It was beautiful. The CPU usage sat at a cool 1%. Alex opened the browser to test the speed, but before he could type a URL, the webcam light flickered. A tiny, steady green dot. He hadn't opened the camera app.
He tried to Task Manager his way out, but the shortcut didn't work. The start menu wouldn't open. Slowly, a terminal window crawled across the center of his screen. White text began to scroll at a rhythmic, heartbeat pace. It wasn't code; it was a list of his own files.

As the progress bar crawled toward 100%, a strange sense of unease settled in. "Team ISO" was a name he’d seen before, but their official site had been dark for months. Who had uploaded this? He brushed the thought aside; the forum comments were filled with fire emojis and "Thanks, bro!" from users with generic avatars. The start menu wouldn't open
The PC didn't shut down when he held the button. It didn't even beep. The "Lite" version had stripped away everything—including his control.
