It works, doesn't look too bad. i don't know if VS Code will work but the Arduino IDE, Thonny, and gVim loaded with no problem. It's not a speed daemon but it wasn't with Windows 7 either. The real adventure was using Ventoy and the real problem was the download from SourceForge. That website has more clickbait download buttons than anything I've seen lately and finding the right one without installing some shit is tricky.
