I've worked with and managed global Windows deployments. I've built domains and AD environments from the ground up and have worked on workgroup->domain migrations and everything that goes along with that. But I'm not here to measure dicks.

Creative software being Audacity, Fruityloops, ProTools, Logic, Reaper, various tracker, etc for sound engineering/recording and the Adobe suite for photography and graphics. Ie, my hobbies. I've never had to fiddle with drivers with any of these, just software settings, which is to be expected.

My point is that installing Windows applications, even at scale, generally does not require poking or reconfiguring the OS itself.

Not sure why you're being rude.
