Went back to Windows -- despaired of getting linux apps to do what I need, and tired of living in a Windows VM.

Welcome back. If one needs Windows, then the simplest way is use Windows as a primary OS.
Windows can be deeply rooted in our life (personal & professional).
Anyway, it was an interesting adventure, for sure.:giggle:(y)

To me, Kubuntu or eventually MX. The rest is not interesting to me.

Hi shmu, so are you just using the Windows 10 enhanced profile with SRP? Runs pretty smooth?
Hi, I am not using any particular profile, but my SRP settings are like this:
Default security level: Disallowed
Enforcement: Skip DLLs
Block sponsors: 87

It runs very smooth for me.

I think the main difference between this and "Windows 10 enhanced profile" is that I have more sponsors blocked.
