"skills in windows" is a hilarious thing to type. Merry Christmas.

    Sigh, why, why do you do feel the need to put other's down over something as irrelevant as an operating system?

    But since Windows require zero skills, then even you may stand a chance to solve the following tasks that I have had to deal with within Windows.

    1. List all users in the local admin group of all workstations, if a group is part of the local admin group, expand it and list individual users, oh and some users/groups are still on an old domain.
    2. Whitelist a new USB device in GPO.
    3. Make a report of all computers in the organization, get the current system model number, memory, storage space, free storage space, check weather or not the computer is ready for Windows 11, sort the list by department and primary user.

    These weirdos have Linux as their entire identity and it’s become all consuming for some of them.

    I just block anyone who is shilling Linux too much as it gets boring quickly, and I use Linux myself as of recently but it isn’t all that amazing and it requires a good amount of configuration, contrary to what people on here will tell you.

    I'm in IT too. My experience is that if you use Linux at home and Windows at work you just end up skilled at both. At one point I was even using a Macbook at work (wouldn't have even been a consideration if WSL was just a little better), using a Windows jump server or a VM for my Windows-y ops, and I became skilled at all 3 OS's.

    All of that is to say that your skill won't decrease if Windows is still being used, especially if you're using it in a professional context.

    This is really the wrong sub thread to discuss this, this was my reply to someone laughing at the concept of Windows skills.

    As for you comment, I am glad that it works like that for you, it doesn't for me.
