I have a seperate drive and I physically unplug my windows drive when I'm not using it. when I do, plunplug Linux then plug in windows, hate myself for a while, then revert back.

I refuse to let microslop even see the Linux install since I know they are malicious criminal company and will tamper with shit just because.

I just kept them on separate drives, but you make a good point that one shouldn't underestimate Microslop's ability to fuck with your shit.
