Doesn't work well at all. There's a popular garbage news channel here in Brazil. Every week I have to do that, it never works. I never click on the videos, so no idea why they think I'm interested.

Because it has cost benefit. Redmi Note here in Brazil are super popular. The only alternative for that, it's Samsung, but is not exactly better. I believe Xiaomi devices are still cheaper than Samsung here.

Yeah, just found it weird because Windows does have x264 codec, and obviously mp3 since ages.

They are monolith for the OS, not for developers anymore if they are using appx/msix Win32 apps, it comes with virtualized registry by default. So every app has a different and isolated registry. There is also C:\Users\%username%\AppDa

I would consider this still VERY big. It's ok for backend stuff. But now you can also use .NET --Core-- with WinForms, WPF and WinUI. That means, GUI Apps. You'll have several GUI apps installed on user system... UWP already handl

If you use UWP, don't disable swap. Ever. They are 100% reliant and you'll have problems, even if you have a lot of RAM. Reason? UWP apps will always suspend if you minimize, for example. They move that to swap. It was basically m
