I have a MacBook Pro M1 Max 32 GB 16 Core and then I set 16 GB 8 CPU to my Win11 on Parallel VM.
My experience with the legacy project and VS 2022 was similar. Those project has too many files inside the solution. However I don’t feel this is loading faster.

I run on Macbook Pro 2019 (16gb RAM, 1tb SSD, 8 core i9 Intel). I use parallels extensively. I work in Windows but live in Mac.
I have thought the Apple Silicon issue over and over, regarding what I'm going to do when I make the jump. I think the best solution until MS is more mainstream on Arm is to use Windows 365 Cloud PC. I administer AVD (Azure Virtual Desktop) for a large U.S. government entity now. It works very well.
It is a bit pricey ($30/month ish) but is probably the best alternative to having another PC.
Just thought I'd put this out there to give folks another option to consider.

Yes - the cloud desktop is certainly a neat but pricey option. Pity it requires a decent connection to use (so no good travelling or where you have a bad connection)

When Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play..
and I first joined CP as Old Timer.
Forgot my password and had to create my current account.
First person I came across was Marc Clifton.
Been an awesome experience and met a lot of good people.

Where does the time go?
I've been here a while now - nowhere near you of course - but it seems like yesterday when I found the site, even though it's changed considerably since then.
Anything you miss from those days (other than the soapbox, of course)?

Friends; a few have drifted away and a couple have passed.
Other than that the place is pretty much the same old; pleasurable, aggravating place!
And as to the soapbox, yes and no!

Seems about right. But 20 years ago, it wasn't lame ass!

A good 11 years for me already 
I've been doing this for 12 years and signed up on CP after about half a year 
I remember reading an article by HenryMinute, who unfortunately passed away.
After reading it I signed up to ask him a question about it and he answered pretty quickly and was helpful.
My first message on CP and absolutely noob question is right here under this article: Designing Nested Controls[^]

I am glad our lot could balance that false start

Over 16 years for me...
CP is the oldest Website in my life and I think of it like a marriage (until death separate us).

Hell yeah!! 100% agree

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I've been a "lurker" for many years. Can count on one hand the number of times I've responded/contributed. However, I REALLY appreciate being able to see these posting daily, especially since I've been WFH for the last 3+ years (pre-covid).
I am definitely a "grey beard" started developing with paper tape - almost miss those days, NOT.

I started with puNch cards but it was really expensive for me because I had 2 kids that I had to entertain when I went to computer room and they used a lot of them.

Oh yes, punch cards. They made the best and worst confetti (they are really hard to vacuum up again....)
|

I worked as a computer operator while attending college and we had a woman COBOL programmer bring in a box of cards to be run and one of the other operators dropped the box. We apologized profusely and gave them back to her to reorganize, she was upset but understanding.
When she gave them back I dropped them and then she was pissed. I offered to help but she refused. I felt like crap!

I deleted my Microsoft Edge profile and since I do not do any online sync etc, I do not know where to recover by favourites from. Does anyone know where on disk Edge stores it? I would expect it to be somewhere here and looking into it. But in case someone knows I can do this faster: C:\Users\MyWindowsUser\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data
Update
I gave up and enabled sync to a google account.

Should be in
...\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default
the "Bookmarks" file.
|
|
|
|
|
There is no Default folder there. And the only bookmarks file (not a folder) I see in user data is empty.
