We at MMS are deeply saddened to share an urgent update about our beloved community member, Steve Beaumont (@StevybSC). For years, Steve has been a speaker at our event, fostering connection, friendship, and invaluable support within the MMS family. His passion and dedication have touched so many of us, and we owe him an immense debt of gratitude for enriching our community. Recently, we learned the heartbreaking news that Steve’s battle with Stage 4 colorectal cancer has taken a difficult turn, his second-line chemotherapy has unfortunately failed to make an impact. This news adds urgency to supporting him and his family during this challenging time.
As Steve mentioned in his post: (https://t.co/NWdBS7Brp7), a cruel technicality voided his life insurance claim, leaving his family vulnerable. To help secure a stable future for his wife Kirsten and their children, Steve has launched a GoFundMe campaign with a goal of £100,000 to reduce their mortgage burden. Every donation, no matter the size, will bring peace and hope to their lives. Let’s come together as a community to show Steve the same love and support he’s given us. Please donate at: 👉 https://t.co/sTtr2xwH2O
If you can’t donate, please share this post widely. Your network might hold the key to helping Steve’s family. Together, let’s ensure his legacy of kindness endures. Thank you, Steve, for all you’ve done. The MMS community stands with you.❤️

My second blog post of the month is up. Nothing too crazy, this time I’m looking at the upcoming Windows Administrator Protection feature… How it works, what continues to work, and some reversing. Check it out (or not I’m not your mum!) https://t.co/UtYRk1mTjz
It should be final, almost a complete rewrite. It's hard to live with what I have, lol.

I can't guarantee that the uninstaller will work for all user-installed apps, but it should work for most...
