For me it’s not a specific app or game. I keep Windows as a fallback and for troubleshooting when someone says, it only happens in Windows.
Also, printing is another one. I’ve generally had better luck from Windows, although right now I can’t print from it at all! I’m using my phone instead, so that argument isn’t holding up too well. lol However, sometimes it’s the reverse, and having Windows allows an alternatvie printing option.
So much of the world still runs on Windows that it makes it practical to at the least keep it around.
What about you? What’s the one thing keeping Windows in your life?
I used to use Adobe Audition as multitrack recorder and mixer (on a pretty fast HP laptop) which works pretty good with my 16 analog inputs (rackunits).
Since a while I dual boot with Ubuntu-studio and use Ardour instead so within a forseeable time I can wipe windows from that laptop. (b.t.w. windows 10 on that machine without networking ofcourse)
Oh, maybe I keep it for GuitarRIg (Native Instruments) until I have a Linux solution for that.
I don’t dual boot but I do have a Windows laptop just to have. Once a week I power it up and check for updates then shut it down. Not even really sure why I have it other than to have it.
