Windows exclusive apps with which i revive bricked usb flash drives and devices, for example, can you find flashing software (not fastboot/adb suite) with which you can revive completely bricked android devices on speedtrum cpus or unisoc cpus or other noname cpus, windows have a lot of specific software that wine cannot handle and virtualbox handling very poorly, I've heard many science software (abandonware) still requires windows xp and 95/98 and running in many labs out there (p.s I've been daily driving Linux for almost 9 years already but still recognise that windows won't disappear because we NEED to use that abandonware because there's simple no equivalent on Linux and never will be because many on Linux scene despise old software and some of people despise old hardware with that, I've experienced such people in comments of lemmy already)
