really stealing anything, its not a final product, just some beta (beta 1 :D ), besides people just wanna get their hands on something new.

Oh please.  Just because it's unfinished doesn't mean you have the right to steal it.

I didnt say non-beta testers are stealing it. I assume these people wont be using beta 1 as their main os, and M$ isnt selling this... as its not a finished product... so technically their not sealing anything :o

pwned...

Yeah, thats my point, ok so its copyrighted... but so is music and *we* still download it... M$ wont be happy when Beta 1 leaks (if it hasen't already) but it will happend and people will download... *the sad truth*

I dont see why so many people are so anti-downloading.... just jealous that they weren't able to participate in the beta I guess...

      I hate religious supremacist genocidal maniacs. How antisemitic of you to imply that's what all Jews are like. Still no links I see. I guess when you're a zionists, backing your claims with proof doesn't matter. bEliEvE mE oR yOuRe hItLeR.

      Moto G Stylus has better specs and a stylus. Search for the specs to see if they they're important to you.

      Funny how people who don't use OneDrive feel the need to give their opinion.

      Win11Debloat 06.10.2026 by Razvan Serea Win11Debloat is a lightweight, easy to use PowerShell script that allows you to quickly declutter and customize your Windows experience. It can remove pre-installed bloatware apps, disable telemetry, remove intrusive interface elements and much more. The script also includes many features that system administrators and power users will enjoy. Such as a powerful command-line interface, support for Windows Audit mode and the option to make changes to other Windows users. All changes made by Win11Debloat can be easily reversed, and most removed apps can be restored via the Microsoft Store. A full guide on how to undo the changes is available here. Win11Debloat features: Below is an overview of the key features and functionality offered by Win11Debloat. Please refer to the wiki for more information about the default settings preset. Remove a wide variety of preinstalled apps. Click here for more info. Disable telemetry, diagnostic data, activity history, app-launch tracking & targeted ads. Disable tips, tricks, suggestions & ads across Windows. Disable Windows location services & app location access. Disable Find My Device location tracking. Disable 'Windows Spotlight' and tips & tricks on the lock screen. Disable 'Windows Spotlight' desktop background option. Disable ads, suggestions and the MSN news feed in Microsoft Edge.

Win11Debloat 06.10.2026 release notes: This release brings some long-requested features alongside a host of fixes. For starters, Win11Debloat can now automatically detect previously applied tweaks for the logged-in user. And reverting them is as simple as unchecking the corresponding setting.
