You're a fucking garbage collector, anon. I'm primarily using loonix, but i also have Windows install and it works just as well as always, no matter how "old" it is.
I do pacman -Qe > Installed_Packages

Kek, I managed 6 windows computers at work and they've had windows 7 on them for at least 5 years and they run great. And this is with the worst people you could imagine using them.
You're just one of those people who instead of trying to find the root of a problem, you prefer to destroy it. You have no creativity or desire to understand the world. You just want everything to work out the box, and if it doesn't you destroy it.
