Windows Server 2016 end of support: the app is the problem

Windows Server 2016 support ends on 12 January 2027, and nothing switches off. The friction is the application that will not move — and ESU is priced so that waiting a year costs the same as not waiting.

OpenAI Dots: decide these four things before you enable one
