Microsoft Windows is a computer operating system developed by Microsoft. It was first launched in 1985 as a graphical operating system built on MS-DOS. The initial version was followed by several subsequent releases, and by the early 1990s, the Windows line had split into two separate lines of releases: Windows 9x for consumers and Windows NT for businesses and enterprises. In the following years, several further variants of Windows would be released: Windows CE in 1996 for embedded systems; Pocket PC in 2000 (renamed to Windows Mobile in 2003 and Windows Phone in 2010) for personal digital assistants and, later, smartphones; Windows Holographic in 2016 for AR/VR headsets; and several other editions.

Windows MultiPoint Server was an operating system based on Windows Server. It was succeeded by the MultiPoint Services role in Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server version 1709. It was no longer being developed in Windows Server version 1803 and later versions.

In 2012 and 2013, Microsoft released versions of Windows specially designed to run on ARM-based tablets; these versions of Windows, named "Windows RT" and "Windows RT 8.1," were based on Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, respectively. Upon the release of Windows 10 in 2015, the ARM-specific version for large tablets was discontinued; large tablets (such as the Surface Pro 4) were only released with x86 processors and could run the full version of Windows 10. Windows 10 Mobile had the ability to be installed on smaller tablets (up to nine inches);[26] however, very few such tablets were released, and Windows 10 Mobile primarily ended up only running on smartphones until its discontinuation. In 2017, the full version of Windows 10 gained the ability to run on ARM, thus rendering a specific version of Windows for ARM-based tablets unnecessary.

Beginning with Windows 10, version 21H2, feature updates for Windows 10 release are released annually, in the second half of the calendar year, to the General Availability Channel. They will be serviced with monthly quality updates for 18 or 30 months from the date of the release, depending on the lifecycle policy.

We recommend that organizations begin deployment of each General Availability Channel release immediately as a targeted deployment to devices selected for early adoption and ramp up to full deployment at your discretion. This will enable you to gain access to new features, experiences, and integrated security as soon as possible.

I opened an Excel spreadsheet from the team files area in the browser, edited it and saved it back in the files area of a team channel. I made mistakes in the editing. Now, I can't just use "undo" because the file has already been saved. Is there a way to revert to the previous version of the file?

To find your correct build number: Launch Microsoft Edge. Open the Settings and more (...) menu, choose Help and feedback, and then choose About Microsoft Edge. Using the correct version of Microsoft Edge WebDriver for your build ensures it runs correctly.

Amazon RDS supports several versions and editions of Microsoft SQL Server. The following table shows the most recent supported minor version of each major version. For the full list of supported versions, editions, and RDS engine versions, see Microsoft SQL Server versions on Amazon RDS.

For information about licensing for SQL Server, see Licensing Microsoft SQL Server on Amazon RDS. For information about SQL Serverbuilds, see this Microsoft support article about Where to find information about the latest SQL Server builds.

With Amazon RDS, you can create DB instances and DB snapshots, point-in-time restores, andautomated or manual backups. DB instances running SQL Server can be used inside a VPC. Youcan also use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to connect to a DB instance running SQL Server, and you can use transparent data encryption (TDE) toencrypt data at rest. Amazon RDS currently supports Multi-AZ deployments for SQL Server using SQLServer Database Mirroring (DBM) or Always On Availability Groups (AGs) as a high-availability, failover solution.

To deliver a managed service experience, Amazon RDS does not provide shell access to DBinstances, and it restricts access to certain system procedures and tables that requireadvanced privileges. Amazon RDS supports access to databases on a DB instance using any standardSQL client application such as Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. Amazon RDS does not allowdirect host access to a DB instance via Telnet, Secure Shell (SSH), or Windows RemoteDesktop Connection. When you create a DB instance, the master user is assigned to thedb_owner role for all user databases on that instance, and has alldatabase-level permissions except for those that are used for backups. Amazon RDS manages backupsfor you.

A production DB instance should use Multi-AZ deployments. Multi-AZdeployments provide increased availability, data durability, and faulttolerance for DB instances. Multi-AZ deployments for SQL Server areimplemented using SQL Server's native DBM or AGs technology.

If your AWS account has a default VPC, then your DB instance isautomatically created inside the default VPC. If your account does nothave a default VPC, and you want the DB instance in a VPC, you mustcreate the VPC and subnet groups before you create the DB instance.

By default, DB instances are created with a firewall that preventsaccess to them. You therefore must create a security group with thecorrect IP addresses and network configuration to access the DBinstance.

The following table shows the maximum number of supported databases for eachinstance class type and availability mode. Use this table to help you decide ifyou can move from one instance class type to another, or from one availabilitymode to another. If your source DB instance has more databases than the targetinstance class type or availability mode can support, modifying the DB instancefails. You can see the status of your request in the Eventspane.

For example, let's say that your DB instance runs on a db.*.16xlarge with Single-AZ and thatit has 76 databases. You modify the DB instance to upgrade to using Multi-AZAlways On AGs. This upgrade fails, because your DB instance contains moredatabases than your target configuration can support. If you upgrade yourinstance class type to db.*.24xlarge instead, the modification succeeds.

SQL Server Standard Edition uses only a subset of the available processors if the DB instance has more processors than the software limits (24 cores, 4 sockets, and 128GB RAM). Examples of this are the db.m5.24xlarge and db.r5.24xlarge instance classes.

If you have a scenario that requires a larger amount of storage, you can usesharding across multiple DB instances to get around the limit. This approachrequires data-dependent routing logic in applications that connect to thesharded system. You can use an existing sharding framework, or you can writecustom code to enable sharding. If you use an existing framework, the frameworkcan't install any components on the same server as the DB instance.

To use these features, we recommend that you install SQL Server on an Amazon EC2 instance, oruse an on-premises SQL Server instance. In these cases, the EC2 or SQL Serverinstance acts as the Master Data Services server for your SQL Server DB instanceon Amazon RDS. You can install SQL Server on an Amazon EC2 instance with Amazon EBS storage,pursuant to Microsoft licensing policies.

Because of limitations in Microsoft SQL Server, restoring to a point in time beforesuccessfully running DROP DATABASE might not reflect the state ofthat database at that point in time. For example, the dropped database istypically restored to its state up to 5 minutes before the DROPDATABASE command was issued. This type of restore means that youcan't restore the transactions made during those few minutes on your droppeddatabase. To work around this, you can reissue the DROP DATABASEcommand after the restore operation is completed. Dropping a database removesthe transaction logs for that database.

The computation and memory capacity of a DB instance is determined by its DB instanceclass. The DB instance class you need depends on your processing power and memoryrequirements. For more information, see DB instance classes.

Not all DB instance classes are available on all supported SQL Server minor versions. For example, some newer DB instance classes such as db.r6i aren't available on older minor versions. You can use the describe-orderable-db-instance-options AWS CLI command to find out which DB instance classes are available for your SQL Server edition and version.

The Microsoft SQL Server database engine uses role-based security. The master user name that you specify when you create a DB instance is a SQL Server Authentication login that is a member of the processadmin, public, and setupadmin fixed server roles.
