      I wish it could be so, I need both for work. I have always required a laptop with two separate hdd slots, but Windows tends to mess up everything anyway, and then Linux get the blame for being unstable. I also have a fun thing where the RTC becomes out of sync because win and Linux handle time differently. This can mess up 2FA among other things, so that’s great😅

      I think Windows will have to go on a VM instead because it is so unstable.

        You can set Windows to use UTC for the hardware clock (or have Linux use local time shudder). Just need to set a registry key:

        Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
        
        [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]
        "RealTimeIsUniversal"=dword:00000001
