I just got fnv a few days ago and wanted a few mods to fix the game a bit. Its my first playthrough and i dint want anything big and i heard that viva new vegas was a good vanilla + expansion that doesnt change the main game much. im also doing a political breakdown of all the factions in the game so i didnt want anything huge. i just finally got vnv to work but i cant seem to find my save file which i have like 7 or 8 hours, ik its not a lot compared to some of yall but i dont have the time to replay the game again. is there anyway to fix this or shouldi just play the first playthrough unmodded?

Im getting a new laptop soon and I fully intend to delete windows 11 and use linux. But thr the thing is I dont know anythig about coding or how it works and I dont want to do anything hard because I wont have time for it in the future. Is linux beginner friendly and is it worth it for someone who doesn't know coding and has no interest in learning it either

Edit: i should've specified the laptop im getting Its the lenovo IdeaPad slim 3

Specs: :• 13th Gen Intel Core i5 13420H • Octa Core (4P + 4E), 12 Threads • 16 GB LPDDR5 RAM • 512 GB SSD • Intel UHD Graphics • 15.3 inches, 1920 x 1200 pixels • Windows 11 OS

I checked the linux compatibility and im more confused because some are saying its fine and others are saying it isnt.

Ive settled on using the cinnamon mint distro.

Any other info I should know before switching?

The reason im ganna switch is because of the ai pushing, Spyware and bloatware. (I should've said lol)

Idk if I need to specify but im a law student for anyone wondering.
