As an autodidact xennial, I'll take that as a compliment.
DOS, Windows, all the format C:'s in my time, it's all been trial and error as you say, because there weren't really anything on the line in the 90s and early 00s.
So I've just bumbled through, tried dumb shit, reinstalled, repeat.
Absolutely a compliment. It took me many months of research to figure out what PC parts to buy in the late '90s. Now you can easily piece something together in a day.
