Agreed. But at least if you know what/where it should be/comes from/does, that's a start.

It's way harder than that. This seems to be a failed conversion attempt, or a partial success. It may even be a bug in the conversion, or a Nuget issue. There could be a 100 ways this may have been caused, and it will require an experienced person to sit and debug this through to fruition.

Start at the beginning. If you can figure what it should have been, you're on your way. That isn't to say it won't, ultimately, be one of the myriad other things it might turn out to be but you have to start somewhere. I've done many conversions from one version of VS to another over the years. Yes, it can get complex but quite often it is not.

If you have a large solution with tons of projects, you may be better off getting a more experienced developer to do the conversion for you.

My life has become a race between me expanding the size of my Windows 10 VM allocated disks and Windows Update filling them up with system restore points... 
|
|
|
|
|
 I'd assume there's a way to control how many of those it keeps.... or at least I'd hope.
I had an old Ubuntu Linux that backed up every single kernel it updated, after a while... it filled the OS partition.... luckily, it was easy enough to delete the old ones, I never really figured how to make it stop storing so many old versions (it was a Samba share server).

Well yeah. Stop expanding the space available. It will then automatically delete as many of the oldest restore points as necessary to accommodate the newest. Same as it ever was!

Pretty sure its not supposed to fill an entire partition by default. Prob has a certain number of backups it tries to save (I.e. based on number of backups and not necessarily on space).

Ubuntu: sudo apt-get autoremove will trim it to the last 3 or so. Cleans up all sorts of other junk too, and kicks off grub update to tidy up the boot menus.

Didn't know auto remove cleaned that up... Guess I never really gave it much thought though... Like I said, it was an old server with an old Ubuntu, still ran pretty reliably though.

Brilliant timing! I was on my way back up the hill when you posted. Not intending to be down again before Christmas, but you never know. Still the same phone number ... 709?

Yes. If yours hasn't changed I have it in my phone.

It seems to have been ... er ... restored ... to default on for the system disk. Other disk/partitions remain default off.

I've been pondering for a while whether to upgrade to Windows 10 or not and would like the opinion of the brave ones out there that have been working with it for a while.
The old Dell Vostro 3500 has been running well on Win 7 and I don't really need to upgrade so it's more out of curiosity than anything else.
Cheers!

I played with it on and off for awhile and finally decided it just didn't offer anything I needed for the little headaches I had to work around. My DEV machine is solid running on Win7. I have "10" confined to a VM where I can use it for testing but I doubt that I'll go to it (at least on that equipment) at all. There's just no features compelling enough to upgrade right now, IMHO.

You do need to have at least Windows 8 to develop or play with Universal Apps and use the emulator.

I pondered this question quite a bit a few weeks back when I was upgrading my disk to solid state. I ended up just keeping my Win7 install (dual boots to Linux Mint) because well... it works. I also have a few expensive pieces of software on there that would really piss me off if they didn't work after the switch (notably, Matlab), so why mess with it.
If you don't have anything to lose, you can always back everything up and give it a try. In my case, I was more concerned about improving my boot times... I mostly use Linux nowadays anyway.
