i installed manjaro and tbh I don’t think I’m going to touch windows again unless I have to. my only unsolvable issue so far is (I think) my PC is having a hard time detecting Linux when I restart my computer. it just sometimes will tell me to restart and change to a bootable drive through BIOS.
You may need to double check how grub is configured (set it to UEFI if necessary, legacy mode etc) and or updating it. You will want to update the firmware also and try setting grub at the top of the boot list
I honestly don’t even know what grub is :(
I always loved computers and took quite a few computer science etc classes and went to my local tech college for IT while still in high school. but now I seriously feel like an old grandma trying to learn all this new fangled computer stuff!!
You will probably hear a lot of hate about Manjaro but I absolutely love it. I have an AMD/nvidia laptop (possibly one of the worst combinations to have according to legend) and Manjaro ended up being the most stable distro for me. It is Arch adjacent but comes with sane defaults. Then I found my-laptop specific kernels and now I am in heaven. Uptime is at 21 days but still buttery smooth 165Hz KDE6 Wayland goodness every time I use it.
I felt the exact same how you do now, once I got it up and running how I liked it, I (almost) never booted Windows again.
