I needed to figure out what was wrong with a Canon MF8200C UFRII LT XPS.
Luckily, this still worked for administrator access [WayBack] Default admin password for Canon Multifunction Printers:

windows – How to list all files in directory/subdirectory without path name CMD? – Stack Overflow
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/07/30
I needed all .dproj files in all subdirectories, but only their filenames without any directory names.
With directory names, this is easy:
dir /s /b *.dproj
The answers at [WayBack] windows – How to list all files in directory/subdirectory without path name CMD? – Stack Overflow give the below kind of output.
[WayBack] forfiles embeds all filenames within quotes:
forfiles /m *.dproj /s "Foo.dproj" "Bar.dproj"
A more convoluted [WayBack] for loop gives them without quotes where n stands for name and x for extension including .:
for /r %a in (*.dproj) do @echo %~nxa Foo.dproj Bar.dproj

DISM fix for Windows 8.1 high CPU usage of TiWorker.exe
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/07/27
This worked for Windows 8.1 as well: Trying fix for Windows 8 high CPU usage of TiWorker.exe (via: bit-tech.net) « The Wiert Corner – irregular stream of stuff
DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
After more than one hour of running, it:
- freed up more than a gigabyte of disk space. Which on an SSD based VM is a lot.
- solved the huge memory footprint of TiWorker.exe on the right.

Windows FireWall administration: I need to put some time in learning netsh
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/07/16
It seems netsh is something different than bash or csh as it is the command-line interface to many (all?) Windows Firewall settings.
So I need to put some time into learning it.
This gives you all the names of firewall rules, ready for text searching it (with find, grep, etc):
netsh advfirewall firewall show rule name=all
An alternative might be PowerShell as it too has a lot of Windows Firewall plumbing: [WayBack] How to manage the Windows firewall settings with PowerShell – James O’Neill’s blog
Choices, choices.

When you cannot RDP to a target because of “CredSSP-encryption Oracle remediation”: apply your target security patches.
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/06/29
If you get the below error, then your RDP target server needs to be patched.
You can choose to stay vulnerable and modify your policy or registry settings as explained in the first linked article below: that is a temporary “workaround” which I do not recommend. Please update your RDP target servers in stead.
English:
[Window Title] Remote Desktop Connection [Content] An authentication error has occurred. The function requested is not supported Remote computer: rdp.example.org This could be due to CredSSP-encryption Oracle remediation. For more information, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=866660 [OK]

Posted by jpluimers on 2018/06/29
Some historic perspective (although on Windows since quite a long time, you can rename files before replacing them: that works very well):
[WayBack] Wer kann mir erklären: Warum braucht ein Windows10-Update heute immer noch mehrere Reboots? – Kristian Köhntopp – Google+
Zu MS-DOS Zeiten gab es kein Netz und kein Multiprocessing. Als Netz und Fileshares dann dazu kamen, funktionierten viele Anwendungen nicht korrekt.
Zu dieser Zeit hat Microsoft die Entscheidung getroffen, vom Betriebssystem aus Mandatory File Locking für geöffnete Dateien zu implementieren, es sei denn, ein Prozeß stellt das von sich aus anders ein.
Mandatory File Locking heißt in diesem Fall, daß nix und niemand eine Datei anfassen kann, die offen ist, Ein laufendes Executeable, eine DLL oder ein Logfile sind aber immer offen.
Daher gibt es einen Reboot Hook, mit dem ein Updater Dateiersetzungen für einen System Neustart hinterlegen kann. Beim Reboot werden die Dateien dann schnell ausgetauscht bevor sie geöffnet werden.

Solving “HHC6003: Error: The file Itircl.dll has not been registered correctly” – “Microsoft HTML Help Compiler 4.74.8702”
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/06/29
When generating the Spring4D documentation at https://spring4d.4delphi.com/ using Documentation Insight by DevJet, I got this error:
HHC6003: Error: The file Itircl.dll has not been registered correctly.
Microsoft HTML Help Compiler 4.74.8702
Solving it turned out easy:
regsvr32 "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Documentation Insight 3\Compilers\CHM\itcc.dll"
I got there via [WayBack] HTML Help FAQ – Wiki.HelpMVP.com:
“HHC6003: The file itircl.dll has not been registered correctly”
This error effects only a small number of users. A HH component (c:\windows\system\itcc.dll) did not get installed or registered correctly. If not installed get the DLL from another PC containing Workshop. To register the DLL run
regsvr32 c:\windows\system\itcc.dll (this path may be different for your PC – eg. c:\winnnt\system32).This fix was originally reported by MVP David Liske: [WayBack] http://www.mvps.org/htmlhelpcenter/itircl.htm
