I'm surprised the use of BI tools that integrate with Excel has not come up in this discussion. For example, Oracle EssBase (part of Hyperion) is comparatively inexpensive, and it is used in Excel via their SmartView plugin. You get al

I'll give the Affinity products a chance when they fix bone-headed missing features - like a way to change the ruler origin. This is a particularly egregious omission in Affinity Designer. They have been promising this non-optional fea

If I am understanding this correctly: Any existing but disabled account (an account with no shadow hash) will be upgraded to an account with a shadowhash. Normally this is fine, because it is an in-memory upgrade that allows the authentic

WSL is Linux. It is not Windows. Microsoft "managed" to make it possible to run Linux binaries on Windows, in a pseudo-virtual Linux environment. The distro you choose to run in WSL is not built by Microsoft. If you want to develo

Kudos for going the route of a VST bridge on this. I can see this becoming a necessity as this project grows. This is the route the Hauptwerk took for their pipe-organ software. They used to have a VST-version of their platform, but it was

Well... It depends. Think about your goals first, and don't worry about cost yet. There is plenty of free or low-cost software options out there that can teach you the basics of either system. If you would like to just get your head wr

For now you can use inter-app MIDI and audio to use it as an external instrument in most DAWs. I use it with RogueAmoeba's LoopBack (like SoundFlower, but less glitchy and way more flexible), and feed that into a composite audio device

Physical to VHDX migration is a PITA. I've done it in an emergency, but it's not ideal. You can convert a raw drive image to VHD using the now-obsolete VHDTool, and from there convert to VHDX. But the resulting volume is not dynam

That's not so much esoteric as old-school. When VHD was the only other option, it was the standard way of getting decent performance out of iSCSI or large direct-attached volums. But with VHDX, passthrough gains you so little that it&#

There is no such thing as instance or site pricing for Windows Server. Where are you getting that from? There is only core licensing, and you have to license all cores in a hypervisor, 16 minimum, and then you can only run two Windows Serve
