[Wayback/Archive] Thread by @0gtweet on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App
A very friendly reminder, especially for non-corporate PCs protected with BitLocker: if you are not sure if you have your Recovery Password handy, you can display it any moment with “manage-bde -protectors -get c:”
Store the password in your password manager and make its backup!
Note: manage-bde.exe -protectors -get c: needs admin rights!

netsh interface ip delete arpcache

Since every now and then, like testing software developed with older tools, you need to run older software.
This always works: [Wayback /Archive] Deploy .NET Framework 3.5 by using Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) | Microsoft Learn
DISM /Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:NetFx3 /All
Use /All to enable all parent features of the specified feature.
(The /All is needed because software requiring .NET Framework 3.5 also require the parent features).
Notes:
- Tested on Windows 10 and Windows 11 in 2022.
- It can take a really long time (more than just a few minutes!) even on fast connections.
- Installing through Chocolatey with `choco install
dotnet3.5 fails on Windows 11 (have not tried on Windows 10) with the classical red on black PowerShell default error theme*:
ERROR: The term 'wmic' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
The install of DotNet3.5 was NOT successful.
Error while running 'C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\DotNet3.5\Tools\ChocolateyInstall.ps1'.

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.

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:
