Except for games that use kernel level anti-cheat.
- Comment on Windows 12 release date in 2026 possible, with AI features that may force CPU upgrades 6 days ago:
I guess I’m no longer ever going to play a video game that runs on Windows. At some point game developers need to realize that Linux is the future of gaming if Windows keeps pulling this shit.
- Comment on Asus and Dell announce new mini PCs for Windows 365 | Goodbye local OS 1 week ago:
Not the Dell one, not worth your time or money - only has Intel N-series processor. But the ASUS one may have better internals.
- Comment on Windows 11 Notepad to support Markdown 1 week ago:
And take even longer to launch than it already does. I restore the classic Paint, Notepad and Snipping Tool from Windows 10 on my Windows 11 machines because they launch instantly and don’t have AI slop baked into them. You can uninstall the “new” versions of these apps that come with Windows 11.

I don’t think you’ll need to uninstall. If I’m reading the article correctly, it looks like they plugged the hole in their update process by switching hosting providers to one that’s even more hardened and secure. So requests from the updater should go to the correct place now and not the state-sponsored hacker.
Then in about a month, the next version of notepad++ that is released will also properly validate/verify any downloaded update files from the server.
