The logo in the infobox is the old one. It is repeated below in the History section as 'logo until 2021'. Shouldn't the new logo be in the Infobox then? -- Rsrikanth05 (talk) 07:03, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Done The infobox was vandalized on 9 July 2023. --Dexxor (talk) 08:22, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Can the software be downloaded for personal use at home, with no one else accessing it? If so, what would be the requirements to get it functioning properly? Would I need to download other software, or have a huge hard drive? I usually use a 1 TB SSD laptop with 32 GB RAM. I've got about 600 MB free. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 12:58, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
