I've been seriously meaning to

It's a web app, and it's nice and simple.

Because last time I saw it which was when @zersiax tried to install it on stream he didn't have many flattering words to say about it. Which, considering all the installer said in turn was button button button was honestly fair.

I've never had any luck installing anything else unfortunately.

They just grab an ISO from Microsoft, they don't put in a product key or anything.

I did like QuickEMU when I tried it a while ago, no idea how they got it to run that well.
