Does using "erase disk and install linux mint" act like the remove everything function in the windows's Reset PC option?
I'm switching to Linux and used to have a virus on my windows 11 PC, so I wanted to delete everything before switching just to be safe, but my installation is corrupted and I don't have an external USB drive bigger than 4GB. Would clicking erase disk do the same thing a full windows reset would? I want to use a dual boot with windows but was wondering if I could just install Linux with the "erase disk" feature to fully get rid of the virus first
Thank you all so much for the tips!
