What is retail mode?
It’s the regular mode where you boot into your dashboard to start and play games.
You can pay to have access to developers mode where you have more freedom to do things, like installing emulators.
Thank you for an actual response and explanation. Anyone who has actually used google over the past few years should know “googling it” isn’t always helpful anymore. Besides, maybe we actually want to be the place where people find answers.

There’s also the simple social factor which gets underestimated. I used to get worked up at work when people would ask questions about stuff I had written documentation about, until I understood that some folk just want that little social connection. They want a person to communicate something to them, whether they’re concsiously aware of it or not.
It’s also fairly common for people to just not be that good at searching for things. You have to word things in specific ways and learn what kind of sources to avoid and ones to trust. So asking people who do can be a huge timesaver.
Well when Karen asks for the 40th time how to add a new user to the system, Karen’s getting referred to the documentation.
you have to word things in specific ways
Googling the exact question asked by OP gets a direct and real answer, though. So that’s not really applicable here.

No, this is Patrick!

Uh, Patrick, that’s the name of the restaurant.
The fact that they’re not just banning user accounts but doing full on console bans is absolute bullshit. Come on guys.
It’s a 15 day suspension
Damn you Nintendo (even if the real reason for banning emulators is different)
Part of it is probably the perceived legal liability, but another is Microsoft sees the user interest in this type of games and wants to make money off of it. That’s why this announcement comes shortly after the release of Antstream Arcade (which has been added to game pass so they make money from sales there in addition to the portion they take from each purchase). It’s some of the most anti-consumer behavior we’ve seen from Microsoft in recent memory.

It’s the same company that makes Windows… Always worth remembering.
If you’re referring to forcing Edge, W11 sysreq, and insisting on having trackers turned on, all of these are combatable due to the openness of the OS. Xbox is mostly a closed platform, so it can’t be changed even if you wanted to.
