Yea it annoys me too, you can switch it back, but I can’t do that every time I’m working on someone’s computer.

That stopped working for home editions of windows. On pro you can say you are joining a local domain, but on home you have to use a workaround, such as the bypass command or a locked out account.

In terms of user content this would be correct. However when it comes to games on the platform valve does do curation to ensure games run etc. I don’t know if it has been tested, but that curation could exclude them from the protection. If that was the case they could be directly sued for copyright infringement.

I did this years ago when it was added to home, not seen shorts since. Good guide.

I sometimes feel like I go all the way around. I find a fix for a problem that says: just copy and paste this. I then spend 3 hours or more reading and trying to understand the snippet, or do it directly. Then I realise the fix is to just copy and paste that original snippet.

I guess at least I now understand why everyone just does that for that problem.
