    You can’t bullshit me man. I ‘ve been using solving peoples’ issues with Windows before I ever downloaded a Linux distro.

    Most of the problems average users won’t see with windows is because they buy it preinstalled while they have to install linux themselves. So they 'll be spared being unable to install AMD gpu drivers on a fresh Win 10 install if they made the mistake of not installing them before connecting the machine to the internet and Win Update fucking things up.

    However windows update will get them later. Windows start menu refused to work after an update on a friends’ pc. Or it will be fail to apply an update and failing with no troubleshootable information only to fail again on next reboot and again and again. Or explorer crashing hundreds times a second causing users to have a black screen after login.

    You are technically right in that the average user will not use the terminal (or registry, or booting to safe mode), they will pay someone else to do that or cope with it.

      Sounds like the problem is between the keyboard and the chair because I’ve never had issues installing AMD drivers on Windows 10, never had Windows update issues and so on.

      Maybe you would be better off getting a iPad.

        Kiddo fuck off. I 've installed them plenty of time as well, still it’s a common issue mainly due to windows update. I obviously fixed that as well as plenty of shit you probably either never seen or pretend you didn’t.

          Funny how it’s never been an issue on all my AMD setups even the ones where I fucked around with the Windows install to make it lighter.

          I’ve been using Windows since 3.0, so you’re the one who can fuck off calling me a kiddo.

            I never said I had a problem in my AMD rigs either, but you obviously can’t read. I ‘ve encountered those issues on others peoples’ PCs that they asked me to fix.

            You obviously have less experience in fixing windows’ issues since you think they do not exist. If you knew how to Google you could find many many people having issues in Windows, many of those remaining unresolved in some case even after applying either a manufacturer or MS provided fix.

            I called you a kiddo because you use childish insults like PEBKAC, if you want to insult somebody do it in the open.
