Oh, fuck off with that. I’ve used Windows since the beginning, and the number of times the solution to a problem is “reinstall the whole marianne” is astounding. I’ve installed Windows thousands upon thousands of times, just because that was the fastest way to get someone working again than to try to sort that mess of an OS out, with absolutely no real support from the supplier of the OS than a few MVP articles that are utter stabs in the dark 90% of the time.
Your user that can’t send a file or fix Linux isn’t fixing Windows either, or even reinstalling it. And I’ll put an install of Ubuntu for a tech-illiterate person that does 99% of what every tech-illiterate user does on a system up against any Windows install. You know for a fact that install will be brought to its knees in a couple years and need to be blown out, and the Linux user will be merrily using some ancient Linux version a decade later, and it won’t run like dogshit.
