Running your Browser in a VM?

• Install VMware Player or Virtualbox, VMware being faster in my experience
  
• Create a VM with sufficent RAM HD and all CPU cores
  
• Install Ubuntu/Linux Mint/Debian or some lightweight distro with Xcfe or LXDE
• Install VMware/Virtualbox tools
  
• Almost any distro comes with Firefox
• Install Ublock Origin/Noscript/Ghostery
• Disable cookies with a whitelist/use private browsing.

In my experience, running a browser through a VM can slow down scrolling smoothness, video playback and increase ping delay

The correct way to mount an Azure Windows Share

Here is my goal:

• I'd like to have an Azure Windows Share folder that I can mount both in my Windows Azure VM and on my Local Computer.
• I'd like to be able to read and write to files in this share from both the Azure VM and my Local Computer
• I am not necessarily trying to use a VPN

Here is my starting point:

• I have a Windows Azure account
• I have used the PowerShell scripts to create a Windows Azure VM (With Windows Server 2016 DataCenter)
• I have logged into my Azure VM
• I have created a Storage Account (with an Account Key) in my Azure Portal
• I have attempted to follow the instructions in this article: Mount SMB Azure file share on Windows | Microsoft Docs

Here is my problem:

• I am confused on when it says to open Port 445. Port 445 appears to be open on the VM, but the share should be separate from the VM, correct? Where then am I supposed to open port 445? Is there a different machine that I should be accessing via PowerShell
  commands?

Also, is there another way to accomplish my goal (see "Here is my goal" section above") given where I am starting from?
