Best Way to Fill ACORD 23 Vehicle Insurance Certificates on Windows – Any Recommended Tools?
I frequently deal with insurance documentation and recently had to work with the ACORD 23 Vehicle Insurance Certificate. I’ve been using Windows 11 and was looking for the most efficient way to fill, edit, and save these forms digitally without printing them out. While browsing, I found AcordForm – it lets you view and understand various ACORD forms like the 23, 25, and more. It’s been helpful for referencing and understanding the format. However, I’d love some advice from the community: What’s the best Microsoft-supported tool for filling out ACORD PDF forms? Is Microsoft Edge’s PDF editor reliable enough, or should I be using Microsoft Word with PDF add-ins? Any integration tips with OneDrive or SharePoint for document storage?. Thanks in advance
AacAmbientLighting.exe Issue
Hi, I'm not sure if this is an appropriate place to post this, please do let me know if not. I have for the last two days been getting the following message popping up on my machine and I can't work out for what reason. I updated my Internet Security during that time, so automatic thought was it was that preventing the files been read, but I've disabled the Internet Security and the error message still crops up I have also uninstalled and reinstalled Armoury Crate, uninstalling it does take the error away, but that causes other issues and I use ROG hardware. So I kind of need Armoury Crate to be functioning. This is the error that I'm seeing: When I try and install the .Net Runtime software it says that 'the specified account already exists' so I'm a littled confused as to what might be causing the issue and how I can resolve it and keep Armoury Crate on my machine.
.Net 8 Isolated upgrade issue- RPC Exceptions in .Net Core Function App
Hi Team, Need Immediate help. I am continuously receiving RPC Exceptions when I have upgraded my Function App to .Net 8 previously I had zero exceptions related to this in .Net 6. Scenario: We are creating builder with ConfigureFunctionsWebApplication() like below: 1. var builder = FunctionsApplication.CreateBuilder(args); 2. builder.ConfigureFunctionsWebApplication(); And basically, we have Http triggers and SB triggers in the application and only couple of them are facing issue and the error in AI states that this is an issue related to worker. I have copied multiple exception wrapped as an RPC exception below: 1. An exception was thrown by the invocation. Exception: System.TimeoutException: Timed out waiting for the function start call. 2. The operation has timed out at Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Extensions.Http.AspNetCore.DefaultHttpCoordinator.SetFunctionContextAsync(String invocationId, FunctionContext context) 3.Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Extensions.Http.AspNetCore.DefaultHttpCoordinator.SetFunctionContextAsync(String invocationId, FunctionContext context) 4.

Environment: Windows 11 24H2 .Net Framework 4.8, 4.7.2 Problem: I do not understand how to get server's certificate public key in PKCS8 format using the X509Certificate class. Explanation: I'm implementing the custom server's certificate check for SSL connection (aka certificate pinning) in the next way: Create a new SSLStream: SslStream sslStream = new SslStream( client.GetStream(), false, new RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(ValidateServerCertificate), null); Declare the ValidateServerCertificate() method: public static bool ValidateServerCertificate(object sender, X509Certificate certificate, X509Chain chain, SslPolicyErrors sslPolicyErrors) {} Get server's certificate public key certificate.GetPublicKey() The public key which I get is in the PKCS1 format and I can't find any function in .Net Framework to get it in the PKCS8 format or to convert from PCKS1 to PKCS8. As a fallback, I'm using the static prefix for the PKCS8 format which works well but is valid only for 2048 bits long public keys: private static byte[] pkcs8Prefix = { 0x30, 0x82, 0x01, 0x22, 0x30, 0x0D, 0x06, 0x09, 0x2A, 0x86, 0x48, 0x86, 0xF7, 0x0D, 0x01, 0x01, 0x01, 0x05, 0x00, 0x03, 0x82, 0x01, 0x0F, 0x00 }; byte[] pkcs8PublicKey = pkcs8Prefix.Concat(certificate.GetPublicKey()).ToArray(); Which function of .Net Framework can I use to get the public key in the PKCS8 format?
feature request: please add liblibgdiplus packages to DOTNET .. (linux)
feature request: please add liblibgdiplus packages (deb,rpm) to dotnet 9.xx description Libgdiplus is the Mono library that provides a GDI+-compatible API on non-Windows operating systems. need it to run .NET code on linux.. i know, most linux flavors provide a liblibgdiplus package, but adding it to dotnet prevents issues with running dotnet..

How to run a .NET Desktop Runtime app
So, Microsoft, this is an incredible piece of trolling and we all appreciate the laugh... but seriously, how do we run our program? Your "Download it now" button does nothing. Your "Download link" does nothing and is useless as text. As you can see in the screenshot, I have multiple versions installed and it still won't run. We tried this on multiple computers (a mix of Win 10 and Win 11) with the same results.
