      Most people don’t. How do you think in 2023 Google is still raking in millions of dollars nonstop?

      The moment adblock stops working I’m out. Haven’t made the move yet because I’m lazy and because none of the stuff people tak about has affected me yet. Even youtube works without having to do anything.

      Moving to Firefox is long overdue, though. Kinda waiting for that push now.

          Can you at least recover your files? Been here a couple times. I mean, it’s Windows. 😝

          My goto for quick? Backup: • %ProgramData% • Your user folder: Users\yourname

          • Including the AppData folder. • Registry backup
          • browser favorites export

          Most apps can be reinstalled. Their settings are in programdata and appdata usually. Anything else you might need is probably in the registry.

            The file still there, just that in the process of reinstall windows it also uninstall all app, so i just thought “meh” and start all over again. Now i don’t have to clean unused app and obsolete website bookmark myself 🙈
