In my experience, windows always gets something wrong with drivers and I have to go do some stupid shit to fix it. And then later fight windows update as it tries to override my fix. Windows problems are rarely immediately apparent, whereas Linux problems usually are.

I haven't had driver problems in forever, unless I'm using some old weird device that I haven't used in ages. And even then usually going into device manager and telling it what kind of device the unknown device is usually fixes it.

I've never had this problem, and I've had... Oh man, a few dozen windows machines?

What are you doing to them?

What are you doing to them?

Something most people don't do. It's like how Apple can often hold your hand so hard that you can't leave their preferred path. Windows lets you think it will let you stray without a fight. In niche cases it doesn't.

Usually programming. Or trying out an odd peripheral. But other than that, normal usage, it still breaks.
