why do people think they need to reinstall Windows every 6 months?
>>
>>107905911
Schizophrenics who don’t know about the cmd:
>DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

>>107905911
because back in the day Windows 98 and XP would get shitted up pretty easily

They like that new OS install smell.

Yeah there's multiple ways to repair Windows in 2026 without having to wipe the whole thing. It has server grade redundancy.

>>107905911
Viruses and malware from visiting sketchy websites.
I used to visit warez sites back in the xp and win7 days, get some weird trojan and have to reinstall.

Holy kek.

Its near impossible to brick System32 now unless its hardware failure
>>
>>107905911
That's nothing. I witnessed adults have to reinstall W95 every 2 weeks.

My windows 10 pc became incredibly unstable even though it had extended support and I repaired it and cleared the junk. It crashed every few hours. Installed linux mint on the ssd and it hasn't crashed at all so it wasn't hardware related.
Windows just sucks that bad.

>I tinkered and ran a bunch of random scripts from /fwt/ and my install broke

OCD.
Same reason I always restart the vidya I play. Delete saves and restart from scratch.
I love a clean slate.
I go crazy when I can't get a clean slate.

Core system components have been under strict lock and key since Vista.
you have to be really negligent or stupid to break Windows nowadays
>>
>>107906146
how do you finish a vidya if you're always restarting it everytime you play
unless you mean restarting it after you beat the game in which case no shit
>>
>>107905911
>Why do X feel the need to so some shit that they don't actually do but I'm just posting it anyway look at me
it's all so tiresome.
>>
i dont understand people that can reinstall os or phone every two weeks like nothing, the whole distro hopping bullshit
I am moving to a new install of windows cause
>new pc
>been using 10 education
and am paralyzed with having to reinstall so much shit and move files and all that

Especially never understood it on phones either, people talk about installing a new custom rom weekly like its nothing
>>
>>107905921
still was the case with w 8.1. didnt use 10 long enough in one shot to check that (had to format it more often than that because of these oh so wonderful impromptu updates. then i nuked the malware off my computer)
afaik, the biggest culprit- registry
>>
>>107906240
>how do you finish a vidya
That's the thing, I don't!
