    These days Windows boots really fast to the login screen (which has a reboot option).

    If you log in, it’ll start loading all the usual shit, and that will take a few moments on SSD. (And a few geological megacycles on a HDD.)

      Only if you have a swap partition, and if you dual-boot then that swap partition is gonna be overwritten all the time.

        What

        Linux swap partitions have no bearing on Windows boot times. Or Windows in general. Windows doesn’t care about partitions it doesn’t recognise. (It might, on occasion, fuck with the bootloader though, but I hear it’s a little bit less of a headache in UEFI days)
