      @scottalanmiller
      I treat Windows Defender like iOS mail on iPhone. It's there.. and it works... but I'll be using MS Outlook instead of native mail app. Nothing wrong with it, but it doesn't have a lot of features other competitor offers (as you have mentioned). Still, I have no intention to disable it.

      Ha! Perfect analogy

      @stess https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/platformspfe/2014/01/20/integrating-xaml-into-powershell/ look at this. It gives the basics of integrating XAML into a PowerShell script and might be right what you are looking for.

      You likely want to make an app that talks to email via something like IMAP and parses them that way.

      did you looked at this?

      it uses the Remove method and seems quite straightforward to me. You just need to rework the for loop or simply add a counter to it to know which row has to be purged.

      @dustinb3403 said in [help?] powershell - fixed credential for prompforcredential:

      @stess you can pass credentials as a parameter within powershell.

      After reading the article, and tinkering with the script, I found that I am passing the credential in the wrong function. I try to pass it in the testing, but I should have pass it in the connection phase.

      Also, I'm surprised this article is so easy to understand.

      So I guess I get the "Best answer" 😛

      Yes you did :winking_face:

      Always worth asking.... is AD even needed? Maybe moving to local accounts would make more sense.

      Not a bad idea. I’ve been going that route for mobile users for awhile.

      How do you manage them? or do you just not worry about them?

      You can use IaaS such as JumpCLoud or anything else.

      Why replace it with another version of AD?

      JumpCloud is not AD.

      I didn't even see the VM bit until I quoted it. I was just assuming since he was considering buying a used server in the first place that he may be interested in having something capable of doing more than just a NAS.

      I did the opposite, assumed that since he was looking at a NAS that he only wanted storage 🙂

      You could try using psexec to call powershell to do this. .

      Just a thought

      where would you be calling it to? Wherever you call - you have to have the correct permissions, and the AD commandlets have to be there.

      @scottalanmiller said in Need idea for running ethernet cable (roughly 70ft in distance):

      Consider very subtle in wall "patches." Are you allowed to do that? Not technically. But it will look nice and in an inspection, absolutely no one will figure out that you modified anything. You do them back to back in the wall so you don't need to run a cable straight through the wall. You can then use a patch cable from either side to get through the house.

      I had to read this a few times to get that Scott was recommending that you install ethernet wallplates on the two sides of the wall with a straight through cable between them, then you can use it as a patch and to the normal onlooker, it looks like it belongs there.

      That makes sense now.

      You could write-output the whole command something like:

      write-output "my command with all the parameters here"|out-file -filepath export.csv mycommand with all the parameters here|export-csv -path export.csv -append -notypeinformation

      Or something similar (code typed on the fly, likely has a syntax error or two)

      These works to certain extend of what I am looking for, but it needs some tweaking to work the way I am expecting the result.
      Thanks!

      How are you wanting the result to look?

      The script doesn't appear to be showing false on non-inheritance. There either True or False for every member of the folder regardless of their inheritance.

      I am looking into this post right now as it was brought up in Spiceworks.
      It shows the result I am hoping for where non-inheritance = false and inherited = true.

      Ah, okay. I thought you wanted to only see the ones where Inherited=False...

      So you want to see everything, and whether or not it is inherited?

      Edit: Also for the CSV File generated, the layout is

      Folder, User, Is Inherited

      Is Inhertied is True or False.

      Is best and more efficient to buy a new powersupply rather than spending time on an older workstation. The fan needs to be desoldered and then solder the new one back in. That's a lot of time of labor that can readily be done with a $34 part.

      the extension to XML file, but I am not sure where to start.

      Why is your admin station still Windows 7? You can upgrade for free.
      Once you upgrade, you'll have the latest version of PowerShell and you won't have these types of issues of compatibility.

      We planned for Q2 next year. We just moved into new office space, so we don't want to introduce too much changes.

      I'd only update your PC right now. This will let you move forward without affecting your users.

      S

      So... here's an update. I called my local shops to get some pricing for this service... but most of them asking for $60+tax or more. The cheapest I got is $45 an hour for a somewhat shady craiglist post.

      My thought right now is to get a new S3 from Newegg, do a mobo swap to get the pictures out, then return the device in its original(ish) condition. What are your recommendation?

      I popped the broken phone opens, and I do not see any warranty sticker anywhere.... anyone has any experience on this?

      @NDC @Dashrender I would recommend this tool then
      https://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/67-microsoft-windows-and-office-iso-download-tool

      It works well for version 7 to 10 amd office downloads.

      I had a user complain about this... I figured it was an update that did it, just hadn't bothered to look into it closer.
