I am using Windows 10 (well, the version is irrelevant I believe) and I would like to execute my programs through 'Run' just for convenience. My problem is, where do I look for each software's Run keyword ? For example, to open paint, you can run 'mspaint', to open Notepad++ I luckily figured out you can run notepad++ but what about other processes ? For example, I have no clue how to open Sublime text 3 with Run or paint.net and many other software. If you are willing to help, please also provi...

I have column 1 and it has dates. I have column 2 and it has inventory sold. The dates are duplicated from several systems - which means for a given date there are at least 7-10 numbers for inventory sold. We simply want to take the highest amount for a specific date and show the SUM of that column for inventory. Mean we are only adding 1 inventory amount per date. Let's block ads! بخوانید...

I have a FT232R device controlled by a VXM Stepping Motor Controller. I was able to communicate with the device on Mac(using Matlab). But I'm having trouble doing it on Windows. I installed the VCP driver for Windows 64-bit from here: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm I already checked that the driver is properly installed. Here is my code: #include <windows.h> #include <setupapi.h> #include <stdio.h> int main() { char command[34] = "I2M10,R"; HANDLE hSerial = Cr...

First - yes I support old stuff... not blades and the like, Racks of 2 and 4U servers, up to 16 of them in a set. A hardware IP KVM solution in new deployments answers all of my issues, my gap currently is that I want to equip each location I support with a low cost Dongle they can connect to any troubled server (say they blow up the BIOS settings and need help or the RAID controller needs configured or maybe a server is blue screening and we need to capture the stop data after windows crashes r...

I have a print server hosted on a separate domain and I need to give access to users from a different domain to the shared folder without asking them to authenticate. I tried enabling the Guest account and didn't work. I enabled a GPO to deploy the printer but for some reason it's not working. I'd love your help on this issue. Let's block ads! بخوانید...

I had a desktop computer before and this fighting stick of mine was working pretty well. Before I got it to work, it was not recognized by the operating system (Windows 10). Now, I bought a new laptop and the controller is perfectly recognized but does not work at all. I have tried advices from steam forum but these advices are only for those who could not get their controllers to be recognized. What I literally want to do is to make my controller recognized as a game controller. But it is recog...

I'm struggling to understand a behavior I can't explain in a sample network. Basically I want to be able to switch some of my servers by redirecting to a different server (so that I can point my applications to some database server for example and then switch the database connections to another server without changing the applications). I'm probably going to use something like rinetd for that, but I'm curious why some iptables rules are not working as I would expect. The sample network had 3 ser...

In my free time I like to program small to medium programs in C++. I am using an Ubuntu VM and QtCreator as IDE. Until yesterday I only programmed on my local home-PC. Now, I bought myself a laptop. I am looking for a way to synchronize the source code between my Home-PC and my laptop. That means that if I change the source-code on my Home-PC and then boot up my laptop, I have the same source-code on both machines and vice versa. I know very little about version control systems like git. I think...

Is there a piece of software that I can install on every Windows PC in my office so that anyone who plugs a USB Storage device (USB Stick, Phone...) the software sends me an alert or something similar? Thanks. ...

I'm trying to associate a certificate with a private key in an HSM. I first import the cert into my Microsoft Personal store. I then import the key into my HSM.

I have an Asus A555-LF laptop with 4GB integrated RAM(1333 MHz DDR3) (non removable) and an extra RAM expansion slot. I installed another 4GB RAM to the laptop (1333MHz DDR3), but my BIOS, Windows 10 and Ubuntu doesn't detect it. I'm sure I installed it correctly in the computer (prongs are perfectly fitted and connectors lined up). When I put this RAM on my older laptop, it is detected just fine. Let's block ads! بخوانید...

So, there's way too many devices on my wireless network, which I normally use to play games on. Usually, there's about 3 or 4 devices connected on wifi, not counting my computer, which is on wired connection. Right now, there's a few relatives living with us, and the smartphone count has gone up to 10-12. I have a network bandwidth fluctuating between 12-17 mbps throughout the day. I'd like to limit how much of that devices other than my computer have access to. QoS is not an option. I have full...

Thanks So I have a quadport Intel gigabite NIC (dual 82571EB). To get the device IDs, I used: lspci -nn -vvv | grep Etheet all the 4 devices were identified as 8086:10bc. I want to change 10bc to 105e for all 4 devices. ifconfig shows all 4 devices as: enp3s0f0 enp3s0f1 enp4s0f0 enp4s0f1 To find the correct offset, I used this command: # ethtool -e my-interface-here | grep 86 0x0010 87 d9 05 71 2f 24 4b 70 3c 10 bc 10 86 80 65 b3 Running the command above for all 4 interfaces gave me t...

I'd like to be able to run a curl command on my local machine or on my server, and have a push notification be sent to my cell phone. I can already get the same effect with a text messaging service, but I was wondering what push notification services are available. Basically I want an alert on my phone when events happen, for my own personal use, and was wondering what's the best way to do that. Let's block ads! بخوانید...
