[03:45:20] <exec> 08└─- The step after that will be eliminating app installations altogether; after all, any software you could/should possibly use comes part of the base Windows installation. You might need to upgrade* to Ultra Black Extra Core Edition for some features however. *) May incur an upgrade fee.
