Windows 10 1809+ or Windows 11. Install per user with no admin needed, or grab the portable zip and run it from any folder. The beta isn't code-signed yet, so SmartScreen may ask you to click More info → Run anyway.

Three shells

Each shell is a whole look, not a skin: its own colours on every screen, its own icons, its own sounds and its own way of moving around. Switch between them live in Settings › Display. Your apps, games, files and settings come with you.

Channels shell: a grid of glossy channel tiles Dashboard shell: lowercase sections above a mosaic of flat tiles Media Bar shell: a row of categories crossed by a column of items
