The Apple Configurator tool is a MacOS application that allows you to create and edit a device profile, which can be downloaded from a webserver and used to suitably configure devices in the Apple ecosystem.
Does an equivalent tool exist for the Microsoft ecosystem?
Most specifically, is there a Windows 10 compatible Windows application that generates a suitable device profile, that can be downloaded from a webserver and used to suitably configure devices in the Microsoft ecosystem?
There are quite many similar tools for Windows 10. Windows 10 has its own MDM solution and has distinct features. There is another good Mobile Device Management Solution for Windows 10 application i.e MobiLock Pro. It's more simplified and easy to use compared to other MDM for Windows 10.

My current Universal Windows Application running on the dragonboard 410C is using the default Microsoft Zira TTS through the Windows.Media.SpeechSynthesis utility.
I know that you can add additional TTS voices on Windows 10 like Microsoft George, Catherine etc. from the settings menu. But how do I install these on the Windows 10 IOT version so that my application can make use of it on the DragonBoard 410C? I want to be able to extend this to use SAPI 5 compliant voices as well. How would I set this up on the dragonboard?
I am trying to setup a Windows 7 Virtual Machine in Azure and I see a list of Windows Server options, but not a plain Windows 7 Professional.
I need Windows 7 for testing purposes.
Do they only support server VMs?
Edit: After Searching I found that Windows 7 Enterprise N is supported. I guess I could use that. But it seems lame that they would not support something so common as Windows 7 Professional...
Windows 7 (and all Windows client OSs) are not supported, or more importantly, licensed for use on ANY cloud service.
Azure gets around this limitation by only allowing Windows Client machines to be run as MSDN development machines. (I imagine being Microsoft helps too)
If you have an MSDN subscription, you will have access to Win7, Win8, and Win10 machines.
So if you wanted to build a business running Windows client machines, licensing would restrict that, but if you're using it as a development machine, that is ok.
So you couldn't, for instance, give everyone in an office access to a Win 10 Machine on Azure.
Currently I am using Ubuntu linux and I want to create a WinObjC app on Linux plateform. Is there any way to create WinObj apps on linux.
Sorry to disapoint you, but unfortunately there is not. WinObjC is intended to bring iOS apps to Windows 10. Basically it just enables you to write Windows 10 apps in Objective-C but you still need a Windows 10 machine to compile it.
A Windows 10 device and Visual Studio are mandatory at the moment, to create WinObjC apps.

I'm planning to develop an app for Android using Qt Quick Controls and an Android Emulator. The same set of components is said to work on Windows Phone. Thus I'd like to build the app for Windows Phone as well.
Unfortunately, Qt for Windows Phone is only available for Windows.
I don't own any Windows phone. I'm using a computer running Linux.
Is it possible to build the app for Windows Phone and test it in an Emulator without virtualizing/dual-booting Windows
Well there is Wine. This is what wikipedia says about it;
Wine (short for Wine Is Not an Emulator) is a free and open source compatibility layer software application that aims to allow applications designed for Microsoft Windows to run on Unix-like operating systems. Wine also provides a software library, known as Winelib, against which developers can compile Windows applications to help port them to Unix-like systems.
You can find more info about Wine here; https://www.winehq.org/
I haven't tried it before but since it says "allow applications designed for Microsoft Windows to run on Unix-like operating systems," I'm thinking it should work.
This is your only option. If it doesn't work, then i guess you should think about running windows on virtual machine or dual booting with windows. Good luck!
I am working on a remote desktop application which works fine on windows 7 and its previous version. but In windows 8 mirror driver has removed so that we have to develop the same remote desktop feature using DXGI. I have read the documentation but I want to know Is there any limitation of DXGI ?
If any one experience some limitation while creating desktop emulation
in windows 8 please share.
