    Windows is literally designed to break multi-boot setups. Funny enough, multibooting on a Mac was never a big problem. Microsoft has more of a reason to cooperate here and they just can’t help themselves.

      My bet is it’s partially on purpose. They think they can keep you on Windows by doing this, but for me it just ensured I go 100% Linux.

        I think it’s worse. It’s negligence. If their OS works, they don’t care what it does to the rest of your computer.

          I think it started as negligence, but there’s no way they aren’t aware of it now and it’s willful too. At first it happened because they didn’t care, but now it happens because they like the result.
