I have Windows 10 in virtual box to test it... so far i have no intention of using it, but it interests me for hacking it's UI. Maybe IF i ever succeed enough at hacking the UI, i might start using it... and that's a big IF.
If you know how to run a user as administrator, i'd be very interested in that (there is a checkbox somewhere to change a user to admin but it is greyed out). As of now, it doesn't even let me save files to C:\.
Here is my preliminary reg file... very preliminary, it doesn't even actually remove Cortana, it's still there in the services eating up 30MB of memory.
