Media center and game launcher for Windows in the style of PS4's UI.
The goal of this project is to build an entire Shell replacement for Windows with the focus on gaming.
This Shell replacement can be used on any Desktop, Laptop or Portable device that runs Windows 10 or 11 x64.
Beta releases do not disable any Windows features like the Taskbar or Explorer, they're both still accessible in any case.
OrbisPro is on a BETA stage and some bugs may occur while running the application.
Pleas read the Wiki on how to use OrbisPro: https://github.com/SvenGDK/OrbisPro/wiki/First-Run
