Windows activation

[Hyote]

I'm only making this topic to let you know of something potentially affecting the heavy/variable input that gets worse over time. I had a long play session yesterday and after 3 hours I got the activation watermark because my current minimal services config leaves the Software Protection Platform Service (sppsvc) disabled. I'm not putting this in the same category as other settings and changes because all of them fade over time but this one does not. An unactivated Windows is generally bad in every way, especially ~~because it supposedly locks you out of exclusive fullscreen mode~~. However I noticed that all of my input heaviness that could be temporarily fixed by changing settings or restarting devices was non existent from the point the watermark came up. It might be one of the temporary things that have a longer effect but it looks highly unlikely plus this is something I never tried or heard of others trying.

Stop sppsvc and wait for 3 hours to get unactivated.

if i disable it, will i lose any data or settings? and can i enable it again without having any problems or without having to backup data?

I think it only locks you out of color and theme settings but definitely doesn't do anything to your data. It gets activated right away when you start sppsvc again.

By deactivating Windows but I'm not sure it can be done with a HWID activation which is the one being used for 10 and 11. I had to do a reinstall today and even though I never connected to the internet and had the service disabled, it still activated my license.

I was still testing this in the last few weeks with an unactivated Windows 11 and now I moved on to using Windows 10 Pro Business Edition. This ISO supposedly uses KMS server activation instead of HWID and so far it stayed consistent with no floatiness.

I also got this video recommended and I was shocked at how this looks like floaty mouse input with at least 0.5 seconds of delay:

You can use, let we call it unnoficial Windows, and, it could be fine. The question is for how long, this risk you are taking by yourself, and if you speak about it, you must give some caution to people, that's you are using it by your own risk.

i have win 10 activated when i disable most of the services,i get this watermark down in the right corner,if i dont click on cs2.exe properties and check disable fullscreen optm.when i play the game i see the watermark in the game,but when i click on it, i dont see it in game anymore,for performance i cant tell the diff.maybe do benchmarks/test before and after watermark?
