Thank you for your advice & sympathy, everyone ;)
I think you really shouldn’t be having these problems after an update either, and what happened for me was probably just some weird malfunction or whatever, but I just don’t really trust things to go smoothly anymore xD Though apparently you can also do a clean install of Win 10 instead of an update, and that would be possible with a new computer, as there’s no data to lose in the process yet....ahh decisions!!
I haven’t even considered a desktop PC, mhmm...they’re definitely cheaper. but Idk, I want something I can drag around with me :’D fingers crossed that your laptop holds out for a little while longer!
I’ve got everything backed up anyway because paranioa :D just need to update some folders on my external hard drive this weekend and then I’m basically ready. I hope you get all your data back, that is ~the nightmare~, holy shit D:
