I have the same problem mentioned in the answer to [WayBack] Terminating a script in PowerShell – Stack Overflow: confused by most answers, and keeping to forget what each method means (there is Exit, Return, Break and (if you love exception handling to do simple flow control), Throw.
So here is the full quote of what [WayBack] User New Guy answered:

Some links for my archive; note that pure tar-pits by now are also hampering large email sender services like SendGrid, Mailgun and Amazon SES.
So the below links are for educational and historic purposes only.
I assembled these links because out of a sudden, Ring 2FA verification emails could not be delivered any more.
Ring 2FA came mandatory towards the end of February 2020.
Some links on that:
The purpose of Two-Step Verification (2SV) is to protect you from bad actors logging into your Ring account, even if those bad actors have the proper login credentials. This feature will be enabled by default for all users and, unlike 2FA, there is no user option to opt out.

For my link archive:
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Joint Hypermobility-Related Disorders are blanket terms for two etiologically and clinically heterogeneous groups of pathologies that usually appears in childhood. These conditions are seen by different medical fields, such as psychiatry in the case of ASD, and musculoskeletal disciplines and genetics in the case of hypermobility-related disorders. Thus, a link between them is rarely established in clinical setting, despite a scarce but growing body of research suggesting that both conditions co-occur more often than expected by chance. Hypermobility is a frequent sign of hereditary disorders of connective tissue (e.g. Ehlers-Danlos syndromes, Marfan syndrome), on which the main characteristic is the multisystem fragility that prone to proprioceptive and motor coordination dysfunction hence to trauma and chronic pain. Considering the high probability that pain remains disregarded and untreated in people with ASD due to communication and methodological difficulties, increasing awareness about the interconnection between ASD and hypermobility-related disorders is relevant, since it may contribute to identify those ASD patients vulnerable to suffer from pain.

Interesting:
Some corporate networks are behind HTTP proxy servers that use NTLM authentication. Dropbox currently doesn’t support this kind of proxy authentication. However, some users have reported some success using an intermediate proxy, such as [WayBack] NTLMAPS or [WayBack] cntlm, to get Dropbox running on their network.
This article explains steps on various systems to install proxies that support NTLM authentication: [WayBack] Allow Dropbox to Authenticate With a NTLM Proxy Server – The Unofficial Dropbox Wiki.
Need to try these. Maybe they work for Copy.com too (:
Some other links around HTTP Fiddler that might be relevant: Read the rest of this entry »

Wasn’t the European Union going to stop moving clocks twice a year? Yup, as of it 2021 it should have stopped with the [Wayback] Seasonal clock change in the EU | Mobility and Transport.
But then Brexit came along, followed by Covid-19, and earlier 2021, this happened: [Wayback] Clock stops on EU plan to scrap daylight savings time
Contentious move to abolish mandatory seasonal clock changes ‘not top priority now’
So tomorrow it is winter time again, and we need to move the clock, hopefully for the last time, but hopefully not like in the mirror of the Dutch comic DirkJan – Wikipedia by [WayBack] Annelies Hofstede on Twitter: “… “, which is done transitioning to Winter time – Wikipedia:
This is the original summer time version of the DirkJan comic:

If you enable File and Printer sharing on Windows, by default the firewall only enables it on private networks for the local subnet as remote address (for domain networks, it allows “Any”) as seen on the picture below.
When your network consists of multiple subnets, for instance when it is large, or multiple sites are connected via site-to-site VPN (often called LAN-to-LAN VPN) solutions, then these subnets cannot access each others files or printers.
Realising these default blocks, they are easy to resolve as explained in for instance [WayBack] Windows firewall blocking network shares through VPN server – Server Fault by [WayBack] Brian:
I realize this is almost three years late, but I just spent today fighting with the same problem. I did get it working, so I figured I’d share. Note that I’m using a Windows 7 PC as the file server; other versions might need slightly different configuration.
In the “Windows Firewall with Advance Security”, there are several “File and Printer Sharing” rules:
- File and Printer Sharing (NB-Datagram-In)
- File and Printer Sharing (NB-Name-In)
- File and Printer Sharing (NB-Session-In)
- File and Printer Sharing (SMB-In)
(There are additional rules, but I didn’t care about printer sharing. The same changes would apply if you want those.)
File and Printer Sharing appears to default to “Local subnet” only. You’ll need to add the subnet of your VPN clients.
Modify each of those rules as follows:
- Open the Properties dialog for the rule.
- Navigate to the Scope tab.
- In the Remote IP address section, the “These IP addresses” radio button should be selected.
- Click “Add…” next to the list of addresses. By default, only “Local subnet” is in the list.
- In the “This IP address or subnet:” field, enter the subnet assigned to your VPN clients (this is probably 192.168.1.0/24 in the OP, but if not, it’s the subnet assigned to the VPN adapter on the client side), then click OK.
- If you’re also using IPv6, add the VPN client IPv6 subnet as well.
That was enough for me to access file shares over the VPN.
(If you want to do it manually, you need to open TCP ports 139 and 445, and UDP ports 137 and 138, in the file server’s firewall.)
Hopefully I will find some time in the future to automate this using PowerShell, as netsh names are localised do hard to make universal.
These links might help me with that:
