How easy is it to switch back to windows?
I'm considering switching to linux but I'm not a computer savvy person, so I wanted to have the option to switch back to windows if unforeseen complications (I only have 1 pc). Is it just a download on usb and install? And what ways can I get the product key or "cleaner" debloated versions.

It isn’t all that difficult to install a dual-boot setup, so you can choose at startup which OS to use.
Bingo. I haven't had a windows install mess up my bootloader in a while, granted I haven't booted my windows partition in a while either. As long as you create a separate partition for the bootloader, it's stupid easy to fix with a liveusb.
I’d forgotten about the bootloader. I only dual booted with XP for a few months before wiping the drive and dedicating that machine to Mint.
