I’ve since moved on to Win11 but sometimes I still miss XP. RIP.
This menu was my childhood
Heh. User with password. That didn’t matter so much on XP. It was remarkably easy to erase or reset a password on WinXP.
I believe chntpw still works on Win11 even! I know I’ve used it on windows 10 to great effect
You can easily do this on Linux too if you have physical access to the hard drive and it isn’t encrypted (which is default on most distros).
I thought I was a late transitioner, finally retiring from XP in 2014 for Windows 8. Goddamn.
I also used Windows XP for a much longer time, when everyone was using 7, i was still using XP, first when they stopped supporting XP, did i move onto Windows 10

This, Vista (with appropriate hardware) and 7 were the last good ones
Would be cool if someone could leverage the source code leak to patch it up and get it using modern TLS ciphers and harden the kernel and OS, but doubt that will ever happen, too much work.
7 was great, but vista was a cancer. They gradually fixed it with 8, 10, 11
8 wasn’t good, but it wasn’t the worst. Then 10 is another great windows, but 11 just feels like 10 with a smoother interface+copying Apple
