    Switching from Manjaro to Linux


    I posted this question on the Manjaro Linux forum, and someone directed me to here. Now, I switched from Windows 10 to Manjaro and I want to switch back, mainly because I can't play most of my games with Linux. I already have a 8GB USB with Windows 10 on it. However, it's not an ISO. Just an EXE. I can use Wine to launch it, and when click install on the Windows 10 pop-up, it gives an error message saying that Windows cannot find a location to store temporary files. I tried running BIOS and selecting the USB, but that told me to use Rufus. I installed and launched Rufus with Wine. I cannot select a device on Rufus though, as when I click on it, nothing happens. I'm stuck with Manjaro, not being able to play most of my games. Any way on how I can swithc my OS back to Windows 10?

    :)

    Dual Boot Linux Manjaro Issues in Windows 10

    Ehh,

    that sounds weird. Why would it want to start Windows if you selected Linux ? In EasyBCD, did you choose the partition where you installed Linux on ? I mean, if you choose to boot Linux, it should not come up with "Windows failed at start" at all...

    Well, you are free to try it with a different OS. Its sad, that Manjaro does not work, since it is one of the most user-friendly Linux systems.
