Prerequisites We’ll be using VirtualBox for this article, but you should be able to adjust the concept if you’re using another VM application (it will just need to have the ability to start a VM from the command-line).

Generally, certificates are tied to one or more specific domain names, so if you have a certificate for “www.example.com,” you can only use it with this exact domain name. On the other hand, wildcard certificates are issued for a parent domain name and can be used with any subdomain of the parent domain. For instance, a wildcard certificate for *.example.com can be used for “www.example.com,” “account.example.com,” “mail.example.com,” etc. Wildcard certificates, hence, bring the benefit of only having to obtain and renew a single certificate for all your present and future subdomains....
Why Not Use the Default Option? It may seem a little confusing that turning off Windows Defender permanently is trickier than it should be.

As long-time users of Linux know, there’s not much need to “warn” the operating system about removing files. Everything on the hard drive is a file of equal merit.

Uninstalling Programs with a Package Manager Whenever possible, remove the application package using the package manager you used to install it....
