So when I first installed Linux, I had the Q4wine program on, and I'd install games. And with the q4wine program they'd work fine. It worked every time. I had lutris on also but for some reason q4wine worked best and easiest. I'd just right click on the game file icon, and tell it to run on...

How do I turn off the computer's 'Recent files' tab showing my viewing history? This 'recent files' area shows up under the start menu, under all programs. I'd like to turn it off and have it not show my activity history to anyone looking at my computer.

So... I'm still new to Linux. There's things that aren't the same. If I was editing a jpg file in windows. I'd go to edit. And then I'd go to properties to set how wide and tall the canvas was that the jpg pic was in. If I did that, I could set it so that there wasn't any empty white space...

So I looked around at other threads from like 2012, and between here and then. Some of the discussions were that Linux didn't really have a standard defragment program. Has that changed or is that still the same? It would seem like... if you change the oil in your car it would last longer...

So I live with people that I don't necessarily trust. Sometimes they act out. Basically family members. Sometimes they are passive aggressive... I have been worried about something about how the internet browsers do security. Like say I have an Amazon account or something else, sometimes it...
