I wish more people were open to learning how to properly configure Windows for family members who will likely never switch to Linux.
That shit situation sounds entirely avoidable.
I set up my 90 year old grandmother with Ubuntu; she was extremely open to learning. If somebody's got to learn something, then why not the more useful skill? That's better for the user, the teacher, and society at large.
Even a lot of young people are simply unwilling to learn something different if there's any way to avoid it. Your grandmother is not at all typical.
In my family we make fun of those people
Somewhere, a Genie is howling with laughter at the magnitude of that wasted wish.
