ore completely bricked Windows installs than Linux. Don’t think I’ve ever managed to completely Bork a Linux install ex Everybody has different experiences.

I completely shattered my NixOS install by trying to activate Nvidia Prime on my laptop. Of course it was NixOS, so i could roll back from the boot loader. There was the time I used vim to edit /etc/sudoers on a remote VM. that was a joy.

If you screw up most of your core windows install DISM online cleanup will put most of it back.

Windows has more guard rails than say Debian or Ubuntu. But to each their own.

I mean you can remove all remote admin rights on Windows too haha, remote gives you way more opportunities screw stuff up.

But usually on Linux you can boot in single user or chroot in from the installer and unhose whatever you hosed. Windows you get dism and SFC and if they don't work there's really not anything you can do.
