MODERATORS
On a regular version of Windows its impossible replace all functions with a launcher.
Microsoft would need to release the Xbox version of Windows to 3rd parties.
Of course, probably longer than you, dating back to Windows 98 running LiteStep. At some point something from Windows itself will nag. Be it the Windows Firewall displaying its Vista-era confirmation prompt, something in the old Control Panel needing attention (for a handheld gaming system Power Options come to mind), etc. And there are 3rd party things needed for gaming that are not required for your home theater like those monstrosities that are the auxiliary tools for hardware. I'm not aware of a single ROG Ally review that says that Amory Crate is absolutely seamless and that's from one of the biggest brands in PC gaming.
