Welcome to the CoreGUI Wiki.
CoreGUI is a freeware Desktop Environment project by danos.cloud, cloud Lillith Platform and Maintainers. This is also commonly used for PC Techs in remote support and is a valuable tool if you ever need to work in Service Mode / Backstage mode. It can also be used to recover installations where explorer refuses to start or has been compromised.
This software was originally developed after a faulty install of Windows caused Explorer to constantly crash. CoreGUI was initially built during this issues lifetime and was completed by launching VS from CMD and then building the project from there.
CoreGUI is proprietary software but can be freely reverse engineered and modified as long as modified forms are not redistributed, licensed or otherwise sold/leased.
Here you can find out information about the CoreGUI Project.

Note: Users running 1.2.4 Non-arm versions should upgrade to 1.2.4-arm. This can be done by first upgrading to 1.2.4-666, then installing build 667-upgrade-to-arm. This will allow you to then upgrade to the latest version of CoreGUI.
Note: Maintainers other than cloud Lillith Platform should also be considered forks, these may or may not follow the primary CoreGUI code-base, but can offer better features than mainstream arm/enterprise builds.
Note: As of latest CoreGUI Enterprise builds, F1/Dock Menu can self-adapt and automatically add Supported Applications to the menu.
