Sorry if this is slightly off topic, I searched for communities about tech support on here and couldn’t find anything that wasn’t dead in the water. Basically I want to use WPA3 on my Network, however my Windows partition doesn’t support WPA3 for some reason. I only keep that piece of trash around for school work. My Fedora Linux partition can use WPA3 just fine so I assume this is a driver issue. Is there any way to use Linux WiFi drivers on Windows?

      If you need to use windows because of a software issue, not a hardware issue, you’re probably best off running windows in a VM.
      That way your linux install is making the WPA3 connection, and as far as the Windows install is concerned, it’s on a wired lan.
      This has the added benefit of not having to reboot, you just always start linux and turn the windows VM on and off as required.

            I do see valid use cases for pc in a test-exam-facility (meaning 80 pc without personal login) or pc in kiosk mode.

          I have the same problem at my school, but thankfully, the school library has laptops I can borrow with the lockdown browser installed. It isn’t ideal, but is there a similar arrangement you could make?

          Refuse to use it or if you aren’t that bold refuse to run it on your own hardware.

          Seriously though, it is documented malware

              Have you talked to your professor? You could always explain that the use of Lockdown browser is unjust. Also you can find professors that don’t require it.

      Do you need the Windows partition for something specific? I used to dual-boot because I needed Windows for a previous job but have been Linux-only for years
