You say that as if it’s an excuse. No program should ever overwrite an existing filesystem without explicit consent from the user.
During my distro hopping phase of 2011, I tried out a distro called IP Fire. It wiped out my whole drive on boot.
I still have that laptop, hoping one day I’ll retrieve that data.
That is a shitty design and for an outfit a big as Microsoft, I feel that it is intentional
What is this con-cent you speak of? Some kind of… negative currency? A bad smell?
Overwrite existing filesystem?
