MS Word at work just complained that it cannot find the file that I told it to open. The solution was to use the File -> Open menu and choose the "Open and repair" button.
The purpose of this exercise - install Gentoo where all disk partitions are encrypted. Boot from a system rescue disk and partition the disk - use GPT partition table where the first partition is reserved, second is the boot, and the third one is for the rest of the data.

Remotely connecting to a Windows PC with a Microsoft "passwordless" is possible and I finally found a simple workaround at https://cmdrkeene.com/remote-desktop-with-microsoft-account-sign-in/ Copying it here is it does not get lost: On the PC hosting the remote desktop session (running Windows Pro or better), run the following command, replacing the example email address with your Microsoft Account email address that you use to login to the computer. runas /u:MicrosoftAccount\username@example.com winver This command runs the “winver” program under the credentials of the user account specified. It sounds (and is) pretty simple, but what it does in the background is caches your Microsoft Account credentials.
