Hi @Microsoft,
Is there a developer version of Windows that I can use to run in a Virtual Box to test my software against Windows, locally?
I'm not going to pay for another license, but I'd like my code to work for Windows' users.
I.E. I want this, but without the expiration stuff that forces me to reinstall the tools I need to run my tests. https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads/virtual-machines …

no, but you can use sysprep to eliminate a lot of the pain of reinstalling - which may not be news to youhttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/sysprep--generalize--a-windows-installation …

I use this method for SQL Server eval editions - first install everything, sysprep it (which effectively removes configuration), snapshot it (virtualbox), and then clone + apply config for each new iteration, works for 180 days
