Is it possible to multi-boot two installations of Windows 11 without complications and filesystem corruption?


Hello, hope you have success with all your endeavors. If you have good internet speeds as an alternative, you could use a secondary device like a laptop (I have a Steamdeck device formatted with a Windows 11 OS) and use Windows Remote Desktop Connection with just ALT + TAB between your Work and Games so to speak. I am quite impressed with the Remote Desktop Connection which is the built-in windows program. I am not referring to the Microsoft Remote Desktop App available on the app store and what, not. Those are to put it frankly, crap... they have weird screen resolution scalings and funny stuff, and a mess to connect and manage but if you can manage it good for you. But I am referring to using the 'old school' Remote Desktop Connection from Windows Pro (You'll need Pro I guess) The flow is just seamless and the latency for your 'work' environment is just great. I have my gaming setup on my performance PC and my Windows work environment on my Steamdeck (and some games cause it's on my Steamdeck so I can just unplug it on the go and play remotely when I am not stationed but it's religiously set apart from my work stuff) I can imagine a laptop shall work in this instance as well. I have them set up and connected to the same network. I just log into my Secondary OS so to speak with Remote Desktop Connection on my Performance PC and the whole Secondary OS runs in a Window that I can just switch through at ease using ALT + TAB. It's awesome quality, fullscreen and I can unpin the menubar. I can't even tell which OS I am using! so seamless it feels for argument's sake. This is only an alternative but I quite like this ecosystem.
