This is really intriguing, but am I reading the instructions correctly? Call me dumb, but I don't know how to reinstall Win10 Home; I don't have a recovery CD or anything like that. I'd also need to back up everything first... which would be a pain...

I generally would recommend staying away from third party modified versions of Windows. This would be especially true for OP as you seem to be a relatively inexperienced user.

Usually the security risk isnt worth whatever they offer and most of the time any features they offer could usually be accomplished within standard Windows.

I heard (back when it was featured on Linus tech tips), that it completely disabled Windows defender. Big red flag IMO.
