I'm not 100% sure but I think you can just use the Arch-installed-usb to install Arch on your pc again

you just need to get pacstrap no?

[orchid zenith]

it’s a meta package called arch-install-scripts

Might be an AUR package. I can’t remember. Edit: it’s in the main repos: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/arch-install-scripts/

[ancient musk]

yea unless you forgot to install network manager etc I think OP can just get that and start from there

is it installed by default and you only have to enable it?

[orchid zenith]

Yea in that case just booting back into windows and reflashing would be the best option.

[orchid zenith]

No

i don't remember, it's been too long since I've last installed lol

[orchid zenith]

It’s not installed by default or dep of base
