Introduce Yourself

Hello, I am ABDU, Glad to be here

Welcome! We don't have any aspirin here, but enjoy the forums!
 

Hello world. I am just a power user. Well, in reality, I wanted to become part of the forum in my frustration on where Windows is heading. I do not see true improvements to the OS. I do not understand the architectural decisions being made by the MS team on the OS. I need to stick with it for work reasons and not keen to switch to Apple either.
 

Welcome to the forum, Aurel! It's great to have a passionate .NET (C#) coder like you onboard. Your willingness to contribute and collaborate on tools or projects is fantastic. If you're looking for inspiration or collaboration opportunities:
  • Check out ongoing threads in the Programming and Scripting section for discussions on utilities, tools, or potential project needs.
  • Feel free to share tools you've already built—community feedback is invaluable.
  • Let the forum users know what areas or domains (e.g., automation, data processing, system utilities) interest you most for potential collaboration.
Looking forward to seeing your contributions—happy coding! 😊
 

Hi, I'm new to the forum. maybe the wrong place to post this. anyone dealing with KB5014754 and the May 10, 2022, update KB5013944?
I manage a small environment with less than 100 users and have a redundant pair of Sever 2022 DC's . For the users in AD I use password based authentication - no certificates. I checked certmgr and did not find any references under "personal" either. The DC's were migrated from 2012 R2 in Aug / September of 2023 and I do not have the May 10, 2022 update installed.

Should I leave the environment as-is since my understanding is that Microsoft is not mandating certificate-based authentication at this time, or am I at risk if I do nothing. TIA

Hi quark,
Welcome to the forum and yes of course this is the wrong place but you asked so my advice is assume Microsoft will find a way to fuck up your environment sooner or later as they turn things off without testing or even letting you know

Are you at risk (aways) = yes but what to do about it needs a plan ie, move to a better sever or lock your current one away... Both

Also goto the forum server section open a new post and give us what details you can including budget , special needs etc... there are lots of experienced managers happy to take a look

Welcome saberman, you know windows 10 is finishing up... You going to jump on the Linux wagon or 11?

Neither just yet. I think I'll wait for Windows 11 to settle down. Might also need some hacks to get some of the older software I use to run on it.

Running VirtualBox from Oracle. Might setup a test VM.
 

Hello everyone! I'm Bozdrick, an experienced Windows user who has been diving deep into the world of Windows for quite some time now. I've tinkered with countless settings, troubleshooted my fair share of issues, and always enjoy exploring new ways to get the most out of my system. I'm excited to join this community and share my knowledge, as well as learn from all of you. Looking forward to some great discussions and collaborations here! 😊
 

Hi! I'm New in this Forum. I will post a audio of a mix of Windows Wistler and 2K.
 

Greeting programs, I too am a far too experienced Windows user who was hired at my current company due to my extensive knowledge of WinNT, but I've been hear a while and now work in Product Security. BSEE, CISSP and then too many workshops that didn't result in certifications because distractions and no need. Just shy of 60 and looking to learn more so I can share with others.

Points to anyone who recognizes my profile pic.
 

Hi Aurel, welcome to the community! It’s always great to meet someone passionate about coding—especially a fellow C# enthusiast. As for tools and utilities, here are a few favorites in the .NET ecosystem that might spark some ideas:
  • Visual Studio Code: A lightweight editor with a rich extension ecosystem. Plugins like C# (powered by OmniSharp) greatly enhance productivity.
  • JetBrains Rider: A powerful, cross-platform .NET IDE that many developers swear by. It’s not free, but its integrated features (like advanced refactoring and code analysis) can be a game changer.
  • ReSharper: If you’re using Visual Studio, this extension brings an abundance of productivity and code quality improvements.
  • dotnet CLI Tools: Sometimes the simplest way to streamline your workflow is to leverage the command-line. Tools like the dotnet CLI and associated global tools can really speed things up.
  • NuGet Package Explorer: Handy for quickly exploring and testing NuGet packages.
I’m always on the lookout for cool projects or utilities that help streamline the development process—so if you have a project or need a co-worker too, feel free to give a shout! Also, if you stumble upon any new phenomenal tools, consider sharing them here with the community. Happy coding, and see you around!
