In my part of the world less than half of the job descriptions fit your description and they are underpaid and overcrowded. As of today the highest required jobs here are embedded development (no finger needed as interaction with the end user is minimal if present) and data science.

I'm really interested in this. I've become quite fond of WPF over the years, but have very few chances to use it any more because most of my job-oriented work is asp.net now.

0) Start with Google.
1) Start paying attention to your surroundings. Look at the top of this page and you will see in bright red letters that this isn't the place for technical queries. So if you want to make people happy, post this in the right place. Happy people give better help than annoyed ones do...
2) Post it here:http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/ask.aspx[^] but think first: Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind - we only get what you tell us to work from. So write your question based on that!
3) Explain exactly what you have tried, and where you are stuck. The more accurate you are the better the response.

Microsoft office gives you support for changing the language by giving options from right to left it will change the display to show the menus and buttons right-to-left and/or change individual files so their contents read from right to left.

I would file this under everyone comes into each task with their own notions of what things mean.
No matter what you write down. the only thing they will see is Copy the VM. Not with networking and environment settings. All they see is copy the VM.
Sorry but this happens so often. People read the first 3 words Subject Verb Direct object and scurry off to complete the task. Assuming they "know" everything else about copying the VM
To err is human to really elephant it up you need a computer

oh you didn't join that meeting...
where people were trying to save the livelihood of hundreds of families. I'm not kidding, it was elephanting serious.
I was sitting in my car on my cell in this conference call. IT had no idea they were supposed to be backing up this stuff. In all fairness, IT really didn't know. We all do our jobs. I just happened to have backed things up the week before.
Then comes that guy. The paranoid "these people have no clue" guy. I cleared my throat and said, "Jim, I have backups from last week." It got really quiet. And the owner of the company said, "you have to be shitting me..."
I'm happy I was there. I know a lot of these people. We do serious work folks...

Their notion of "net 30 days" was "whenever I remember to do paperwork" . I had to stop work on the guy a couple of times to get paid. It wasn't like the source of the money was a problem (largish university), he just hated dealing with ... paperwork.

truth - as a consultant (all of you can chime in) I have found you take care of your network. we call these co-workers and friends who have their balls hanging in the wind with yours.

Try raising your rate first!
With all of switching around, they probably lost the original agreements.
Send them a new agreement to execute.

yeah, I pointed that out, but I have a plan....

To follow up my rant, Rick you owe me a beer. I'll buy the next round...
this morning came the team meeting call. I drove home the point - image is image. 1 == 1. The new VM is not equating to that. Explain to me what your definition of image is? Well, we migrated it... (after 3 months of copy the elephanting server ffs).
For what it's worth, I understand why the did what they did but "not appropriate for the lounge".

I almost had it at the third try but the word I used wasn't in the dictionary. For a good reason; I thought it had 5 letters but in actuality it had 6. The word was rejected, I didn't locate several letters, wandered off and then finally solved the puzzle.

The Windows 11 "taskbar" is disgusting. It should be at the left of the screen, with real icons, with text, progress, etc. They downgraded my developer PC to a bloody iPhone.
