There are advantages to dual booting Elementary OS with Windows 10 or Windows 11. One is that if the Windows system fails and won't boot, the files stored there can be accessed from Elementary OS and easily backed up. So, you don't have to worry about losing files if you need to reinstall Windows.
A second advantage of dual booting Elementary OS is that it's immune to viruses or malware, which often target Windows. Because elementary OS is very different from Windows, starting from its core, the Linux kernel. Different targets mean no attacks can be carried out.
A third advantage of installing elementary OS alongside Windows is that it's faster and has a better user interface than Windows. Everything looks simple yet beautiful, there's no complicated control panel, and it can be updated without slowing down the PC.
That's my review of elementary OS 6.1. Some people simply use it without doing these necessary things, which are actually important as basic configuration before using it.
