    If only. Usually my Manjaro partition is chill, but the moment I step foot in Windows 11, it throws a pissy fit and breaks something it shouldn’t even have access to.

    If Linux just calls you a cheater, Microsoft sets you and everything you love on fire to make a point.

      Windows: “Looks like your bootloader was corrupted. I went ahead and reinstall it. No need to thank me, I was just doing my job. What’s that? Grub? Nope, never heard of that guy.”

        Windows: “While updating I found out that some weird thing was set as first boot priority. I fixed that by setting it to myself. You are welcome!”

        at this point I’m just going to have my hard drives externally and just have windows on one and Linux on the other and depending on which one I want to boot I connect it and disconnect the other

      Garuda / win11 dualboot here.

      When I go back to Garuda I find my display settings out of whack. Usually 800x640 resolution and desktop image back to default.

      When I go back to win11 i find the timezone changed.

      So dual boot is annoying for both in my experience

        In my case, I got a little too confident and messed around with drivers to get stable situation to work. Oops.

        But in the times windows kills something… aside from messing with my boot loader (always install windows first, then Linux), it also managed to break my wifi drivers to the point that it would blue screen my windows AND prevent Manjaro from booting (and once fixed, not connect to Internet via Wi-Fi).
