dual booting anything with windows (including another copy of windows) is an insufferable nightmare caused by windows.
Not all instances were dual booting, nor are all of the problems I've encountered or described above related with dual booting.
👍 completely valid. just pointing out windows is a malicious cohabitant on a drive
Even among that I've varied. In one installation I have Windows sharing a drive, separate partition for Linux. In another computer they're on completely different drives.
