I usually use Linux, but for my daw, I use window. I've been working on mirroring the machine for two days now. Every vst has to be separately installed, and there are multiple prompts / windows for each.

Also samba and ntfs is slow af when copying over a network.

I did install wsl to use rsync, but it's sketch when going from ntfs to ntfs. Ntfs to ext4 seems to work though.
