      Same, at-least everything past Windows Vista era of operating systems. I guess Microsoft has the resources to test and deploy to most types of hardware configurations so the chances of getting a borked update is rarer compared to other OS’s like Arch and Mint which have a smaller user base but more diverse hardware configurations.

      I haven’t had a Windows install completely brick itself, but I have seen Windows go into a try to update->update fails->rollback->updates are available->tries to update again… etc. infinite loop.

      It’s been a while since I’ve had a Linux system brick that wasn’t me doing something stupid, though I’ve gotten a lot better at handling the occasional minor hiccup.
