The first was the ventoy one with mbr which I was fine other machines I have used it before with. It had like endeavour os , opensuse, pop os , linux mint windows 11 etc...

But I also reformatted it with windows 11 from meda creation tool as well to check but that also doesnt work which is the most strangest part

Only disabled secure boot and tried enabled secure boot with 3rd party Microsoft ca

I tried that as well the thing is the usb does not show up in the menu

I tried ventoy with mbr then ventoy with gpt then balenaetcher and Rufus with gpt and then finally a windows usb through the media creation tool. None of them worked. It's fine with my old laptop but since it was a legacy boot I am not so sure.

I would usually go with archwiki to learn most things and then follow distrotube or learnlinuxtv for video and new things.

In college right now 2yr computer science, anything Microsoft is a pain to work offline. I miss the onedrive sync in windows i just use syncthing for that now .

I use onlyoffice since it has one of the best Microsoft office compatibility though I submit my obsidian export as a pdf for my assignments or records.

If you really need ms office or for group projects and you have an o365 account, just use the web version for it.

There is blendOS which is an arch based immutable distro similar to Vanilla OS with different DE options

It took a while to get the screenshot. The header just stays in here for a bit then fully opens.

The user action menu is a bit broken when opening it.

It is possible to use official vs code repository. Just you would have to add it manually.

Thanks , it was quick to set up.

Mind if I ask you how did you do it ?
