"I see you are dual booting with Linux? I've reformatted that partition for you."
I had this happen before but not in recent times. Not sure if others have experienced the same.
For a while I had my bootloader on a single drive but I now have my Linux bootloader on /dev/sda and my windows on /dev/sdb and toggle it in the bios when I need to use Windows. I haven't had Windows overwrite anything in a long time. Could be a coincidence though.
I've read that dual booting Windows and Linux can have temperamental quirks and I've had my share of them.
Now, if I'm doing that, Windows fs gets isolated and I refuse to even connect it to the internet. But, outside of a legacy automotive shop program meant for XP, I've not needed Windows for a couple years.
