- Osiris 14y agoOne virtue of recent version of Windows is that system files have ACLs tied to "TrustedInstaller" and/or "System" so that even a user that's an Administrator cannot delete the files. You literally have to hack a login as SYSTEM or take ownership of the files. It's a big pain. Also, don't most Linux distros have protections in place so that "*" skips over ".", thus only deleting the contents of the current folder and not the entire system?
