    If you have 1 backup, you have no backups; If you have two backups you have one backup.

    Just make a backup of your data, it’s the easiest way. Can it be done without a backup? Yes, but it’s complicated and error prone. Better go the safe route.

      Yea but that’s boring, it’s more fun to YOLO it! Shrink the windows partition from Linux, create the new Linux partition and install, then move everything over from the NTFS partition to Linux, delete it then expand the Linux partition.

      Ez-Pz and the added pressure makes it more fun! Lol
