minus-squareNot a replicant@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoI put this in another thread: It’s not a big deal. They’re removing the bypassnro.cmd script, which is just this: @echo off reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OOBE /v BypassNRO /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f shutdown /r /t 0 You can still use shift-F10 at the same point, type those two lines (not the @ECHO OFF), and it will achieve the same result.
