You are not used to dealing with bugs, it seems. I would say Linux Desktop users are generally always fiddling around. It also depends on your specific hardware setup.

regedit.exe, my favorite GUI app 🤣

Okular for forms. qpdf just for quick viewing and reading. PDF arranger for rearranging pages. pdftk (CLI) for some serious work on PDFs. Exiftool and qpdf (both CLIs) for metadata and linearizing.

Try Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC. There is an official evaluation .iso out there. Keys for full version cost very little. Enterprise 10 is the ONLY Windows out there which is not complete bullshit.

Aren’t you going to catch a cold?
