    In my experiences, it’s Windows Update in the background causing the lag. Doing it’s shitfuckery things, planting it’s shitfuckery seeds, waiting for restart season to trigger the bloom…

    It is funny though, “Updates! You need to restart!”

    “Oh, okay!”

    Restart > GRUB auto boots to Linux.

    I know it’s a future me problem, but I’m in Windows for work like once a month these days. That’s fine.

      You just reminded me.

      At one point I had Windows take up two drives, one for boot and one for games. However, I only ever really used it for this one piece of software that I couldn’t get working on Linux, so I nuked it and reinstalled Windows on the smallest drive I have, just for that software.

      Two weeks later I got the software working on Linux, and I completely forgot I even have a Windows partition up until now. It’s been months.
