Very true and I assume that is my main reason for not being able to migrate (because I cannot do ion Linux what I can do on Windows).

You don't play your games on Linux?????

What a surprise ... not!

I was surprised that up till a few years ago, Microsoft was apparently still installing Windows on such an outdated filesystem.
Regardless it is STILL ancient history!
