In my old PC I had a Windows M.2 drive that I booted to years ago to run games when Proton hadn't taken off big yet.

I'm scared to even install it in my new PC these days. I still want the files but, shit. Wondering if it's worth it lol.

I guess I'll mount it read-only under Linux and grab what I need, then wipe that mf.

I have to keep Windows installed for modding my games (Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Kingdom Hearts, etc.) and I just got Tiny11, then use ChrisTitusTools to tweak it to be at least somewhat more respectful towards me.

If modding isn't something you plan on doing, NUKE THAT POS! :-P

🫡 Aye! I only paid like $10–20 for the Windows 10 license key anyway, which was then turned into Windows 11 on software upgrade. No big loss! 😁
