You can get Wine on mac

Linux Mint

Thanks for linking me to the to this page. I did some more diging and I managed to figure out the actual problem. I was using a program called CompactGUI2 which allows you to use the NTFS file comprssion to save space. The minute I uncompressed the files from the Windows side I saw the Lock icons go away when I booted back into Linux.

I mounted it using fstab

I just download the appimage version of duckstation on the Linux side to see if it could run the game but it was unable to find my games in the ROMs Directory. Then I tried going to System > Start File and When I tried to launch the game that way I got this error.

What is even more weird is that I was able to launch the copy on my ext4 partition despite the fact the the BIOS I selected is in the ntfs partition.

Edit: I just tried opening the BIN and CUE files from the ntfs partition and got on error saying that the file does not exist despite the file being visible from the file manager. I also noticed that the one on the ntfs partition had some lock icons while the ext4 one did not. I also saw a windows directory in the cue file on the windows C: drive which I found very weird because I usually store all my games on the D: drive of my system. The copy on my ext4 also how this Windows Directory.

I just installed the program but it says that it cannot find any devices.

Do you mean like a different file manager? I just tried using Thunar instead of Nautilis and got the same error.

I disabled Windows update with winaero tweaker.

I went to that directory and did a cat on the history.log and got this. I also tried looking for the meta package you were talking about and installed mint-meta-cinnamon.

Edit: Holy Shit. I just tried installing gnome and got my desktop back. Thank you so much.

Ok is what happened. I was on the UNF subreddit trying to figure out how to connect my laptop to the schools wifi on linux because my university uses the thing call OnGuard which is only required for Mac and Windows. A redditor link me to this post and it turned out that the reason why I was unable to connected to the schools wifi was because the network had my MAC address was tied to Windows when I originally connected my computer to the Wi-Fi. So I tried to follow the instructions on how to spoof my mac address which I was able to do it manually but then when I tried set it up to do it automatically by installing udev and editing some files using this link in the post I rebooted my computer login into gnome on x11 and did an ifconfig and noticed that my wireless adapter changed from wlp0s20f3(which is my usually the wireless inferface on my system) to wlan0 and was unable to connect to the internet so I then tried removing udev and then out of nowwhere the system showed a CLI. I tried to reboot but it took me Back to the CLI again so I then tried to reinstall udev and reboot which did nothing. Then I tried to remove the files that I had created and that did not work either and that was when I tried to restored from timeshift.

Here is a picture of my command history

I dual booted Linux Mint with Windows 10 on my gaming laptop so that I wouldn’t have to upgrade to Windows 11 or buy a new computer.

Thanks for the reply. I was able to clone it last night using that software. Thank you.

I just booted into the old drive and plug the new drive into using an nvme to usb c and it did not show up on disk management. However when I used an adapter to plug it in to the usb 2.0 and 3.0 inferfaces it showed up and I saw this:

note: Disk 2 is the new drive and Disk 1 is the original.

EFI. The BIOS is locked and I cannot disable secure boot.

I have hibernation disabled.

Thank you so much. I was able to successfully clone the drive and now it is showing up as 1tb.

No I did not disable the bitlocker before cloning. How do I disable it?

The iPhone

Dip?

I don’t know why this is getting downvoted. Communism is a pretty bad thing.
