Title: ReactOS 0.4.14 - Free & Open Source Windows NT Remake

Today I try out the reactos 0.4.14 release, reactos is a free and opensource Windows remake made using clean room reverse engineering of the Windows NT (new technology) kernel that is the basis for every version of Windows since XP, including the current release Windows 11.

ReactOS is specifically based on Windows XP, released in 2001, but they are working to modernize it with 64 bit support, and more software compatibility, which is already extremely impressive. Reactos desktop environment is clearly inspired by Windows classic theme, which is my favorite Windows theme, and what I would use if it was still available on modern versions.

One of the most amazing features of ReactOS is binary driver support with Windows, which means in theory gaming will be easy with all of the API's and GPU support. Should I make a reactos gaming video, let me know in the comments below.

Much of the music in my videos comes from the YouTube audio library, especially this amazing music creator: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTPI2hZYxoHtdGEpdFoaU5A .
