    Backup of large PST file creating secondary issues

    Synctoy doesn't really give a backup, it gives a copy. If the original is screwed so is the copy. Eliminating anything you have done.

    The worst has happened: MS removing GroupPolicy settings for Win10pro

    If you have an Enterprise and have AD, then you should be running the Enterprise edition. Doesn't seem like a hard one to me.

    Virtual Machine Isolation

    You really shouldn't use a DMZ, you should only open up the required ports. Your concern is valid, but it is really hard to escape the isolation of a virtual machine. If you want even more security, consider running the free version of ESXi.

    VM audio passthrough?

    You dont need a USB sound card if you connect via RDP. I am listening to music now via RDP from a Win7 VM hsoted on ESXi running on a Dell R920.

    VM audio passthrough?

    Have you tried via RDP? Passing through an entire USB controller is kinda overkill. If you really need to do this, what you could do is get a USB sound card and plug the speakers and just pass the USB device, NOT the port, through to the VM. But I would really just use RDP its much easier...

    Non-profit org file transfer software recommendation

    This also sounds like something that can be done with a Powershell script and BITS. Not pretty but it might work.

    Backup just to have another safe copy of files

    While that would work for simple stuff, it wouldn't work for scheduled backups that do differentials or anything like that. Plus it would waste a ton of space.

    Backup just to have another safe copy of files

    There is nothing wrong with having them "locked" in an image. Its all you can really do on windows, because at least on the client side, there is no such thing as versions. Macrium Reflect will allow you to mount the image as a drive and freely explore it in Windows.
