About this tag
The tag 'rating' on WindowsForum.com covers a variety of contexts where numerical or categorical ratings are used. In software development, discussions include changing a database column from int to double for a Rating property in Entity Framework, and resolving dependency errors during migration. Microsoft Store app developers can use web badges to promote their products and potentially improve ratings. Security bulletins from Microsoft often include a severity rating, such as 'Important' for vulnerabilities in Windows SMB Server or Kerberos. Windows Experience Index (WEI) ratings are discussed in the context of laptop performance, with users asking whether a score of 5.6 is adequate for educational use. The tag also appears in entertainment threads about TV show ratings and viewer engagement.
