Windows 10 Update Prank for the CE

Description

If you don't like TI-OS updates, why not install Windows 10 update?

To exit, press and hold the keys that correspond to the letters V, I, and M.

Transfer WINUPDTE.8xp and SANSFONT.8xv to your calculator and run prgmWINUPDTE. Note that there is a failsafe if SANSFONT.8xv is not present, because unlike Microsoft, I don't want to accidentally brick your devices with a defective update.

If you'd like to redistribute, modify, remix, or republish this program or the font, feel free to do so. Crediting me is not required. The source code and the font are included for you to play around with.

Have fun!

its ok I mean funny as a prank but you cant exit the program once your enter it you have to reset it to exit the program.

While this is in many ways an improvement over Windows 8.1 CE, I can't help but notice some glaring issues.
Windows requires at least 32 GB to install, but the calculator has only 3 MB. This leaves a little less than -32 GB of space left on the calculator for non-OS files.
This installer seems to be harder to exit than VIM and I'll never escape. It's been updating for about 3 weeks now and I would like to be able to finally do my math homework without risking corrupting the install.
A solid 6/10; much better than Vista.
