omg! I had this same exact shit happen when I tried to delete the game folder for a game pass game. I spent literal hours escalating permissions, shifting ownership around and banging my head against the desk. Nothing from within Windows allowed me to gain sufficient power to delete that folder. That made me realize I didn’t own the computer I was using, Microsoft did. Live-cd booting into Ubuntu made for a quick resolution, though.

I had issues with a new version of glibc that prevented me from working on music in Ardour on Manjaro.

Man, I love seeing comments like this, I get a good chuckle out of it every time. The wildly different experiences I've read about almost every linux distro out there just makes it all seem ... shit. You could have a great time with distro X and inevitably there will be somebody crawling out of the woodwork to crap on your parade. :D
