Looking for tech documentation solution

So I'm on the lookout for something, but I don't know how to briefly describe it. I want something to help me document various projects at work. It's not uncommon for me to spend a week setting something up, and it works for 2 years and then has a problem -- and I have to re-learn everything about it from the ground up before I can start solving it. For example, I'm setting up a new VMWare server today, and I just know I'm going to forget some of the details on it -- so I want to be able to type out some of the specs and processes, maybe use some tags, a coupel hyperlinks to more info, and be able to search for it a year from now. Does that make sense? Anybody have any suggestions?

This is a non self hosted answer. Apologize for that. But personally I use one note for this purpose at work. At home I have a lot less so I just keep a txt document.

Sticking around in case someone posts a good solution I haven’t heard of.
