    I am using a 20gbps ssd with windows to go on it for my windows install so that when I plug in the ssd I boot to windows and when I restart and unplug I boot to linux, might be a solution for you?

      I have kept windows on a separate ssd, but I find dual booting very disruptive, I don’t want to reboot to change between tasks, I’ve tried it already in the past and it sucks.

        This is why I am unfortunately back on windows. I use a couple programs everyday, and unfortunately they do not run on Linux. And there is not a usable alternative either.

        I was rebooting to windows, doing what I had to, and then rebooting again. But it is just so disruptive and not user friendly.

      I haven’t tried side loading windows to be fair. I was trying to move away completely from the windows environment.
