Installed via Winget, the problem is that the installer is buggy and crashes explorer.exe leaving the system in an unrecoverable state (even if you run it again via taskmgr, the menu bar is broken)

You're right but if an installer renders a computer inoperable until reboot (tried in another PC, same result, doesn't only kill explorer.exe because if I run it again via taskmgr, the taskbar is broken and non functional until reboot) it means it has been pushed to the "stable" channel without being tested a single time.
The problem is present since 2021 and it's a bit ridiculous now https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/issues/3551
In the topic you can see the devs "ok fixed in next release" => next release didn't fix it (=nobody actually clicked the exe before releasing, it just passed all automated tests), then "ok so next release gonna fix it", and again again
It has been said to gracefully restart explorer.exe instead of crashing it, it still chooses violence for a restart. It asks "do you want to reboot" twice.
I like having the bleeding edge stuff, running nextcloud in docker under the "latest" tag, but those are clearly nightlies
Finally someone did a windows installer that can add it as a service.
It was super annoying to do it manually on windows, to have it reliably start before login
TBH it would be pretty fun to play Russian roulette with this stuff for just three dollars.
This time is going to be some rare audio compilation, some interesting program or a ransomware that bricks my computer?
I only saw American closed captions on live TV almost two decades ago but the quality was much worse than the European teletext. In my country the teletext subtitles had small caps, italics and colors to identify who's talking instead the American ones, I'm guessing because they were introduced a few years earlier with a more primitive tech, were always behind and not exactly accurate to what was spoken, like if someone was typing them on the fly
if it's a tv show it could be that they come from the tv signal, those usually are all caps and poorly synced because it's tech from the 80s
Me too
I'm guessing from the thumbnail and title that Microsoft said that Minecraft users need to merge their Minecraft account (100% in Microsoft hands) with a Microsoft account. The user said no because reasons and then now they can't play
IMHO a paid and closed source program shouldn't have "open" in their name
i think you will like pigallery2
while you could install node via rpm, you really want to run this in a docker container
Last time I used Citra it was 2016, but I installed it on my onedrive folder to make it portable and it worked, it did not hide anything in appdata or registry
Usually those kind of emulators are already portable, the nightlies are just zipped executables without a setup
Update:
Today just to show the bug to someone else, I installed the update via Winget on a windows 10 PC and... nothing. It installed silently, didn't bother with asking a reboot nor crashed explorer.exe. So I went to another windows 11 PC and tried again with the silent updater and... silently updated without badly crashing explorer.
Either nextcloud fixed the installer for real or Microsoft fixed the reason explorer was crashing in the windows update that was pushed yesterday
Finally the days where all the explorer windows will disappear when updating NC desktop are gone?
