I'm inclined to make the switch from DD to RD too. Since I need to build images and test Windows containers, I'm looking for Windows-specific experiences with RD Is there anything similar to those two videos or a good and fairly recent review written from Windows OS perspective?

Rancher Desktop does not support Windows containers at the moment. Please see this issue to track it: https://github.com/rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop/issues/255
At the moment I'm not aware of any recent reviews of Rancher Desktop that are specific to Windows. Your best bet is to download it and put it through its paces. You can always cleanly uninstall it by doing a factory reset (Troubleshooting > Factory Reset) before uninstalling the usual way.

I think I've made a silly mistake: I was reading this document which made me think Rancher supports Windows containers, hence the Rancher Desktop does - I concluded 🤦‍♂️ https://ranchermanager.docs.rancher.com/v2.5/pages-for-subheaders/use-windows-clusters#os-and-docker-requirements Thank you
