Description

This is currently being updated every few days - which is absolutely phenomenal - but I can't find any documentation on how to update with reasonable safety if a significant bug is found or new features are added. Or even if it is ok to do so and most people would be better off just waiting until things stabilize.

What I assume would be reasonably ok is:

  1. Restoring to Windows 11 defaults with the version you originally used (assuming there are no bugs relating to the restoration process).
  2. Restart computer
  3. Download new version
  4. Setup Windows using the App
  5. Restart computer

If you have more details I'd appreciate it. Cheers!
