For my link archive as this is environment variable override trick to override DLL loading is not just limited to executables shipping with Windows, but also with other products (likely: virus scanners that run privileged); another alternative is running a local process serving the WebDAV protocol.

A while ago, I needed to generate GUIDs on any Windows console so performed a [Wayback/Archive] generate guid windows terminal – Google Search, found [Wayback/Archive] Generate a GUID in Windows 10 (Globally Unique Identifier) and came up with this generate-guid.bat file:
powershell [guid]::NewGuid()

For my link archive, as apparently the history recording for the Windows (not just server) Task Scheduler is disabled [Wayback How can I enable the Windows Server Task Scheduler History recording? – Stack Overflow
- Open an elevated Task Scheduler (ie. right-click on the Task Scheduler icon and choose Run as administrator)
- In the Actions pane (right pane, not the actions tab), click Enable All Tasks History
That’s it. Not sure why this isn’t on by default, but it isn’t.
At the time of writing, I did not have energy to figure out which steps on the console to take to enable this history.

A long time ago I wrote about How To Fix Missing Hibernation Option On Windows 10.
Back then I needed to enable it (using powercfg.exe /hibernate on or disable using powercfg.exe /hibernate off), but I forgot about how to query this setting.
[Wayback/Archive] windows check if hibernation is enabled – Google Search gives me a result which is somewhat workable, but hopefully some day I find a better solution than in [Wayback/Archive] How to see from commandline (!!!) if hibernation is on or off? – Windows 10 Forums:

Note that the below methods likely will cause security warnings if a Windows machine has been properly configured, but in most cases at least one of them works.
curl --url https://speed.hetzner.de/100MB.bin --output %TEMP%\100MB.bin
certutil | Microsoft Docs (at least Windows 7 and up; needs UAC elevation)certutil.exe -urlcache -split -f https://speed.hetzner.de/100MB.bin %TEMP%\100MB.bin
powershell.exe -Command (New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile('https://speed.hetzner.de/100MB.bin','%TEMP%\100MB.bin')
I think it works for all versions of curl, certutil, and PowerShell though I did not have anything older than up-to-date Windows 7 (having PowerShell version 3) and recent to test on.

A while ago I learned that since Windows 8, sometimes it uses LaunchTM.exe (which is not even on Wikipedia) to start TaskMgr.exe.
I could find little information about the why, so here are some links with information on when LaunchTM.exe is used (which is confusing) and what command-line parameters TaskMgr.exe can get (also confusing as the order of parameters matter):
