TLDR: StartAllBack, ExplorerPatcher and some other projects are being blocked on 24H2.
One more reason to switch to Linux

How you explained it helped a lot. So it basically is a windows emulator but isn’t for legal reasons? Lol
Haha no, it’s technically not an emulator. Emulation means having a whole fake CPU that runs your software. Wine doesn’t do that, instead it makes the windows exe run in Linux and provides an API so the calls your windows program makes run natively.
Tldr emulation is slow, wine makes your programs run natively.
I switched to Linux for gaming a year ago and I have been blown away by how good it is.
Not really an emulator, though the end result is similar. WINE translates the instructions sent between the OS and software to languages each other understands. It’s like a Babel Fish for Windows programs and the Linux OS.
