    Should have not trusted a third party to install proprietary code into the kernel. It’s not a Windows issue directly, they have a Linux version too, but anything that allows third parties to put proprietary code into your kernel and automatically update it without your approval is untrustworthy.

      They have a Linux version, but this happened only to the Windows one… Coincidence?!

        Yes, coincidence.

        It’s not like they haven’t caused Linux outages in the past.

        Probably coincidence? It sounds (???) like this is a pretty simple fix on Windows.

        The number of times I have borked my Linux machines so they wouldn’t boot is, well, greater than zero for sure. Any operating system can be bricked to the point of requiring manual intervention by software with elevated privileges.

          The simple fix: turn it off and on up to 15 times

          The simple fix 2: delete system32

      Counterpoint: Windows bad.

        I can’t disagree with you there.
