News Here's what happens when you change every registry value in Windows 10 to zero — technically, the OS still boots up

i wonder if this guy has the time to slowly change back one thing at a time to get needed stuff working. it's an interesting thought experiment anyway.

so what needs to be on for exe files to run? then what might need to be turned on for a browser to work and so on. just for the fun of it, it could be an interesting time waster.

never thought of this myself, but it is a rather interesting idea to explore.

Pretty pointless, but I have watched pointless things on YouTube before so that’s a thing that could be monetised.

Would have been more interesting if he had learned about everything the important ones did and made a series of well tagged YouTube shorts explaining them

If you have a spare PC, what's wrong with trying things, just because you can?

Many things we take for granted these days, wouldn't exist if someone hadn't thought, I wonder what will happen if I try this and, then went and tried it.
