    This article for supposedly being update 5 month ago is profoundly out of date. All of the Microsoft operating systems listed are not supported and have been removed from use. You'll really need to update this to cover current OS's e.g. Windows 10 and Windows 11.

    I agree with Chris.  We need updated instructions for Windows 10 and 11.
