Why not just install WSL if you need whatever Linux shit on windows? Yeah I agree though I hate Linux shills

I really wish there was an alternative to Windows that was exactly like Windows 7 but with support for all the new shit

I somehow managed to fuck up nvidia drivers on windows once. Tried complete driver wipe and reinstall 10+ times until nvidia installer started detecting the card again.

WSL is windows subsystem for linux, it allows you to have a full say ubuntu installation accessible on your normal windows PC, accesible through terminal

update from OP
just managed to install the drivers again after 1 fucking hour, turns out it was actually the cache and not the repos being down, silly trusting the stupid terminal, anyways fuck linux (and windows too)

dunno about him but for me the point of it was to not have to deal with Windows and its retarded bullshit anymore. WSL would defeat the entire purpose of it because Windows is still there.

Also Nvidia anything is a pile of rotting dogshit no matter what OS you use
