To make this issue less of a pain, put the OS's on separate drives.
Just don't delete any weird files that show up on a tertiary drive (will delete Windows disk). -They can be hidden and require privilege to remove.
To make this issue go away, remove Windows entirely.
Lmfao.
Agreed, but some people do actually need windows. I only have windows for quite literally one game. lolSure, but that's something I regret doing. Reverting back from ext4 and BTRFS drives without losing data was a pain. I did consider installing a flip switch for separate drives, but using BIOS to select the drive was simple enough after learning the lesson of deleting the wierd files that showed up on a tertiary drive from this method.
Or never update it.
Yep. Windows behaves like a pissed drunk asshole in shared systems. Better kick that idiot out.
Kinda lol, but not purposely. I read an article on the last incident involving secure boot and can't say I blame Microsoft for it. It's not like it's them providing the bootloader or instructions either. -There's also the solution of simply keeping the drives separate and using BIOS instead.
For a long time, the worst thing about having Linux was what windows would do while I was dual booted. Ditching windows completely years back has made my Linux life so much more pleasant
