I need a small script to download some programs. The URL's never change but the files do. Like when you download malwarebytes. Example: "https://downloads.malwarebytes.com/file/mbam_current/" The address doesnt change but the file name downloaded does. Every script i see, requires that you specify a file name. I dont want to do that, I want the script to pull the filename from the sites header which would include the version name of that file in that filename. I cant seem to find any way of doin...

In Windows 7 (64-bit Ultimate in my case), is there any way to gain only the rights of an administrator account, rather than effectively "running" the application as <insert administrator name here>? I am having a dilemma with MPC-HC (Media Player Classic - Home Cinema), where it requires administrator privileges to associate files with it. When I enter the credentials for an administrator account there, it essentially updates the whole environment, so the settings are applied only to the ...

The title is a bit misleading, but I cannot think of a better one. See the following example to explain what I want: Under Windows 7, the current User I am using is a "Computer Administrator" account. After updating to Windows 10, the account type of my current User is still "Administrator". Let's say I want to edit the C:WindowsSystem32driversetchosts file. Typically I just use the Windows Explorer, navigate to that path and then right click on the hosts file and choose, in my case Edit with Su...

I have a Samsung 850 Pro SSD that I used at my previous job. I would like to reuse this SSD and clone the HDD on my current work laptop. I dont need any of the old files on the SSD. Can I just format the whole drive and then clone to it? I recall reading in the past that formatting an SSD is bad for the drive. Let's block ads! بخوانید...

I have a software package that was provided to me already compiled. It ran fine, but then I was given an update, which evidently uses a new library (possibly DirectInput). The updated version fails to start, and when choosing to debug it, I receive the following error message: "mixed mode assembly is built against version v1.1.4322 of the runtime and cannot be loaded in the 4.0 runtime without additional configuration information" I saw some advice about modifying the app.config file, which I as...

You'll have something to shoot for, by setting particular goals. Decide on a target weight and perhaps even a torso max gain xtreme or bicep description that you would like to shoot for and produce it along. If you believe this task is trivial and you miss it you are prone to give up your attempts all together and leave over time, thus be sure to establish what you would like from your Muscle Building method and document it. When you are attempting to acquire muscle another thing you can do quic...

What is an equivalent for ntrights.exe on Windows 10? I need it to be able to be run from the command line. ...

There is a Technicolor TC7200.U left from my last flat and inteet provider. This one is still configured like the inteet provider prepared it in the first place, which means that I can't use it in my new flat. How can I make the modem/router usable (for anything) again? Has anyone of you an idea or for instance knows a tutorial to replace the firmware on it? I wasn't able to find a lot of information about the TC7200.U in the last hours and nothing usable to make the modem/router reusable. Does ...

Since some days I have a problem with my Laptop. I sometimes close the lid, when I do not need the laptop. The laptop does not power down or standby (set in power options), simply the screen goes off. When I open the lid again, everything is normal, but: Often the mouse cursor is not visible anymore. The mouse is useable, I can open windows, I can hover over the start button and I see the icon changing, as when the mouse cursor is there. But the cursor is invisible. When I open the start menu or...

I have a desktop pc with windows 10 installed. I'm using sleep mode to power the pc down and have all programs active again after I power it up again. This works great, but if I shutdown the power to the pc, the pc will load from scratch, with all programs closed (and not just wakeup again). I have read about hibeation mode etc. but this option isn't really available. I would really like to tu off the power during the night, so is there any way I can activate hibeation mode?

I'm trying to set hlsearch on by default when I enter a buffer in vim. Running :set hls manually upon entering a buffer performs the action I expect. However, when I add autocmd BufEnter * set hls to my .vimrc (and reload vim), nothing happens upon opening a buffer. Adding a colon in front of set doesn't change the behavior. For context, I'm trying to use this script, but have it set "on" by default. I tried both of the tips mentioned in the "load at startup" section of the page with no success....

I have some SDLT II tapes that were made with brightstor a few years ago. I don't know anything about the tapes besides that fact of who made them. When I try to see how data was stored on the tapes: dd if=/dev/st0 of=./testfile bs=64K file testfile >testfile: data I get that. Is there another way to try and determine what type of file this is? I know the brightstor had the capabilities to store on tapes as cpio, tar, or brightstor format. But as far as I know there is no way to extract a...

I was playing around with drive permissions on a new Windows 10 PC when I noticed that all the folders could be shared over the network. By mistake I revoked the access for myself. I tried to repeat what I did but not I'm not even allowed to configure the permissions. A few references on the inteet suggest using icacls on command line. Doesn't seem to work.

If I do a command like (on windows cmd.exe): where dir or where cd I get the following message: INFO: Could not find files for the given patte(s). This tends to mean to me that cd and dir are not actual programs, but are built in to cmd.exe. Now the real question is: Is there ant way to replace cd and dir with other programs? If you wanted to replace say more, you could just put another program by that name in the system PATH in front of where more is. But you cannot do that with cd and...

I have a small amount (a few dozen items of a few kilobytes each) of essential data to store, which I will need to access over the coming decades. While the data is highly confidential, its value to others is debatable, and my budget is small. I recently purchased a bunch of brand-name 8 GB USB flash drives to store this data. I'm wondering: does creating two partitions on each drive and storing the same data on each actually get me anything? I'm thinking it might buy me some redundancy if some ...
