I'm thinking about deleting System32 on my school computer because it's on the verge of breaking down. Is this a smart move to get a new one? What will really happen if I go through with it?

Instead of going down that road, remember the old days? Load up some classic games from floppy disks when no oneโ€™s around! That might sound like a fun alternative... at least while you're still in school!

Honestly, just deleting System32 wonโ€™t get you a new computer. The IT department will likely just re-image it with a fresh copy of Windows, which isn't a big deal for them. Plus, theyโ€™ll know exactly what you did, and it might just annoy them more than anything else. Iโ€™d suggest finding another way to get an upgrade instead!

If you're not an admin on the school PC, you might not even be able to delete System32. And if you somehow manage to, the school will definitely just re-image the PC. Trust me, this plan won't work as you hope.

You shouldn't do that! There are way better ways to get new tech without causing trouble. Just try talking to someone about your computer issues instead.
