It removes Windows and installs Arch.

When it comes out I'll boot up win 10 on a VM and try it. I would think there will be a safeguard.

Tried it on a separate ramdisk partition where I stored my temporary download files and it deleted all except the system stuff (recycle bin/temp)

I assume it would do quite a bit of damage to a C: partition

Would theoretically remove the entire tree up to the rootfs folder in the user's directory. You'd need to reinstall ubuntu for windows or whatever it's called.
