How old is your OS install (on your main computer)

[SteveiJobs]

Current setup: Windows 10, 2 months old.

 

Old PC: Windows 7 on an HDD, clonezilla'd to an SSD, upgraded to Win10, clonezilla'd to a larger SSD, and decommissioned 2 months ago, 8 1/2 years...

Almost exactly 6 months. I had to reinstall when I finally switched to using an SSD.

A few months old. I reinstall after every hardware upgrade after messy drivers wrecked my RAID array and I didn't have a backup

My Windows 10 install on my main computer used to be about 3 years old when I reinstalled a couple months ago. It worked flawlessly. The only reason I reinstalled was because I was troubleshooting a problem and I thought maybe reinstalling Win10 would fix the issue. It didn't.

 

The Win10 install in my secondary computer/off-site backup has been running for about 2 years now, I think. The SSD with it actually used to be in my laptop. I couldn't be bothered to reinstall it so I simply plugged it into the 2ndary computer and it works perfectly, no reinstall needed.

 

The ZorinOS Lite in my laptop is about 5 days old now. I'm liking it so far.

Windows: December 2020. Drive File Stream likes to corrupt icons. The only way to fix this issue permanently according to other users with the same issue was to do a clean install. Though I am part of the Windows Insider Program so I guess I “reinstall” every few weeks.

 

 

Mac: Never. Though I do install updates as soon as they are available.
