I‘ve switched to Linux mint. 95% of my time I am using it instead of Windows and this is just because of that stupid kernel anti cheat software…

    The windows boot loader has a tendency to erase the GRUB for booting Linux, borking it as soon as you load into windows. It's probably because windows is still in dual boot.

    Edit: specifically, IIRC, it was windows update that borked it, but it always would auto-update when I opened it, so if you can find a way to guarantee windows never updates, power to you.

    Yeah I would assume so too but I can't drop windows and if I can't rely on dual booting to work it's not worth messing with. I have a laptop with bazzite on it but that only gets so far.
