I looked at the source code, and there was a bunch of binary encoded payloads, that loaded other binary encoded payloads, that called out to external resources. It might be fine, it might not. But I noped out of it.
I'm okay with the activate Windows watermark, at least I know I only have to worry about Microsoft

Microsoft considers it safe to use.
Can you please tell me which binary payload you found considering?
