i haven't booted windows in several weeks on my media center

somehow during an update it corrupted the registry hives and it didn't even attempt to make a regback before the update started

now it won't even refresh/reset. it just fails and enter a reboot loop.

holy fucking shit, microsoft.

Follow

this all started because I realized my torrents weren't downloading and i couldn't save or savestate in retroarch because the windows (and other data) filesystem was read-only under linux.

i really, don't feel like fixing this tonight lmao. the ntfs partition is unlocked now, so whatever.
