Remember the ol days when you had to nuke windows every year to keep them running smooth? Man gone are those days. A 7 year old installation, with a million installs and uninstalls, no antivirus ever, been to every filthy corner of the internet. Changed multiple graphics cards. No windows updates enabled for years. Still no issues. It took microshit their whole existence to make a no frills OS.
I'm kind of sorry to see my 7yo win 7 installation go. But i got a new MBO + CPU + RAM, and its time to enter the "current year" with win10. For free of course. Yarrrrrr.
Wish me luck.

x86 the instruction set? Or do you mean 32-bit apps? Because the later are all but done and gone.

yeah, cpu instruction set, the very foundation of windows

That's not how compilers work. But anyway, x86 became x86-64 20 years ago. It's not going anywhere.
