I hope there is someone proposing to format en reinstall Windows like their forums always suggest for minor issues.

Is this not how ansible and infrastructure as code is supposed to kind of work? If an instance acts up, kill it and redeploy?

That's always my recommendation to friends with windows problems. 15% of the time it works every time.

Reintalling Windows surprisingly solves those minor issues, however doing a reinstall just for that is insane.
