I do not have the skills to work-on/repair OSs alternative, if something goes wrong. Are there any top alternative Computer OSs that have IRW computer repairpeople that was work on computers that use their OSs? If the answer is yes, then around what USA cities?

This is a really hard post to parse, but literally just install mint. Look up a how to. It isn’t difficult, this isn’t rocket science, you just need a flash drive. The worst thing you can do is wipe your drive… which you’ll need to do anyway to install another OS.

You get to learn some basics of computer troubleshooting, or stick with windows, take your pick.
