[QUOTE="Marko :), post: 813068, member: 39702"] Actually, you can. Just download the wallpaper, right click on it and select [I]Set as desktop background[/I]. There are a lot of apps that can personalize PC even with Windows deactivated. [IMG]https://cdn.windowsreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/dual-monitor-wallpaper-copy-4.png[/IMG] You may noticed that Windows 10 comes with preinstalled apps from 3rd party (like Candy Crush, Disney Magic Kingdom etc.). Microsoft for sure earns money that way (when you buy in-app purchases Microsoft also gets a cut). There are ads inside the OS too (you can disable them, but they are enabled by default). And they still sell Windows for 200€. Business users need to have only legal and fully activated software on their PCs otherwise they risk fines. Microsoft never said anything about using deactivated versions of Windows, as far as I know. If they don't want users to use Windows deactivated, they could easily add annoying popups like that was the case with Windows 7 and other versions. Maybe they don't care, or care only for business users (because they need to have legal and fully activated software only). [/QUOTE]
