I abandoned Windows over 10 years ago, when a mandatory Windows 10 update rewrote by UEFI partition and messed up my dual boot setup. It took me an entire evening to fix, at which point I swore that no machine owned by me would ever run Windows again.

The more I hear about Windows 11 makes me think I really dodged a bullet there.

Windows has been doing this since forever.

Can confirm this has been happening since the simple BIOS+MBR days - after install Windows would just write MBR code to boot into the windows partition.
