Hello! On September 30. 2025 Microsoft released Windows 11 25H2!
And that gave me the opportunity and question... If it is "so modern" that Microsoft puts WinSDK/UWP apps everywhere, what will actually happen if we get rid of them completely and will stay our good stable Win32 only? Lets find it out!
