    My Linux install and Windows install were on different drives and Windows still managed to fuck my windows install by messing up the secure boot enrollment somehow when I did updates. I wasn’t able to fix it and had to completly reinstall Linux. I turned secure boot off so it shouldn’t happen again but still… that happened.

      I dual boot and haven’t had an issue like that, yes I know I’m not everyone

      Also isn’t secure boot enrollment easy to fix just be re-enroling through commands

      I’m familiar with Linux having commands for it and I think Windows has its equivalent commands as well

      I’m familiar with re-enrolling secure boot because of fixing a broken akmods on my fedora install and years ago before dual booting when I was back on Windows I accidentally fucked up secureboot

        Apparently not. I know how to do it but it didn’t work. I spent 2 days troubleshooting and asking for help on their discord but got nowhere.
