I have reinstalled Windows on my computer only once during two years of ownership.
So it's perfectly possible that you reinstalled at the right interval to coincidentally miss the worst of the performance drops. There are indeed techniques you can use to delay that performance issue, but it is inevitable you'll need to refresh at some point to actually avoid it.
So, I'll be interested to see how your performance is on that SSD after 2 solid years without a "Windows 10 Refresh" or reinstall.
It doesn't matter if even more than 3/4 of disk is untouched. This is exactly how Windows saves files on disk: sequentially, not giving a file space to grow.
Mm hmm. Like I said, I know that.
People experienced with computers can spot malicious emails...
Usually. Spoofing is getting harder to detect. Also, this doesn't account for drive-by viruses delivered via the web.
...spoofed websites can break also Linux.
Occasionally, although it actually takes a good bit of naïvety to get infected this way. I always train my clients on safety regarding installation sources, scripts, and when to not enter your password.
Or, as I explain it, "It's entirely possible to get malware on Linux, but you really have to work at it." (And then I explain what not to do.)
Like I said, I've been doing this for over a decade.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
