Note: This is the Insider Preview version that can be upgraded via Windows Update to the final release when avaible.

(1) The free download links have limited bandwidth, are shared between multiple users, and have other restrictions. The server might also be down for maintenance periodically. When they are too slow or not available, try them at a different time.
(2) The download links on the Ko-fi page are accessible only to those who log in with a Ko-fi account and have opted to support Dong Knows Tech with a monthly recurring donation plan. A one-off donation does NOT gain access to the downloads. Ko-fi is a donation service that’s unrelated to this website’s subscription.
