Get data from an Iframe on a local webpage
You could setup a reverse proxy with url mapping. You'd need a local www server running on your pc to host your local js (apache could do both of the above). Then when accessing the proxy, your browser would see both targets ( the external website & your local website) under the same domain and... -

PC gamers - changing server into gaming rig
If it's win 10, have a look in task manager details on the start up tab. It shows avg start up time for processes started during win start. Could also be a scheduled task set to start on startup/shutdown, which is misbehaving. -
Storing 4M+ json snippets
We don't know how your app works. If you access the image first and then go looking for the related json, then you could embed the json in the image and save doing the subsequent lookup. Google for "steganography". -
openVPN on Azure

FreeAgent Alternatives
I feel your pain, albeit from HSBC to Xero. Not only did they change to open banking but they recently changed the card export csv format to put those contactless "wave" symbols in the payment details, which threw out all the Xero payee matching.
