   I've been using SSDs since 2009 and NVMes since 2015 and I've constantly   
   faced that issue, even on hardware that was maintained regularly. Why do

   If anything, it should take less. However, one has to wonder how broken   
   the operating system is if "repair installs" are a normalized process.   
   Even MacOS doesn't require them.
