What an awesome resource you are. This video made me change my idea of using powershell from "run for the hills" to 'this is actually pretty cool". Thank you sir.

How to convert the server core to desktop experience ?

[learnerit]

Some useful features cannot run in core mode. I tested AAD connect and it failed. I think Microsoft has almost gave up expanding Server Core features since 2016...

I am watching this video on Windows Server 2022 Core lol.

If you're wondering how I got a web browser on server core, I installed chrome from a usb flash drive and added the chrome installation to the PATH variable.

(I also have some other basic applications installed)

Hi I checked online but did not understand got a bit confused it says here standard edition allows upto 2 virtual machines with one hyper-v host per license and Data center offers unlimited virtual machines plus one hyper-v host per license. This 2 virtual machine on standard is this on hyper v?
