Possible they passed away suddenly and a tech-illiterate family member threw them out while cleaning out their place. Not great there was no encryption but people often overlook making plans for their eventual death, we mostly just don't like to think about it.
They'd find it rather difficult to just download programs from random websites and run them, considering the file will not be marked executable by default and they can't just "download and double-click".
Yea... Exactly... Thanks for providing evidence for me.
People going out and downloading random crap from shady websites clogging up their windows install with malware are not going to spend any amount of time troubleshooting why the random crap they downloaded doesn't do anything when they double-click it. They likely won't even know what to search for to find the solution to their "problem".
Yup. Imo made the entire ui so much worse all in an effort to blur the line between macos and Windows.
Windows 10 already required 3rd party software for me to use it. Windows 11 was a complete no-go for me from the moment I saw it. I'm so glad my OS drive died last year, it was the push I needed to go Linux only.
meh. folder is 2 syllables, directory is like 4. I'm lazy. If someone gave me a clear one syllable alternative that others would know what I meant (even if while cringing), i'd probably start using that instead. I've tried just "dir", but no one ever knows wtf i'm saying.
I might should clarify that when using "dir" verbally no one knows what I'm saying, but maybe how I pronounce it in my head isn't how everyone else does, lol. In text it's plenty clear, imo.
There is a launch argument you can add in steam, '--skip-launcher' for bg3. You won't be able to change between the dx or vulkan clients though without the launcher, if that matters to you (probably not, but figured I'd mention it). I'd guess there is a similar option for Cyberpunk 2077, but haven't done it personally.
