Also, "Windows To Go" and "Windows To Stay" are really funny feature names.

I found that ModMii leaked some global variables from a (failed) SNEEK install to a system menu mod('s help file), and being written in Batch certainly explains things...
But 27 kLOC for the WII thing or 3 kLOC for the recovery tool which even looks a bit more convoluted then the WII thing sounds interesting to maintain. On the other hand, if it works, no dependencies no 200 MB binary blob.
Writing a Batch script of any length, let alone 3085 lines, is completely insane with PowerShell being part of the default install.
It's not a security boundary, just something to stop users accidentally opening an email attachment like they will with bat/vbs.
A condition or a loop? You’re writing everything in C# then. Everything worth writing, anyway.
You could get some ridiculously complicated batch files if you really needed the added functionality.
Press ESC twice for nostalgia.
Now there's something I haven't heard of in a while. I remember using it on the original Droid phone when messing with roms

Maybe situations where the standard recovery env is borked? Was that the case in the recent CrowdStrike debacle?
Nah, it still worked fine on my work laptop and allowed to boot in to safe mode, which also worked (didn't crash).
The first problem, however, is more significant, but you even won't come to solving if you've encrypted filesystem. And then you have to do it for each and every device/VM. It's just too much.
if you could boot into safe mode, then you already knew what to do and what to delete. Just imagine - bsod - you don't know why. A hint may be shown ;)
I thought about doing it through WINE, but that kinda scares me.
unfortunately my monitor received new firmware only installable through an exe, I only have my linux desktop
In all likelihood, yes - this project will likely allow you to do that perfectly fine! But I'd be prepared for the installer to be total bloatware that doesn't work or works for most of the process before something goes wrong.
