I have never stuck with a Live system for very long before installing it to the hard drive, let alone four months! If it works "Live," then it'll most likely work faster and better installed. I think Linux Lite is a good drop-in replacement for Windows. Why the hesitancy to install it, if I might ask?
And welcome to this helpful forum and friendly community.
Hello and thanks for the nice welcome!
I wanted to install Linux Lite alongside Windows 10 and have a dual operating system situation. But after trying to work the whole process, I found out that this stupid laptop is configured so it does not allow partitioning for another operating system. Ugh.
I have a lot of apps I use in Windows 10 and also I can't for the life of me figure out how to work Clam AV in Linux. I might feel better about a permanent install of Linux Lite if I could figure out how to use Clam AV properly and also how to do updates for it and anything else. I definitely want a working AV. So far it seems like with a persistent live USB of Linux, I cannot do any kind of updates for Clam AV or anything else. I was able to install some programs but so far, can't update anything.
I admit I am also having a really hard time using the command line system of doing everything, so spoiled as a Windows user I guess with easy to use graphical interfaces. Even so, when I try to research how to fix problems in Linux Lite, it's kind of daunting at times or overly technical to me.
