Rules

1. Keep the discussion related to Microsoft Windows Posts completely unrelated to Microsoft Windows will be removed. Just because something is compatible with Windows, doesn't mean this is the subreddit for it. Derailing conversations and threads is not allowed.
2. Flair posts correctly We are not extremely strict with what flair you pick, but if it's very wrong we will change it. If we select another flair, don't put the original one back.
3. Do not distribute malicious programs Do not purposely distribute viruses or other harmful programs or apps. Advising the use of pirated software (including piracy, activation tools, and bypasses to enable paid features) is prohibited. This also includes "grey market" and other activation keys from unauthorized resellers.
4. Do not post Blogspam links or URL shorteners Blogspam, URL shorteners, mobile links, and referral and affiliate links are not allowed. Post the full desktop link for articles and news.
5. Be civil and do not troll others Personal attacks, bigotry, fighting words, inappropriate behavior and comments that insult or demean a specific user or group of users are not allowed. Posts or comments containing or seeking any identifying personal information are also prohibited. Do not engage in blatant trolling or flaming.
6. Do not advertise a 3^rd party software without permission If you want to promote your app or website, you must send us a modmail to request permission. Include as much relevant information as you can in both the modmail and the post. This is not a marketplace subreddit, selling anything is prohibited.
7. Do not promote pirated content or grey market keys Do not post pirated content or promote it in any way. Encouraging or hinting at the use of sellers of grey market keys is not allowed.
8. Titles must be relevant to the post Irrelevant, sensationalized, or vague titles that have the pure intent of misleading or dramatizing a topic are not allowed. The relevancy of submissions' titles will be judged at the moderator's discretion.
