Question: where should a tiny morsel like this go on CP ? imho, not enough meat on it for a Tip/Trick.
After wrestling with the VS installer, and VS' NuGet Package Manager, for several eternities ... i finally found the winning lottery ticket.

Seems enough for a Tip, although it looks like a default config (except for the Packagereferences option)

Arghhhh! Sorry. Work has been manic for the last 24 hours - and I totally forgot about CCC. 
I have nothing right now, but I'll give it my undivided attention for the next few minutes.
Back soon...

Yes, it's called "social media".

You may have left out:
0) company making software subsidizes the site in some way
1) company gives perks, swag, advance previews, to the people running the site to get influence.
2) company hires "influencers."
3) company pays for bots to deliver fake positive reviews.
4) company sues users for bad reviews.
That's what i call "social media"

The internet?
Previously known as BBSes and (in person) user groups. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

"Business model", as in, those who manage that forum derive some income from it?
In that case, they're really at the mercy of Company X not starting their own and, effectively killing their market. Assuming they do better.
It's like companies that write middleware that "improves" an established product from another company. If their entire business model relies on said company to keep their bugs around...they probably won't exist for long.

I have just inherited a system, and I want to completely wipe it (there were a few non-system files, and I have copied that over to stick drive).
It is Windows 10 Home, 20H2. At the end of all this, I want there to be like a new computer with this same OS. I don't have anything like a rebuild disk, etc. Since it is so weak, it might go to Goodwill.

use Macrium software and delete current partition..

Done this multiple times in the past, but it was also a few years ago - never seen a problem with it picking up the license - but then I only tried it on something like 4 computers.
No need for any third party partition tools unless you are afraid someone with two much time will start using a lot of tools to extract data - partitions can be deleted/created from the Windows 10 installer.

You might consider reviving it with a Linux distro. I like Twister OS[^]. It has themes that look and function like Windows from Windows 95 to Windows 10. It also has a DOS emulator and Wine to run Windows apps.

I have just remembered that I have install files for Linux & gparted, so I think I will do that and just give it away to a local charity; they probably have a way to get a free Windows license.

Don't mess around with individual partitions. Get MS's Win10 ISO download tool, boot from it, and just tell it to nuke all partitions. It'll create those small partitions it needs for boot/recovery, and allocate the rest of it to itself. Then let it install itself.
Then, if you're really paranoid about wiping might still be recoverable after that, run sdelete from SysInternals. This'll wipe any sector that is still marked as unused (even though data from previous files might still be there), so that data effectively gets overwritten with garbage.
For an extra level of paranoia - start the whole thing by running DBAN. The drive will be as clean as can be reasonably expected. Then reinstall Win10, and call it a day.
Or just replace the whole damned drive with one you no longer care about, after wiping it with DBAN (in case that one might ever have contained data you don't want to be recovered). Do whatever you want with the drive you've just removed.

My experience only goes as far as Windows 7 but I would recommend the same procedure as dandy72 with one remark.
If the computer has a Recovery Partition, use it instead of the ISO since that will automatically install all needed drivers for the system, although it will all be outdated. Afterwards update everything.
I had problems with some missing drivers on some systems when installing from an ISO instead of the Recovery Partition because the hardware was not even listed by the Windows installer and the computer manufacturer would not provide the correct drivers on their website.
The downside of using the Recovery Partition is that you also get all the crapware that the computer manufacturer wanted you to never use but still turn your top of the line computer into a disappointment.
Whichever method you choose, be careful to not remove the Recovery Partition as you might need it in the future.
Best regards to all
