There was this problem. I downloaded the file for the FAF game, but it wouldn't open because it thought it would hurt my device and wanted me to open it through an app in the Microsoft store. Funny thing is, it's not in the Windows store.
The solution to this problem is much easier than I thought - this restriction can be disabled in the Windows settings.
I don't know if anyone can find this information useful

@danielmeyers Hi, i appreciate your help with with problem. Sorry, currently this project is on pause, because i am busy on work.

Eternal-

Firstly, i am alive
Secondly, I am not a supporter of any community (in connection with the recent events in this community), I pursue a purely personal interest as developer, and first of all develop myself, I help any community that needs help without crossing lines. I am in favor of testing the implementation of various technical capabilities.

So what is it about? Lets begin

Concept of Ethereal Multiverse Client for different community driven lobbies for SCFA

Features:

1. One client - Many servers

2. One client - Many lobbies across many servers

3. One client - Many matchmaking queues across many servers

4. One client - for everything and everyone

Work in progress, but we have got working multiple servers (screenshots) with players and games across servers

Note
From the users point of view, it would look like the first steps as they were in 2022. This is true, it is again a new fresh start of this interesting journey in an attempt to develop something useful with a different approach (again)
