If that doesn’t fix it, I’m going to format and restore with a backup. I have better things to do.
- xfer 8y agoOr you can just use a proper linux distro that allows systemwide rollbacks like nixos.
- mrguyorama 8y agoI just realized, wait, windows has had that feature since at least 2000! Is that not standard on linux distros?
- lenocinor 8y agoBut doesn't malware like to hide in there in Windows? I've had it turned off for years on my Windows machines for that reason.
- mrguyorama 8y agoThat sounds like a poor strategy over just running Windows Defender or the like
- pknopf 8y agoOr, use Darch with Ubuntu (or whatever you want). https://godarch.com https://godarch.com
- seba_dos1 8y agoOf course it depends, but I'd say that formatting and restoring from backup takes way longer than fixing an average system hick-up - provided that you have access to meaningful logs, which is where GNU/Linux works pretty well.
