“Win10 has cost me about 10k now in forced upgrades AND NOW I have a “an error is detected” at every boot up with no fix in sight. F MS. But I’m stuck using Win 10.”
I had an update that didn’t download right and it crashed my hard drive.
Luckily my important stuff was kept on a portable hard drive. I now use Ubuntu. It has some issues but at least the operating system is cheap.
Linux Mint with VirtualBoxes for various flavors of Windows. I have the occasional lockup but since I ditched the SSDs and went back to a spinning HD all has been well of late. It could be that Firefox got fixed. The nice part is no reboots with updates.
