It's some kind of locked-down version of GlobalProtect that's integrated with a TPM module to prevent machines that aren't running our corporate image on corporate-approved laptops from being able to connect.
There's probably some kind of workaround, but I'm lazy and it's easier just to power up the Windows machine now and then.
I only ever use Windows on my work computer, and only when I need access to a resource that requires our Windows-only VPN.
But seriously, "just use linux" is worthless advice. Lots of people use Windows for specific applications that don't exist in the Linux ecosystem. For example, there are no Linux applications that come close to AutoCAD, and it simply doesn't work on Linux.
Better advice would be to get new (or newer used) hardware if possible, if you absolutely need to use Windows, since this workaround will inevitably be "corrected" by Microsoft. Then you can do whatever you like with the old hardware, such as install and learn Linux at your own pace.
If DAW means Digital Audio Workstation, have you tried Ardour?
I'm more worried about the weird white bump on her right cheek, and the short left arm on the blurry person standing in the background boat.
The best thing about this is that it's also on the x-axis.
That's a lot more clever than actually building this grotesque idea.

If you take video, post it as an MPEJ.
I'd like to see that. Post it in jraphics interchange format.
You run Arch and move on.
(Am I doing this right?)
Nope. It's a lower level kernel API that has to be accessed at boot via a driver. The API I was thinking of - and I use the term "thinking" loosely, here - is an API that userspace applications can take advantage of to scan files after boot is already complete.
Not many, but plenty use various corporate applications that are Windows-only.
