@Doriandotslash Good info. I was not aware of ntfsundelete.
I will never use Bitlocker. It is closed source code from Microsoft -- a huge Spyware company.
I still use Windows. But I am going to be switching over to Linux on my next PC, and I will use VeraCrypt (and I imagine that files lost in a VeraCrypt volume are gone for good).
Any Linux OS is far superior to Windows, for security, privacy, reliability, and performance. But I am new to Linux, and want to choose a good distro.
I have narrowed my choices down to MX Linux and Parrot Security.
MX Linux seems to be very popular, and will probably be around for the long haul.
But Parrot offers an AnonSurf feature (funneling all traffic via TOR), which you can toggle on and off. So I like that. But I am unsure of Parrot's overall functionality. For example, I do not know if it will be good for gaming. It is Debian based, so I am assuming that if Debian is good for gaming, then Parrot should be, too? I'll find out.
I am also intrigued with Qubes OS. I would love that OS as a daily driver, as it seems to be the King of compartmentalizing your on-line life. TAILS is also very good, but too restrictive (for your own good) for a daily driver for me. I would go with Qubes, but it is basically a virtual machine generator, and has too many specific hardware requirements and virtualization is not good for gaming.
I threw a lot out there, hoping maybe you would offer a recommendation for or against a distro. Finding reputable, knowledgeable folks for help is not easy. There is a blizzard of information out there, and it is hard for a newbie to know what is what. Any advice is appreciated.
Cheers!
