#literally i haven't even gotten a chance to confirm all my old files were recovered properly or anything

My laptop battery died on me very abruptly right before I went to Spain (and right before I was going to backup all my files / temporarily move pics off my phone for space / etc. - it was a whole ordeal to scramble and get the files recovered to a separate hard drive at Best Buy 🙄) so I had to buy a new one and get it bare bones operational, and postpone actual computer setup until later.

Well later was today, I have installed a grand total of *2* programs on it - antivirus and an old version of Photoshop Elements (through Adobe's site!) - and it needed to reboot to finish install and now it cannot boot back up for some reason 🥲
