RE: When the Technology "Breaks:" If it Isn't ONE Thing, it's Another!
Linux is the key to performance, stability and freedom! Windows is quite good in 'eating' hardware and it always leaves a few windows open right to your home... I would highly recommend switching to Linux (Linux Mint for example). Once you go Linux and discover the benefits, you will never come back.
Separating private and business data can easily be done by creating virtual machines with VirtualBox. In that way you can start your 'business' Linux with a click from your normal desktop when you need it. At the end of the day you can just copy your virtual machine disk (one file) to your backup drive and you are safe once for all.
Thanks for the advice @steemchiller, I may end up doing this as I am (aside from technical issues) growing more and more tired of MicroSnot's ways of not allowing things to work properly, unless you do them their way.
It has been a long time since I looked at Linux... long enough that "back then" my choice not to use it was that a lot of software didn't run well/at all on it.
