@Dashrender Ugh Powershell - Don't even. If I can avoid using it I do..

The reality is that us Windows Admins need to stop avoiding it. 😞

sigh agreed... but I protest...

Hey, getting me to use the Linux CLI is a step forward,.. I know (a few of) the commands now,.. while I just may no recall the context. I was able to find the mount that was at 100% usage yesterday using df -h... so that is a move forward..

The Linux system gets the use 99% of the time and needs priority as to performance and what not. The Windows install is just for gaming and is not even my main gaming machine. Just a secondary one. And I've lived with zero Windows access for most of a year, not a big deal.
