I’m considering switching to linux but I’m not a computer savvy person, so I wanted to have the option to switch back to windows if unforeseen complications (I only have 1 pc). Is it just a download on usb and install? And what ways can I get the product key or “cleaner” debloated versions.

    I’m only commenting this because you said you’re stuck on Win11 and not defending it, but…

    Using winget and Chocolately will make your app installation much better.

    Also, to reload your path variable in a PowerShell prompt you can run the following:

    $env:Path = [System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path","Machine") + ";" + [System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("Path","User")

    Again, your gripes are all legitimate, but these might help ease your pain.
