  • Yes, I have heard that windows likes to be on its own drive. I’ve also never had any problems with it erasing grub unless I was installing windows after Linux.

    I would recommend setting windows to the UTC timezone so it doesn’t fuck with the PC’s system clock.

    I still recommend dual booting over VM if you have to interface with any peripherals.

    Dual booting sometimes can result in other hardware interface problems, or solve them. They’re not common, but keep an eye out. For instance I had a laptop once where the wifi kill switch only worked in windows, and if you pressed it in Linux, you’d have to reboot into windows to toggle it back on.
