I've experienced this on many Windows machines. It's a combination of memory issues, little programs breaking here and there, forced updates, and stuff I frankly don't understand. Together, they very frequently necessitate a reboot after 2-3 days. > If this is actually true, there is something seriously wrong with your install This is the problem. It's very easy for stuff to go wrong with a Windows install. They deteriorate w/time. Why do you think so many times we end up just re-formatting a family member's machine? I've had to do that many times, even when malware wasn't an issue. I've never hard to reformat a Linux machine for such issues, even though I've been primarily on Linux for well over a decade. |

None of the 3 Windows machines in my house reboot other than for monthly updates.
Actually, if you count my Xbox as "running Windows", I do have to reboot that slightly more often than once a month!
But seriously, now days a PC is a front end for a web browser, steam games, Adobe suite, and Office.
My current Win10 install started off as a Windows 8 install many years back.
