Why did every application start integrating the required .NET version within the application itself instead of making it a requirement to install separately? This is redundant and makes the program bigger, for example ShareX is now 200MB bigger because of .NET 9 and now O&O ShutUp10++ is doing the same thing, I already installed every required .NET version on my device.

It's necessary for portability. Also, users may not want to install another .NET version just to use one program. Most programs are not backward compatible, from what I have seen. Like, apps that need .NET 8 won't work if you install .NET 9. You would need .NET 8 for that app even if you have 9 installed. Dependencies after dependencies. So sometimes it's better to just pack it all in, even if it increases the size. One file for all, like Linux AppImages.
Though it's better to give users choice but that depends on the developers willingness to support both versions.

I'm glad you mentioned Linux and AppImage, which is one of the reasons why flatpak is more popular than other packaging technologies on Linux. It installs and shares the libraries required for applications instead of installing the same library again for other applications.

Though it's better to give users choice but that depends on the developers willingness to support both versions.

BCUninstaller has done it, the portable version includes the required .NET 6, and the installer will install it on the device, I think this is the best implementation.

Yeah, but I think one of main reasons for AppImages to be not popular is due to not having a centralized system like Flathub and Snap for easy installation. Flatpaks share common libraries among apps while Snaps do not. All snaps are self-contained, so usually bigger in size. Snap vs Flatpak is a fair comparison.
In case you don't know about this, there is this AppImage manager which makes installing and updating AppImages super easy. He even adds other non-AppImage apps if they can be used portably. The maintainer is great and usually accepts user requests and fixes bugs within an hour or two every time I reported something.

Yeah, that's the best way to do it. Sometimes devs probably don't provide both options to make life easy for themselves.
This new version of O&O ShutUp10++ now takes longer to load, at least with Microsoft Defender due to the size Thankfully I open it only after a windows update to check whether the update has changed any settings or not. Last time something changed was maybe about 2 years ago.

• Hide the “Try the new Outlook” toggle in Outlook (F022)
• Disable automatic migration to the new Outlook (F023)
• Filter settings by category, including in Edit Mode; the search box explains the available filters
• Nine additional program languages: Czech, Korean, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil), Turkish, Ukrainian, and Traditional Chinese

Improved

• Biometric features title and description (P009) name Windows Hello; the PIN remains usable
• Lock screen setting descriptions (K001, K002) explain that K002 also disables Windows Spotlight
• “Secure Boot” tab shows error details and provides clearer guidance on blocking settings and firmware errors
• Updated the application runtime to .NET 10
• Notes explain which settings Microsoft Defender may revert through Tamper Protection
• PREM: Custom profiles can be overwritten under the same name after confirmation
• PREM: “Add-Only” and “Replace-All” descriptions explain how settings outside the profile are handled
• PREM: Reverted Defender settings are logged; a notification indicates when automatic retries stop

Fixed

• Edge search bar can also be disabled in current Edge versions (E124, E224); previously applied settings need to be applied again
• After a restore point is created successfully, the prompt only returns on the next program start
• Secure Boot certificate status accounts for newer success events and pending restarts; old error values no longer cause an error message
• Secure Boot certificates are recognized even when firmware data contains extra bytes
• Failed Secure Boot certificate update message no longer repeats the same text
• Window comes to the foreground when opened through the notification area icon or a second program instance
• Window size, maximized state, and screen position are preserved after restarting or restoring from the notification area
• Corrected and completed translations, text formatting, and menu access keys across settings and dialogs
• Failed program restarts, including as administrator, report an error code; the existing window stays open if the new instance exits early
• Diagnostics log includes full error details in warnings and informational messages
• Free Edition: Embedded program files are signed to prevent Smart App Control from blocking startup
• PREM: Reduced processor usage while the main window is hidden and fewer repeated queries by the AI status card
• PREM: Unmonitored settings no longer trigger false change notifications or unintended changes by automatic protection
• PREM: Repeated application of settings reverted by Defender is limited to avoid recurring tampering alerts
• PREM: Profile application mode is saved immediately and retained when duplicating profiles; it survives unexpected exits
• PREM: Recurring status queries no longer displace older entries in the change log
