When they’re not installed correctly, you can get air leaks that make it massively more expensive to heat or cool your home.
Not the most annoying, but the most stupid and simple: The fact that even in windows 10 (not sure about 11), you couldn’t set custom keyboard shortcuts for volume up and down. I have had the right Ctrl+shift+up/down arrows bound to the volume up/down, since i started using Linux as my desktop fulltime over 10 years ago, and windows still won’t let you do that out of the box.

ITT people who didn’t/couldn’t install Windows via Rufus, and/or don’t know how to set up an OS
Being told I should switch to linux
Sometimes friends, in their curiosity, come up to me and ask me, Jordan Belfort-style, “Sell me this pen Linux.” Why do I like it so much, they wonder?
And I always tell them:
"Linux is like… the vegan OS. (bear with me) Mac and Windows people don’t really care about OSes. People who switch to Linux either find they couldn’t be assed to deal with it, or they love it, and those who love it love it. Then they always tell people lol.
A good thing though: because everyone’s such an opinionated nerd, the lateral set of problems you run into won’t be ‘solved’ by random Microsoft Forums /sfc scannows or arcane regedits, but by a nut who debugged the entire thing 30 minutes after the bug came to exist to find a workaround. True story.
Buuuut Linux is more of a lateral movement in terms of problems, it’s just a tool after all. You solve Microsoft Recall and start menu ads but run into new but tiny annoyances. I find Linux problems easier to fix than Windows ones because of the nerd army thing but if your Windows setup works for you, it works and that’s really all that’s important. If you do start Linuxing though you’ll learn a lot just by osmosis."
And they usually laugh and decide to keep their routines in place. Don’t hate me vegans.
I can’t launch minecraft without first opening the microsoft app store signing out, then signing back in.
