Thanks

On the readme page, release notes and the main page I've explained how to install it

[Vaflor]

Yeah - I tried the powershell install method

[HotCakeX]

ofc no problem, do you know the exact reason for the hold? 24H2 was released 2 months ago and had multiple cumulative updates since then

I'm on a Asus device .

Im Spinning up a VM with 24H2 so it wont stop me ;o)

Thanks for the link, there are a couple of specific holds, the main issue with 23H2 and earlier is that policy removal or signed kernel-mode policy deployments require a reboot which isn't the case on 24H2 and later. I can try to make the app compatible with 23H2 so you can still use other features.

Thanks - you dont have to do that. I have a VM now .

Much appreciated thou.

It's okay, i'm thinking about others with similar holds who want to try out the app and i don't want using a VM to become a requirement, so i made this issue based on this discussion #435
