  1. In a case where a problem can be solved without buying something, posting about a paid tool is generally ill advised.
  2. We already have that with cell phones. The underlying firmware (the OS behind the OS) is extremely trusting. The cell phone will connect to any network it happens to find. An average person may have encountered this where their phone may turn into roaming mode. Or in cases where a person is near a border, the phone will connect to the other country's network instead. These cases stand out because the user ends up with a large phone bill. But it is exactly why this thing works well for police: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stingray_phone_tracker
  3. I saw this as an ad-tweet today but I can't find the original one. Just someone retweeted. Anyways basically Merrill Lunch wrote an article about IoT. Getting your bank account/investments mixed into IoT sounds pretty scary to me. https://www.ml.com/articles/how-the-internet-of-things-will-connect-everything.html The article does have this mention near the end, but it really should be the primary focus. Secure your product, then connect your things. Usually, these things are done in reverse.
  4. I'm not exactly sure how it determines if word wrap is to be used. I have an idea it has to do with the browser. As an example, at work using Firefox the words do not wrap. At home using Palemoon, they do. I've also had it where it wrapped, then updated the browser and it stopped working. This seems to be common amongst all IPB forums I've used. Sometimes it wraps, sometimes it doesn't.
  5. I have not used this type of Windows installation, so I wonder if there is anything useful in windowsupdate.log.
  6. Sam Spence - Round Up
  7. We wanted more DOS, got mildly excited about WMIC so they gave us Powershell! What else could we want besides hologram characters from Halo?
  8. Are these files/dirs on the hard drive or removeable media? Also is this a volume where you have indexing enabled?
  9. Did you do the free upgrade on this system?
  10. I ran into a black screen issue where I had a GeForce video card and I installed old Windows 8 drivers. However, I have read about other things causing this problem too. I think we need details about your question to be sure.
  11. Looking that model up on google with "disconnect" sure brings up a lot of results. Have you tried different driver versions? Also in Device Manager, is there power settings for the device?
  12. Tag removed, see forum rules about political content.
  13. How do you go about fixing the issue manually? I have a similar thing with my cell phone on Verizon's network. It is supposed to be on 4G LTE all the time, but sometimes if the signal drops it will disconnect from the 4G signal and connect to the 3G signal. This doesn't actually cause me a performance problem because I don't use big data on the phone. The way I can get it back to 4G is to put it in airplane mode, then turn off airplane mode. Then it reconnects to 4G. I bring this up because it is possible that there is a shared hardware behaviour at work here and not necessarily just a software issue. What is the model of the modem device you are using?
  14. Certainly this one is ok? http://winaero.com/updates/opaquet.txt And a bad choice of naming, this domain used by MSSE/Defender: spynet2.microsoft.com.
  15. I am unsure of the legitimacy of the company for which the answer file is being made for. If they are in the OEM Channel, then you (or they) should contact their MS Account Representative regarding how to best accomplish this.
  16. Here's the story on a site that you can read with javascript disabled: http://www.winbeta.org/news/microsoft-re-signs-expands-agreement-to-share-info-with-nato
  17. It sometimes will work to add the mass storage driver to an OS manually prior to moving the disk to another board.
  18. Well it did work in 7/8. Either something changed for Windows 10 or you aren't doing something right. Its hard to tell from your posts. It would be better if you could post your XML in CODE tags or attach it to the post so we can see if there is an error. Here is an example of a hybrid answer file if it helps you (it is for Windows 7) http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/139572-ask-your-seven-xml-here/page-5#entry963334
  19. What instructions are you following? PEImg is for Vista times and isn't used anymore. DISM for everything!
  20. Artarga, it is clear that using HOSTS file in Windows 10 is not valid as there are a few documented instances where the file is not even used for resolving domains.
  21. Not knowing which edition you have, but have you looked into AppLocker?
  22. Getting tired of you posting what you did on other forums.
  23. Did you add the registry entry anyways? Also look here: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?act=findpost&pid=1097746
  24. I see this often. I just keep doing restarts and check updates until it works.
  25. Its not really news, but I guess no one wrote an article about it yet.
