Ideally, I would prefer to dual boot ( two different drives if necessary) Windows 11 and Linux Mint. From what I understand, the crap Microsoft is pulling now will prevent this. Is it because of bitlocker?

Either way, another option would be to dual boot windows 10 and Linux mint. I would keep Windows 10 offline, which is why I would prefer to dual boot Windows 11, since it and Linux would both be online.

So are either of these scenarios realistic?

I’d like to get answers before my post is deleted. So thank you in advance.

    Thanks but Fusion 360 says it will not work after January 1 on Windows 10. I might be able to migrate to FreeCad but I don’t have time to figure that out any time soon, plus I’m sure there are some games I’m going to be playing that the net says won’t work on Linux.

      I was responding to this. If you have different reasons then that’s fine.

        Oh I see. Yeah, I would prefer not to chance it security-wise. Which is funny because Microsoft IS the security risk.
