SaltStack Minion on Windows Server 2012 R2 - salt-stack

I would like to install a Salt minion on Windows Server 2012 R2 (64 bit).
In documentation (http://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/topics/installation/windows.html)
I have found that 64 bit version is tested on Windows 7 64bit and Windows Server 2008R2 64bit.
Has anyone been experiencing any issues with minion on Windows Server 2012 R2?
Note: I posted this question on SaltStack user group, but no answers were provided.
Thank you in advance!

We have users on Windows Server 2012 R2. There have been no reported issues that are 2012 R2 specific.
I always recommend testing before pushing to production, though!

TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 in windows server 2012 r2

My question is simple. My server's operating system is Windows Server 2012 r2 and all updates were made on it.
When I run the iiscrypto I couldn't find TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 cipher suite. To find this, should I use Windows server 2016 or is there another way to get it?
Microsoft has a docs page that lists all the Windows versions and their cipher suites.
First server version to support this cipher suite is indeed Windows Server 2016.
Unfortunately Windows 2012 Server doesn't support tls-ecdhe-rsa-with-aes-256-gcm-sha384 or 256/128 Ciphers.

Is BizTalk Server 2010 supported by Windows 10?

I'm unable to find anywhere online where it states that BizTalk Server 2010 is supported/not supported fully by Windows 10.
No, not even BizTalk 2013 R2 is supported on Windows 10 as can be seen at Summary of 64-bit support, operating systems and SQL Server versions supported by BizTalk Server and also
Hardware and Software Requirements for BizTalk Server 2013 and 2013 R2 as it is not listed on either page as a supported operating system.
There is a related question about BizTalk 2013 R2 and windows 10 called BizTalk Server Configuration failing to create group. The conclusion for that is, yes you can run BizTalk 2013 R2 on Windows 10, but as per a answer and comments there it probably will not be supported by Microsoft for a Production environment and could break with updates and patches applied to the operating system.
No, not directly but that shouldn't matter because running BizTalk Server on any client OS is never the best option.
Yes, you can run BizTalk Server 2010 in a Windows Server 2008 R2 VM using Client Hyper-V. You need Windows 10 Professional or Enterprise but this would be the best way to do it even if the client OS supported it directly.

BizTalk Server Configuration failing to create group

I'm trying to configure a BizTalk server in BizTalk Server 2013 R2. I'm using Windows 10 and a local DB.
I can create the Enterprise SSO and the Business Rule Engine but not the BizTalk Server Group and the BizTalk Runtime.
It gives me the following error:
Failed to read "Software\Microsoft\BizTalk Server\3.0\Administration" from the registry.
The network path was not found.
I've tried everything I could imagine, any ideas as why I can't create the group?
EDIT: After trying everything I could imagine, the problem was in the name of my machine that was too big. Because of that, BizTalk could not write in the registry.
BizTalk Server 2013 R2 is not supported on Windows 10.
You can look this up in the official BizTalk Server documentation, which you can find here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj248697.aspx
Supported for BizTalk Server 2013 R2 are: Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 SP1.
Windows 10 is not supported.
After trying everything I've searched on the web, I finally managed to solved the problem.
Because my machine name was too long (15 characters), BizTalk could not edit the registry. After changing it to 4 characters long, I solved the problem and I was able configure the server.
