Edit: Yo, I'm not saying this is gonna happen. I just want to say that Windew's UX sucks ass.
Just hours of your time as some random miniscule feature you were reliant upon without realizing it until it was missing, then have to look up a dozen different fixes using some stone aged console commands, none of which actually fix your issue...
This is my current experience with pop os. Took a while searching and digging through age old threads to figure out how to fix Rivals so it actually launches, then more searching to fix an issue I was having with the screen blacking out, and it's going to be more searching to figure out why audio keeps tearing while I'm full screened. It's a pain trying to make things compatible, so much so I'm extremely tempted to switch back to Windows 10 despite it hitting EOL this year. I really don't like having to waste my personal time making something work when there's an incredibly easy alternative where everything works always (aside from hardware issues)
Edit: especially peeved about trying to fix ffxiv. I want my shaders back >:(
I had tried mint years ago, and gave up when I couldn't even get my extra mouse buttons to work. I'm not going back to 1995 with a shitty 2-button
Did u try installing the driver for ur mouse lol
Hurr durrr... Yes I did.
That is pretty much my experience when I have to use a windows machine at work. Sorry, the powershell command is how long? Just got this from ChatGPT, no idea if it works and I am not booting windows to test it.
Bash: grep -iRl "test"
Powershell: Get-ChildItem -Recurse | Select-String -Pattern "test" -CaseSensitive:$false | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Path -Unique
Which is why people use the GUI for pretty much everything. Linux demands you use archaic commands to do anything useful.
Is there a decent way of doing that in the GUI in windows? One of the more common commands I use at work which is the only time I use Windows. Rather than the PowerShell I usually use WSL for it currently because there are usually a few other things I will want to do after as well.
