How can someone prevent hacker malware that consistently ends up in your machine?
Getting to important websites is a real struggle sometimes because I am convinced that there are people that have access to my laptop and no anti malware, spyware or anti-virus is working. A lot of the techniques the hackers use simply use regular Windows permissions protocols (which means they definitely have a background or experience with engineering Microsoft products). I am for example having a very hard time getting past the HP Support home page for software and drivers https://support.hp.com/us-en . I think the extent of this malware and spyware is severe. I'm not sure I can do anything without someone or some people knowing and going through everything on my HP laptop.

New Auto Spam Filter Sends Users to Forum Issues
There seems to be a new auto spam filter procedure. There have been 3 cases recently where users reported that they could not post questions or replies. As soon as they clicked "Save" they got a message that the post was flagged as spam. The message directed them to the "Forum Issues" forum, where I am a moderator.
Can someone verify that the auto spam filter has been modified to direct users to the "Forum Issues" forum? And can someone suggest how the moderators in that forum should handle these situations? We cannot even see the deleted posts, much less undelete them or remove the abusive flag, unless we are also moderators in the forum where the user posted. All we can do is direct the users to email fissues [at] microsoft [dot] com. But I emailed the forum admins at that email address and they are unaware of any new procedure.

On the other hand, auto spam filtering is also a little "abuse" to forcely and wrongly confirm that a non-spam man as a spam……:(

Performance of PowerShell v C
If anyone stumbles here looking for the most efficient way, well, code something in C# or Go. Warp speed compared to powershell or any cacl flavour.
can share code, drop me a line.

C# uses Net same as PS. It is not that much faster.

The handling is much faster in interpretation of steps, logging etc. If you just drop one ACL on a huge folder, it makes no difference, true, .net all the way.
Chrz
BR, Ronald
------------------------------------
Reply:
With the C compiler and the file system API this is true. With C# the difference is negligible when using the pipeline as the pipeline is almost all binary code for this operation.
Enumerating a folder will always cause both programs to be suspended for I/O in blocks which tends to blur the difference. Since ACLs are written one at a time to completion both programs will be suspended on each write.
To prove your point you would need to supply a C# program and a PowerShell script and measure the times. Repeated loops over a set of folders can be averaged to find the overall difference.
If the PowerShell script has screen output it will run much slower as screen output is throttled by the PowerShell EXE engine. This makes PowerShell appear to be slower. C# does not throttle screen output.
Both tests should run with no screen output to make the test fair. You can have start and summary info outside of the time measurement.

Lync 2013 Federated calls call flow question and probably a bug.
Hello all,
Long story short we using one Lync 2013 EE instance for a federation access to a Cisco meeting server where we have conferences. The purpose is that multiple customers can join via federation to that MCU.
Recently we discovered and issue which happens for some reason only from Skype4B client on iOS.
Calls are connected normally, after a few seconds client initiates a re-invite absolutely normal and the problem is that the ACK from the client on the 200 OK is not received at the federation Edge.
The reason for that is most likely the following:
When the OK from the FE enters the internal side of the Edge it has in the record-route header the internal fqdn of the edge pool. And from the external part of the Edge it exits the environment again with the same record. And of course the Lync environment on the other side cannot resolve this internal record and cannot send the ACK message back to us.
I've had a look at normal working samples and when this message goes out of the external part of the edge this record-route is replaced with public access edge fqdn of the edge pool.
The stranger part of this is that is that I have a separate lab environment where this is working properly with the same devices. Both environments run the same Lync2013 CU20.
Have you seen similar issue?

Kiril

Windows Service Stops working but still running
Hi,
I have the following problem and I hope anyone could give some tips to solve my problem.
We developed using C# (Visual Studio 2010) a windows service, which inside a loop, reads and writes data from and into a database and from and into a OPC server.
The problem is that the windows service stops working, but still the executable in task manager and in windows services list, the service looks to be running but it does not do its task.
The problem occurs randomly, sometimes, it happens after 1 day or after 3 weeks, fortunately it does not occur very often but unfortunately this is for the Pharmacy industry and therefore the service must run always!
The windows service writes every step in a log file. And it stops, as already said, in different steps which does not allow to determine if the problem occurs while communicating with Database or with the OPC server.
In my test environment, it does not happen but the scenario it is not the same of course. To debug on site, it is impossible because as mentioned, it could take many days when it occurs.
Could it be related to writing the log file? or an antivirus thing?
I already used in the service something to catch "unhandledexception" like this:
static void MyHandler(object sender, UnhandledExceptionEventArgs args)
but still the problem occurs..
Thanks a lot for your help and time

Need help with combining some scripts
I have three scripts that I run in PowerShell to get information I need from remote workstations. I would like this to be accomplished with just one script instead of three. What I need to get from the remote stations is Hostname, IP Address, MAC Address, Operating System, 32-bit or 64-bit, serial number or service tag number. I need to be able to run the scripts using a list of either Host Names or IP Addresses and export to a CSV file. Here is what I have so far.

Antivirus on RDS Farm
Hi!
We are planning to start RDS farm on diskless servers. All servers will be booting from SAN (including DB).
Users will be uploading, downloading and opening files in there RDS sessions. That is why we need antivirus.
But installing antivirus on RDSH server will cause heavy network load.
Here the questions:
-How can I install antivirus to avoid performance drop?
-If I will install it on RDS Gateway, will antivirus scan RDP traffic between client machine and RDSH, or that traffic is encrypted?
The only idea that I have - install antivirus one file-server where users profiles will be store ("users profile disks" option in session collection properties).

Windows 10 In-place upgrade failed on non-English OS
We are currently testing if the in-place upgrade will work on Windows 7 machine which has a Japanese MUI language installed on it. Our SCCM version is SCCM 2012 R2 SP1 CU2 and we are using the in-place upgrade task sequence posted on this site:https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/configmgrteam/2015/06/16/revised-content-for-the-windows-10-in-place-upgrade-via-task-sequence-for-configuration-manager/
The windows 7 machine that we are using is a newly built machine (deployed via sccm) which has a Japanese MUI language installed and set as a default OS language. When we run the in-place upgrade task sequence we encountered an error in "upgrade windows" step of the TS. So what we did was to uninstall the Japanese MUI using dism command. Note that we use the dism command to uninstall the language pack since we were not allowed to uninstall it in Region and Language control panel because Japanese was set as the default language. Once the Japanese MUI was removed, we were able to upgrade the machine. Note that even if there are multiple language pack installed on the machine, the upgrade will work as long as English was set as the default OS language. Is English language set as a default OS language a requirement in order for you to successfully upgrade to Windows 10? Is there a script that we can add in our ts in order to set English as default OS language before the upgrade step starts?

What we have done is configure a reboot into WinPE and change the language back to English. Then run the upgrade installing the language pack then reboot back into WinPE at the end and change the system language back.
While this might sound like a bad idea we were able to upgrade nearly 100k PCs in 19 languages from Win8 to Win10 most of them encrypted with bitlocker. Biggest technical hurdle was getting the Bcdedit commands right for both GPT and Non GPT disks.

Dear Sir,
Can u check the panther logs in c:\windows\panther ,
Also don't u in the case perform the below,
1) Create a separate golden image with all apps and customization
2) Windows ADK add USMT
3) Build a task sequence to deploy capture user profile
4) Deploy Golden Image
5) restore User Data,
Also as test for any upgrade u can run the following, provide the windows 10 media files and check SETUP.EXE /Auto Upgrade /Quiet /NoReboot
I am sure this would eliminate the complexity of task sequence and provide with insight on upgrade possibility,

"I USED TRANSFER CABLE TO TRANSFER FILES. THEY TRANSFERRED, BUT WON'T OPEN, BECAUSE MY MICROSOFT OFFICE 2007 WILL NOT RUN."
What's the exact error messages? Are there any error code recorded in Event Viewer(Windows Logs\Applications, System)?
According to my know, Office 2007 is no longer part of mainstream support and hasn't been tested on Windows 10. However, Office 2007 will install and run on Windows 10.
If you are using a retailed Office product key, we could download Office 2007 on your Windows 10 device.
However, on October 10, 2017, Office 2007 will reach End of Life. Microsoft would not provide technical support, bug fix and Security fixes, I would recommend you to buy the latest Office version rather than Office 2010.

Hi Gunars
I've been hoping for a reply from Bryan as to how exactly he resolved this by "[using] group policy to force network detection to be enabled." He doesn't appear to be subscribed to this thread anymore, however, as he hasn't replied.
As I've mentioned, I'm very interested in learning what folks (including yourself) mean by "applying GPO." How does one do this? To which GPO object are you referring?
Could you provide some more detail? I'm familiar with how to access the GPO store, but not much further than that. Also, how does one access GPO on Hyper-V Server 2012 R2, which is in essence a Core edition?
Thanks,

In Active Directory (if you have implemented that) Group Policy Management chose new group policy
For servers I found this GPO: Computer Configuration->Windows Settings->Adm Templates -> Windows components -> Remote Desktop Session Host -> Connection -> Select network detection on server
Couldn't find any client configuration in GPO.

Hi Gunārs
I found that setting, albeit under a slightly different path:
Server Policy
\Computer Configuration
\Administrative Templates
\Windows Components
\Remote Desktop Services
\Remote Desktop Session Host
\Connections
=>Select network detection on the server
The change worked briefly on one of our servers, but not the other. Then it suddenly didn't work on either of them.
I applied the latest round of updates to both servers and it started working reliably and consistently on both, no matter what the GPO setting.
I can't be sure, but I suspect it might have been this update. The deadlock description seems to fit the symptom.
Nevertheless, I very much appreciate your advice on how to find the RDP GPOs. I'll be able to use them in the future.
Thanks,

=>Select network detection on the serverThat is the option I used. I just tested again and it does indeed force network detection. I still don't know why it's displayed by default though.

Yes indeed. I can now reliably connect to Hyper-V 2012 R2 from Win8.1 clients. (Note: a reboot is required after setting the GPO.)
Thank you for your assistance.

Hi Bryan,
The 101 warning event is normal for Server 2012 R2 since Connect Time Detection is disabled by default and Continuous Network Detection is enabled by default. For Server 2012 (non R2) both are enabled by default.
The problems you are seeing from Windows 8 and Wyse thin clients may be caused by a network issue specific to your environment and/or some sort of compatibility issue between the client versions and the server. In general I have not had any problems connecting from Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 to Server 2012 R2 via LAN and over the Internet via RDG with the default detection setting.
As a rule I would always recommend you use RDP 8.1 clients to connect to Server 2012 R2 if possible.

SERIAL PORT PASSTHROUGH
Why the hell after so many years is this still not a thing.
VMWare supports this and I'm actually so frustrated that I'm considering switching over. In production environments there are times when we need to use serial ports. I have a brand new server with serial ports and now I have to have my host on my network so that I can use the serial ports, which I do not want.
I thought that I could use named pipes but it turns out they aren't even for passthrough.
WHY MICROSOFT WHY.

You can vote this one up.
or simply use com port redirection. We used that in industrial automation for years and it works quite well.

Hi Shankar.Paulraj,
It exist no official document, but from the technical perspective it is possible for voice recilency to use SBA at the same location.
