By default, Chrome uses the same proxy server as Internet Explorer: the system one that your Chrome settings page accesses from chrome://settings/search#proxy through this command-line call:
"C:\Windows\system32\rundll32.exe" C:\Windows\system32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL C:\Windows\system32\inetcpl.cpl,,4
There is no GUI way inside Chrome to change this, but there is a command-line parameter: --proxy-server="ipaddress:port"
So create a new shortcut to Chrome, then you can change it.
This comes in very handy if you want to test
- some sessions through for instance Internet Explorer going through HTTP Fiddler (that defaults at localhost:8888)
- other sessions through Cntlm (that defaults to localhost:3128)
Some background information:

Here’s how you can find out when your domain password will expire.
net user %USERNAME% /domain
It figures this out for the current logon domain (so it doesn’t work cross-domain) but it is a great help, especially when filtering out just the password information:
net user %USERNAME% /domain | findstr "Password"
This can be done in a more complex way with dsquery or adinfo that are tools to query

In addition to the two methods mentioned at Two Quick Methods for Finding Shared Folders in Windows (use net share or compmgmt.msc) I like this one:
fsmgmt.msc
It directly gets you to the “Shared Folders” inside compmgmt.msc

Slightly updated the answer the /D Y part will recursively accept taking ownership when directory listing is denied in the permissions:
To fix really broken permissions, the best is to run these two commands one after the other:
takeown /F /D Y "C:\path\to\folder" /R
icacls "C:\path\to\folder" /reset /T
The first one will give you ownership of all the files, however that might not be enough, for example if all the files have the read/write/exec permissions set to “deny”. You own the files but still cannot do anything with them.
In that case, run the second command, which will fix the broken permissions.

I wrote two tiny batch files that would dump the environment variables from the registry.
Various reasons:
- Environment variables can be stored in two contexts: System and User (SET will show them all at once and for instance combine PATH up to 1920 characters).
- Environment variables can be set to auto-expand or not, which you cannot see from a SET command (REG_EXPAND_SZ versus REG_SZ).
show-user-environment-variables.bat:
reg query "HKCU\Environment"
show-system-environment-variables.bat:
reg query "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment"
Filtered results:
