    I agree with you but you also aren’t doing them favors. Windows is not a secure or reliable platform.

      But it is, it’s very reliable. So long as users don’t install anything, and there’s a quality paid antivirus solution and windows 11 gets blocked then very little will affect these installs.

      As for security? Who cares. They’re checking email and using Facebook. They’re not running critical software, and as for reliability… Let me tell ya from an admin standpoint Linux is far from reliable, there’s a very good reason companies pay money for support.

        Yeah, no shit sherlock, if you don’t use YOUR computer, it’s never going to break.

          Trick is to try live off live USB mode, learn from old textbooks, pen and notepads and a phone with less than 1gb data, to record stuff. Now we call it hard mode, but really it’s “just the norms” haha

          You get really crap at typing keywords and Google image search and really good at looking through indexes and table of contents for the right chapter.

          What I meant in this case was spyware. My father in law no matter how much protection I put in place always manages to install SOMETHING. He’ll even override the antivirus telling him the app is suspicious. He only goes on stock sites and business crap and sees no ads. Its always a casino game or something stupid like that. No idea where it comes from

            Hmm, in my experience it always comes with an ad somehow… Nowadays there are ads that seems legit things 😂
