    They did not. In fact, Windows ships in S mode now, which means you can’t install ANYTHING outside of the appstore. Not even Office downloaded directly from Office(dot)com. You can turn S mode off, for now, but you need to (and I’m not shittin you) install an app from the appstore that disables S mode. But not without confirming that you’re serious several times, and read through fear mongering with a “you get viruses if you install outside the appstore” scare tactic.
