virtually
For all purposes
Virtually means almost entirely or for all practical purposes: The town was virtually deserted.
It suggests something so close to complete that any difference is negligible.
In computing, virtually refers to things simulated by software rather than existing physically: virtually hosted servers.
The older sense "in essence though not in name" still appears: He was virtually running the company.
