Hello guys,

So, as usual, I will share with you many information and an updated schedule, for the entire WinReducer Project, which means information about the WinReducer Series and WinReducerOS software !
1 - STATUS OF THE WINREDUCER PROJECT
First of all, a lot of people asked me during the past months, if the WinReducer Project was dead ... let me be straight ... the answer is : NO !
The WinReducer Software will continue to be updated regularly ... and yes, I assume, for the moment, this is done with less updates than few years ago.
This new development cycle, we are talking about today, will be the latest stone to the biggest evolution of the WinReducer Project : in few words, integrate the WinReducerOS software as well as keeping the specificity of all WinReducer Series software in the long term vision I had since I dreamed about WinReducerOS !
A huge work has been silently done since many years to provide you a much better and much more interesting evolution for the WinReducer Project ... for this, I never counted my hours, days or nights to think about the future of the WinReducer Project, to test it, to review it, to modify it, to create it and to share it with all of you !
So, believe me when I say, enlighten by all the work done, that even if I'm silent I'm working on the future of the WinReducer Project !

5 - WINREDUCEROS - v2022.x.x.x
WinReducerOS is still in its alpha development stage, there are many things I'm not satisfied of ... so to be honest, the different beta/stable status will be reached not before the mentioned dates in the paragraph 2 of this "WinReducer Project - Status Information - 01 May 2022" named "WinReducer Schedule" !
6 - WINREDUCER "ES - File Validator", "ES - Logo Changer", "ES - Wim Converter", "ES - Wlan B&R", "EX-70", "EX-80", "EX-81" and "EX-100" planned Limited Support, End Of Support and End Of Life

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Hello guys,
Here we are ... 10 years later from 2011 to 2021 ... how amazing this was !
10 years of pleasure, 10 years of researches, 10 years of discoveries, 10 years of hard work, 10 years of days and nights work, 10 years of coffee, 10 years of wonderful discussions, 10 years of bugs, 10 years of requests, 10 years of ideas, 10 years of sharing, 10 years of amazing users community, 10 years of amazing forum members, 10 years of amazing facebook members, 10 years of amazing translators, 10 years of amazing forum moderators, 10 years of wonderful registered users, 10 years of passion, 10 years of development, 10 years of software, 10 years of thinking to the future, 10 years of ES-Series, 10 years of EX-Series ... 10 years of adventure ... and it seems to be yesterday !
The 05 October 2011, the WinReducer Project got its final name ... and the Project was finalized with a first step of development to create the website and forum as well as to propose many software solutions to customize Windows ... and a second step which was WinReducerOS (already named in 2011) !
Yes, the 05 October is an important date for the WinReducer Project, his official name and Project status in 2011 and his official WinReducer..net website and forum in 2012 !
So, for this event, one day is not enough, to thank you for your help, contribution, ideas, reports, sharing ... there will be 10 days to celebrate 10 years of WinReducer Project with many surprises !
For example, today you will see a new software website page and a new forum dedicated part for WinReducer EX-110 ... to customize the new Windows 11 Operating System which is already available. With it, a new chapter of the WinReducer Project will be opened, because this will be the 5th Windows Operating System to get a WinReducer Software support !
The First EX-110 official version will be available on 8-9-10 October 2021 and will be based on the EX-100 interface v3.x.x.x. ... do not hope to much about it for the moment ... the customization options will be available progressively with the same schema of the EX-100 release schedule and rhythm since 2015 !
The WinReducer Project has a new software project : WinReducerOS ... which is also in an alpha phase, increasing progressively the number of options ... this is just the beginning of this new adventure !
I can assure you that the work on the ES-Series and EX-Series software is not finished because a v4.x.x.x is already planned in 2022 !
So I really want to send an enormous THANK YOU to all users, members, translators, moderators and registered users for your passion in making the WinReducer Project better and better every day and by exploring new ways to customize Windows ... I'm very happy to have you on my side since all these years.
With WinReducer ES-Series, EX-Series and WinReducerOS software, you will get the most complete customization solution to create or modify what you want or need !
I wish you to have a great day !
Regards,
winterstorm2050

* WinReducer Project - 10th Anniversary (05 October 2021)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Hello guys,
Here we are ... 10 years later from 2011 to 2021 ... how amazing this was !
10 years of pleasure, 10 years of researches, 10 years of discoveries, 10 years of hard work, 10 years of days and nights work, 10 years of coffee, 10 years of wonderful discussions, 10 years of bugs, 10 years of requests, 10 years of ideas, 10 years of sharing, 10 years of amazing users community, 10 years of amazing forum members, 10 years of amazing facebook members, 10 years of amazing translators, 10 years of amazing forum moderators, 10 years of wonderful registered users, 10 years of passion, 10 years of development, 10 years of software, 10 years of thinking to the future, 10 years of ES-Series, 10 years of EX-Series ... 10 years of adventure ... and it seems to be yesterday !
The 05 October 2011, the WinReducer Project got its final name ... and the Project was finalized with a first step of development to create the website and forum as well as to propose many software solutions to customize Windows ... and a second step which was WinReducerOS (already named in 2011) !
Yes, the 05 October is an important date for the WinReducer Project, his official name and Project status in 2011 and his official WinReducer..net website and forum in 2012 !
So, for this event, one day is not enough, to thank you for your help, contribution, ideas, reports, sharing ... there will be 10 days to celebrate 10 years of WinReducer Project with many surprises !
For example, today you will see a new software website page and a new forum dedicated part for WinReducer EX-110 ... to customize the new Windows 11 Operating System which is already available. With it, a new chapter of the WinReducer Project will be opened, because this will be the 5th Windows Operating System to get a WinReducer Software support !
The First EX-110 official version will be available on 8-9-10 October 2021 and will be based on the EX-100 interface v3.x.x.x. ... do not hope to much about it for the moment ... the customization options will be available progressively with the same schema of the EX-100 release schedule and rhythm since 2015 !
The WinReducer Project has a new software project : WinReducerOS ... which is also in an alpha phase, increasing progressively the number of options ... this is just the beginning of this new adventure !
I can assure you that the work on the ES-Series and EX-Series software is not finished because a v4.x.x.x is already planned in 2022 !
So I really want to send an enormous THANK YOU to all users, members, translators, moderators and registered users for your passion in making the WinReducer Project better and better every day and by exploring new ways to customize Windows ... I'm very happy to have you on my side since all these years.
With WinReducer ES-Series, EX-Series and WinReducerOS software, you will get the most complete customization solution to create or modify what you want or need !
I wish you to have a great day !
Regards,
winterstorm2050
P.S. : Stay tune for the website news during the next 10 days because there will be many surprises !
