P.P.S I learned I have 10 days left until I am trapped in here for the foreseeable future but I can't really go back because...
I have a confession to make.
On February 14th, 2026 I was trying to make an ARG based on New Super Mario Bros (2006 version) and I had installed RetroArch. I messed up it all and I reverted back to a previous point using a System Restore point I made so I could use Windows Movie Maker 2.6 (it didn't really work as I couldn't add titles :P). I didn't realize that I had to get Snipping Tool again, so the next day I reverted the System Restore (On February 15th). Something went wrong and my screen turned black. I couldn't do anything else and messed the whole thing up so I called my aunt (Call her Stephanie) and she had a boyfriend who was good at computer stuff. The boyfriend took my PC away and for the rest of the day into the next day at 12:00PM (February 16th) I couldn't have the computer. On February 16th Stephanie informed me she was gonna reinstall Windows because it was all corrupted. They cleaned my computer and sent it back to me. Stephanie believed that Windows had to update. That's why I hate Windows updates now. So now, as you probably might have guessed already...
I had to reinstall Windows, because many files were corrupted.
I was working on so many projects and I can't access them anymore because I decided to be an idiot 2 WHOLE DAYS AGO!
So yea, this is kind of a PSA (PSA is not what it appears to be lolol) on not to use RetroArch. So yea, I want someone to tell me if I should just revert the reinstall and we will all live happily ever after (10 days later and that wouldn't happen).

Also I tried to install Windows Live Essentials but it thinks I'm on a kid account so I have to turn on Family Safety. This made me angry.
Other than that I can't use the emulator Desmume because of some pointless error. I had to merge 2 Clipchamp accounts and am now depressed :D! Some other stuff of mine were also corrupted in the incident. My headphones are also louder.
NOW FOR HARDWARE STUFF: My aunt's boyfriend (who is the reason I'm typing here) cleaned the computer. This included cleaning the fan stuff on the front of the computer.
I sure hope to play Steam games again! ^_^
P.S. I hope this all is reversable. Aunt says it isn't but...I gotta check, you know? I should ask AI mode (yes, I use that lolol) I should get going...
