Not mentioning no one's gonna do the key combination normally ever, and even if they did, they'd just think there's something wrong and restart their device which will run OOBE again.
      Your claim about DevTools in browsers being different from this is true, because the OOBE's DevTools is much more restrictive and would require a lot more effort to break anything without editing the files themselves. *You're just paranoid*

    Honestly HTML/CSS is the best UI framework I've ever used as far as customization and ease of use goes. Pair it with a advanced framework like Angular and you've got a powerful toolbox for UI development.
    Could be done for customization purposes but it could also be done simply because HTML/CSS is great to develop with.
    (JS not so much, but TypeScript helps a lot.)
    Another benefit is that you can develop UIs that work in a web browser, on mobile, and on the desktop, and they all can share the same code. Of course that wouldn't apply in this case.

    I'm not sure about the benefits of custom solutions... If OOBE were modular, then there would be no questions, and I would even make a beautiful version myself now. But since it's part of the installer, I don't want to distribute or download custom Windows builds of them because of the nice installer, because there are often viruses... Thanks for the video!

      Possibly because most people see the OOBE after buying a new PC or upgrading Windows, in which case there's already GPU drivers installed.

    Fun sequence break I did a while back
    Set a high contrast theme the more obvious the change the cooler this will look (set background to very dark color and other text accordingly)
    Force oobe to start in a window
    You now have dark mode oobe
    Also based off of this you could entriely with enough time make a fully dark mode oobe with the blur background (this seems to get a copy of the user wallpaper)
    Also can’t wait for the bad bootlegs that have oobe to completely mutilate it
    Also didn’t know it ran in audit mode probably explains why the oobe image background didn’t match the oem one

    It's glorious. Spywaresoft wanted to make sure everyone would get win11 and hoped people would stop using win10, 7 and xp, they never thought about this.
    With this, we've pretty much got for the first time, our own "arch-like" windows.
    With this, you can fully customize win11, to be a ENTIRELY different OS, and, if you wish to apply more salt to the injury, make it "linuxised", as im suure spywaresoft would be REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEiing for years to come, as their OS was converted into a linux OS, their nemesis! XD

    I love how the OOBE is extremely bugged by itself too
    On a trackpad on the Windows 10 one doing the zoom in and out gesture works but it is extremely buggy since it is not intended (this is because it should be a webapp?)
    If your display driver installs before the OOBE starts you have a desktop on one screen and the OOBE on the other.
    I don't know if this still works but on Windows 10 home connecting to the internet then using settings from ease of access and disconnecting from the Internet via the app should let you create a local account (this is what I remember worked once atleast)

    im pretty sure you arent editing the sources directly, its pluggable through some api or tool for oems. just like you have unattend.xml for applying settings in a supported manner and not requiring hacks like intercepting the boot process to manually do what the unattend already does, either registry change or policy or executing programs
