    I haven’t troubleshot windows in years. I fix switches, firewalls, Linux, and some mac issues.

    Its like I can’t fix a BMW or Audi but can still work on other cars.

      My friend doesn’t know his linux password, and can’t download anything without it. But he is too impatient to figure out how to reset it. While I am stubborn and will sit at my computer till i fix an audio issue, or any problem I have.

          Yes it is real, and I think it is auto login. Idk anything about Linux. He just downloads everything via a program called Discover. I never asked which Linux distro he was using.

            I am very sure he’s just installing flatpaks, it’s likely kde’s discover. Still he could just enter their boot from a live boot and chroot into the OS and do passwd (user) to change any password I believe unless it’s encrypted or sumthing which would probably not let you autologin in the first place.
