content: could someone break down for me what the significance of this is?  Apps created to run under Windows 10's UWP (Universal Windows Platform) have been shown to be crackable, something some people (shills?) believed was not possible. UWP is MS's attempt at creating a unifying platform, in my opinion to phase out Win32.  can you use this to pirate games?  It's not a tool, they just have shown it's possible to do it.  can you use this to run crossplatform things?  UWP apps are crossplatform almost by design. A lot of crap is abstracted away but it's not like you can convert any program made in any platform into UWP just like that. I believe there's a Win32 to UWP convertor though.  does this allow tampering with programs with ease?  I guess, if they release the exploit. Anyway, it's seems you believe they released some special anti DRM utility or something. So far they just cracked a game.
