The past few years I’ve been hearing crazy stories of workarounds and scripts to deal with all these new features in Windows. Isn’t that what was preventing people from using Linux? Replacing utilman.exe with cmd.exe is not something a normal user would ever do.
I was thinking the same thing. Never thought I'd see a world where Arch has an installer (and, jokes aside, many Linux distros have very straightforward GUI installers) while people have to... "hit Shift+F10 to get a terminal, then enter start ms-cxh:localonly" to install Windows with a local account. Jeez.
