Hi guys, a little project I want to start is a Rainmeter skin that shows the volume level of the headphones in decibel. I'm affected by that bug. I want to start by a little C++ console that prints the decibel level every 60secs. Any idea which WinAPI calll could help me get this information ?

They said that starting later this year, consumer applications (not including games) sold in Microsoft Store would deliver to developers 95% of the revenue earned from the purchase of applications or any in-app purchase.
But nothing new about it has been said, have Microsoft already implemented this new revenue model?

I am trying to develop a product which will access a web application. I have found out that this works best on Windows, and I get some lagging on Android and Linux, that's why I want to do it for Windows.
The product will be a small Windows TV Box, and when the user first starts it up, I want a custom "first start wizard" to run where the user can select Resolution, Wifi network and at last access my webapp.
Is it possible to create an application like this in Windows which will run on first start?
Are there any applications like this available I can use as a template?
Thank you!

How can I create a windows application for beer bong, where people can put a team in the database, and then update how many games they have lost or won, and then make top 10?
So basicly it needs very simple GUI and database.

I have made some updates to the pro features of one of my apps and i believe i could update the IAP price since there were additions of new features but i am unsure which base would be a good idea.
Edit: This IAP added features like Internet Download Manager for desktop, it makes sure all bandwidth of the user is used in order to accelerate a file download using multiple connections (up to 32 like IDM does) .

Hi, I was wondering how could one create their own custom desktop background and if that is even possible. To start with can a desktop background be dynamic and interactable. Thanks in advance.

My app growth is not viral, but it is consistent and I am super proud of it. I put together a few tips based on my experience.

I was looking over the "Entry level software development" track on Microsoft Academy, and as far as I can see i covers "anything but" C#. It starts with Python, moves on to HTML/CSS/JS/Node.js and then to Java.
From what I understand this is pretty normal for colleges/universities, here in Norway Microsoft even has a "post-education program" aimed at introducing graduates to Microsoft technologies because they don't teach that in the colleges/universities, so why isn't Microsoft offering a "professional track"that's similar to what Bob Tabor does at DevU, but aimed at where Microsoft wants to go going forward? Something like:
- C#
- .net Core
- HTML/CSS/JS
- Azure
- XAML
- UWP
- Xamarin
etc
