I stopped running samba a year or more ago. If I have something to get onto

probably last year when I last had any reason to boot Windows. When I do, I
usually do with with the ethernet cable disconnected. With Win10 expiring, I'll
have even less reason to boot Windows. :)

When I run Windoze, it's inside Oracle VirtualBox (which is free) in a window on Debian. I don't give it network access.
