Greetings! So recently, i spent a few hours coding software. After i was done and i shut off my pc, i noticed both of the ethernet lights were on and blinking. Does this mean that Microsoft is sending data to their servers before the PC fully shuts off? I am scared that this might be the thing it does. How can i get rid of this issue? I have no idea if it's related to Windows or the PC itself.

Why windows for pyinstaller and compiling?

    Well as you may know, when you try running pyinstaller on linux, it packs the .py file into a linux exectuable, not a windows executable.

    Very interesting! Thanks for the heads up. I didnt know that. 7 years ago, they already used wine for that. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44014390/how-to-generate-a-windows-executable-using-pyinstaller-on-linux#45065125

    If all else fails you could also use a vm. Thats probably less dangerous than dual booting because of windows not playing nice with grub.
