Ok, but my point is that, if you want them to switch to Linux and because you like it and seem to hate Windows, I think that’s a reasonable assumption, treating them poorly will not make that better for anyone. They won’t want to put forth the effort and as a primarily Windows user and having tried Linux on many occasions, I can say it can be a daunting task especially when you need to use the command line. In the past I can honestly say that I have had a lot of help from very knowledgeable and friendly Linux users. But please don’t deny that Linux users aren’t just a little bit elitist.

In fact I can already picture the current Linux community complaining about the state of Linux if it were to skyrocket in popularity. Suddenly it would be like, all these stupid Windows users coming to Linux, ruining the experience. Companies trying to profit off of it. I liked it better when it was a small community.

And that’s why they don’t switch to Linux.

Groovy. Thanks.

What makes it better?

So this would replace grub?

Oh I see. Yeah, I would prefer not to chance it security-wise. Which is funny because Microsoft IS the security risk.

Ok. Great.

Ok. Thanks.

Probably. It was a while ago.

Thank you.

Thanks but Fusion 360 says it will not work after January 1 on Windows 10. I might be able to migrate to FreeCad but I don’t have time to figure that out any time soon, plus I’m sure there are some games I’m going to be playing that the net says won’t work on Linux.

Can you elaborate a bit. I don’t understand the connection between the undersized Windows partition and the problem with a distro. Also is the fix to manually increase the size of that partition?

So should bitlocker be disabled?

Thanks.

Thanks. You rock!

How do you do that, specifically in the US?

I’m sorry, but who else is there to vote for?

This was my concern. So if I boot into Windows and it does a mandatory update, currently, it can’t effect the Linux install if it’s on a different physical drive? Do I have that correct?

Awesome. Thanks.

Thank you for your post. I think I will use two different drives and hopefully use Windows as little as possible.
