We still have WD40, so still hanging on.
Before that new crap, Duct Tape, we Olde timers used bailing wire!
We would have killed for a wooden knob, we had to use chipped flint knobs, and let me tell you, the edges were sharp! if we changed the channel more than a few times a day our fingers wouldn’t heal for weeks!
Not Serutan? It’s natures spelled backwards...
AH! You've met my mom!

Do you have anything to add here?
I thought you were kidding.
Take off the computer case, find the disk drive, unplug it, unscrew it, remove it. Then take it outside and use the most destructive weapon you have, like a shotgun, AND SHOOT IT IN THE HEAD.
1. Strange Windows option fix:
It wouldn’t surprise me if there were other official Microsoft options people now have to checked such as:
“Prevent screen from jerking around”
“Prevent screen from flipping upside down”
It’s not unlike Facebook when it brings in new privacy settings which effectively removed the prior settings, leaving you to hunt and reset them.
2. If malware, download a free self-booting antivirus program and boot with that (and not your Windows). It can then scan your drives without the virus affecting it.
Avira and other antiviruses have generally free downloads that do this service. They have their own operating system (usually Linux).
Hope this helps.
The only time my computer went “upside down” was when I was in Communist China. I’m not particularly tech-savvy, and this freaked me out. Luckily a young designer on the trip had the patience to set it right.
But it happened more than once in China.
BTW, our university tech department did not let me take a normal computer to China in 2017 and 2019. The “student loaner” computer was completely stripped of all programs except those I’d need on the trip, like PowerPoint. The word was that the Chinese copied one’s whole drive when they had access.
