When you see a cmd window or two flash into and out of existence after trying to open something:
My work PC does this every time I turn it on. After 2 years it still gives me that jolt of “oh shit”.

My elderly parents both have laptops with Windows 11 (don’t @ me, they can’t possibly learn a new OS at this point). Every once in a while they briefly throw up like 100 cmd windows. I have no clue what they are.
Rename cmd.exe to anything else.exe problem solved xD. (I don’t know if that would be a great idea)
Not sure what you’re calling elderly, but my FIL turned 70 this year, and I just set him up with Mint a few months ago. Dude is loving it.
