Hate to break it to you but those days are over.
From what we know so far, Win 12 will go all in on AI, cloud and a subscription model.
My prediction is that they'll go full SaaS and make the non-pro version "free", with a whole raft of features "cloud only" behind a Azure/O365 subscription.
That system fell apart when they showed they could not count to 9. 10 Should have been 9, and it was mid at best.
