![]() It was handy, always there and automatically set up with each new Windows installation, so I started using it more and more. Years ago, I started the inexpensive OneDrive subscription ($1.99/month) to add 100 GB of cloud storage to the free 10 GB Microsoft offers, giving me plenty of space for these extra files. File syncing between machines (and through the cloud) is very useful. Of course, everything is backed up, but it's important to be able to quickly share a file from one machine to another, such as a screenshot taken on one machine to another where I'm preparing documentation. ![]() All code is stored online in either BitBucket or GitHub but there are many other files that are useful when working with these projects such as notes, sample imports and exports, contracts, and other related materials that don't fit in the source code repository. In addition to my main desktop machine, I have eight virtual machines (two just for testing, one with Windows 7 and Delphi 5), and a laptop with Windows 11. Supporting a wide variety of projects using different versions of Delphi and a mix of databases, I keep several development environments alive and active.
