I've had a busy night with computers. Phuk 'em.

Remember that $1.50 desktop? https://phuks.co/s/Whatever/56752

I wanted to install Windows 10 on it. I've been experimenting with all sorts of shit to do it. I've been using my USB as a storage medium to hold the ISOs and shit.

I needed to clean the USB. I fired up DiskPart, list disk, selected it, cleaned it. Somewhere along the process, something severely phukked up and I ended up purging the main disk and the other partitions I had setup.

I tried installing ListDisk, but that didn't really work.

Then I remembered, I setup a restore point not too long after I setup the computer. I decided to check that out.

...

Lo and behold, I recovered all the shit I lost except for one or two programs I had installed in program files. Everything else was back where it was supposed to be.

I didn't even need to format the USB in the end after doing all that. I decided to clone a HDD that had Windows on it and duplicate it. That worked.

Tonight has been full of mistakes.

I wanted to install Windows 10 on it.

Yeah. That'd be a significant downgrade from XP with a significant system hardware requirement increase.
