Every time Windows updates itself, my Linux disappears. Actually, it’s just hidden, only the boot menu was overwritten. You need a computer maintenance technician to make a new boot menu. I use a USB stick with a live Linux with automatic boot repair tools.

Recently, Windows has become resistant to Boot Repair Disk. Now I have to open computer firmware by tapping “Esc” right after power-up, then select “Boot options”, then “Linux”.


EU must ban all US-made smart products for its own safety. All closed-source software and electronics that can be used for strategic manipulation and sabotage – Google, Apple, Amazon, all of it.

We have functional, clunky open-source software that could easily be fitted for any purpose with the money we waste propping up foreign monopolies sabotaging us. Europe has taken a huge risk. I suspect bribery.

    I ran a virtualbox vm too but for installing an old game I want to scavenge the resources from. It went so slow that I ended installing atlas on another laptop just to have have it done “this day”. So I don’t have many suggestions sorry XD. I ditched the photoshop too for gimp so there is barely a “turning back”. Most of the games that I wan to play seems to work in linux anyway.

      Oh ok. I thought you were saying you had better performance on windows on VMs so I was just wondering if I had missed that due to the host software or something
