Downloaded all files from uupdump site and at 5% of windows server 2025 installation it says "installation failed and that's it" have no idea what to do :/
Funny, just ask Microsoft how "official" UUP dump in itself is. Nothing of this stuff is official in any way (and we all know it), and we should be glad that it works like it does. And he is referred to as the package maintainer, not as a dev, AFAIK. Putting the package together is hardly development, but still work, and I'm thankful for it, as I always prefer local applications to websites. The uupdump project itself is truly amazing, too bad parts of it are now a black box due to these copycats. I just hope the local website code will not stop working anytime soon...
Official in this context is that the local app is based on code that he never made himself, when the website seized to exist because some german turd stopped it for whatever reason, the original dev whatever127 made a local server and made it available but at some point the idea was brought back alive to get the website up and running again and the devs wanted to kill off the app and all copies of the website by making code private, and because whatever127 is a very nice person he allowed the local app to be kept alive (remember?). but now it is all based on that old code and the devs don't want the app to contain the official title, since the website is working flawlessly ever since.
To my knowledge, he never claimed that, it's Open Source code from the git repo. Just the website code cannot be updated for obvious reasons. I do not claim to know the cause of luzea's actions, either, but that's where the app comes in handy. MS could stop any uupdump website at any time, but they'll be having a hard time stopping the local app without making fundamental changes to the UUP itself. That would have been the worst decision, killing a working local app for a website that can go down at any time. Probably because he was the only one thinking further and knowing that a fallback is always nice to have. But even if not, the API and dump code it self is public, so, barring the website code itself, anyone could have made a new app eventually. The important parts are based on the latest git code. It works well enough. A valid claim, but your post sounded like sort of an attack. The right tone makes good music. Currently, but no one can predict its future. Besides, with the website code being a black box, how do you know there isn't any data mining or collection of data? Why should I trust that website more than my local app?
