ELF interpretation is just a part of it. Thi...

Re: Windows 10 now hides local account option

Great feature, let's see if we can implement that in ReactOS as well. What would we use as the online account provider? reactos.org accounts? you just have to click the text left to the button to NOT use a MS account.
