    In older technical preview builds of Windows 10, the timebomb would deactivate the OS's license, several key system files were also signed with digital certificates which would also conveniently expire, including the boot loader itself, UWP apps would refuse to open...

    In essence, the OS would self-destruct.

    Is this also the case with current Dev Channel builds, such as last week's 21313?
