Too late, changed all my family's computers to Linux. Even my 70 years old dad, who learned to use computers with Windows 95, prefer it to Windows now ๐Ÿ˜†.

My methods may have been a bit underhanded, but it worked flawlessly ๐Ÿ˜†

By the time I came back to "reinstall", he told me "No need, I got used to it." .๐Ÿ˜†
