Oh dear… special earphones for phone seem to be broken and the standard pin style doesn’t fit, so I thought to go back to the trusty old iPod shuffle. Redownloading music to freshen the selection, oops computer entirely full? I better move important but less frequently accessed stuff like pictures over to the storage drive to make some room.
Dig through to find those drives and… it’s not there. There is no second drive for storage. When I’m pretty sure there was before, and there usually is. Is my own computer gaslighting me? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

I’m absolutely floundering in life and currently can’t organise my way out of a paper bag. Everything is a can of worms. But I wish I could back everything up, wipe the computer, change it to a version of Windows I don’t hate and then organise everything properly.
I intend to install Linux on old machine and could use that as a fresh start but I’m still trying to find a safe iso and the machine is a desktop which is hard for me to sit up at (as opposed to a laptop in bed). I’d put Linux on a laptop but there are some things that are Windows (or Mac) only 😩 I don’t think I can get them working on Linux.
Also some files I’m not sure how to reliably back up.
I hate Windows 11 so much and wish I never “upgraded”.
