Something important that should be done right after starting the VM: Change group policies to disable Windows Update as best you can so it can't mess at all with the VM. If you use Workstation Pro, make a snapshot too in case you need to revert.
@
shadow66 do you have the database login credentials somewhere? Before I extracted the VM again, my laragon had lost its database connection for some reason. Not sure how exactly, it just vanished at some point. Would be good to note them down in case they are needed. Also, are there any limitations for password and email? Or could I do "1" as password and
b@c.com as email too?
