It's because Windows is crap software. Just stop using anything Microsoft makes.
This was very much not caused by windows
I don't hear about billions of Linux or Mac computers going down all at the same time. I'm hearing that windows allows a simple text file change to bring down all of them at the same time.
Weird, cus it literally happened a few months ago:

This was in no way a Windows problem, this was entirely a CrowdStrike problem. Claiming otherwise makes you look like an uninformed moron.
They are most likely uninformed with a very strong opinion based on how they feel...while I'd like to call them a moron I've done this exact thing and like to think I'm not a moron.
