Re: Panda usb vaccine not working on 24H2
Hi Winsty, On Windows 11 the risk the Panda tool tries to protect from is already disabled by default, autorun.inf will not be executed. If you want to check, this command will check the state of the setting, by default set to 0xFF (255) disabling Autorun on all devices reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer" /v NoDriveTypeAutoRun Hope this helps,45Views0likes0CommentsRe: Server 2025 Core ADDS DC, Network Profile Showing as "Public" and not as "DomainAuthenticated"
Hi, I've created this Workaround Script: It will create a folder C:\install\scripts, put a fix script in it and schedule it to run at startup, the script will reset the adapter if in public profile $scriptContent = @" # FixPubFWProfile.ps1 # This script fixes the public network profile # Get the network profiles `$networkProfiles = Get-NetConnectionProfile # Wait for 60 seconds Start-Sleep -Seconds 60 # Loop through each profile and restart-adapter if it is set to public foreach (`$Nprofile in `$networkProfiles) { if (`$Nprofile.NetworkCategory -eq "Public") { Restart-NetAdapter -Name `$Nprofile.InterfaceAlias } } "@ $scriptPath = "c:\Install\Scripts\FixPubFWProfile.ps1" # Create the directory if it doesn't exist if (-not (Test-Path -Path (Split-Path -Path $scriptPath))) { New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path (Split-Path -Path $scriptPath) -Force } # Write the script content to the file Set-Content -Path $scriptPath -Value $scriptContent Write-Output "Script created at $scriptPath" $action = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "powershell.exe" -Argument "-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoProfile -File `"$scriptPath`"" $trigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -AtStartup $principal = New-ScheduledTaskPrincipal -UserId "SYSTEM" -LogonType ServiceAccount -RunLevel Highest $settings = New-ScheduledTaskSettingsSet -AllowStartIfOnBatteries -DontStopIfGoingOnBatteries -StartWhenAvailable #check if the task already exists $taskExists = Get-ScheduledTask -TaskName "FixPublicNetworkProfile" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue if ($taskExists) { Write-Output "Scheduled task 'FixPublicNetworkProfile' already exists" } else { Register-ScheduledTask -Action $action -Trigger $trigger -Principal $principal -Settings $settings -TaskName "FixPublicNetworkProfile" -Description "Fixes the public network profile 1 minute after startup" Write-Output "Scheduled task 'FixPublicNetworkProfile' created to run at startup with a 1 minute delay in the script" } also on my blog: https://www.technine.be/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Fix-Public-Network-Profile.ps1 hope this helps,73Views3likes2CommentsRe: Is it REALLY a bad idea to install Windows 11 on an 'unsupported' system?
Hi Everettiin, Your processor is supported, if you Motherboad bios allows it you might be able to activate the Virtual TPM To enable TPM (Trusted Platform Module) on your Gigabyte Z370 Aorus Gaming motherboard with an i7 8700K CPU, follow these steps: Access BIOS Settings: Restart your computer and press the Delete key repeatedly during startup to enter the BIOS. Navigate to Trusted Computing Settings: Once in the BIOS, switch to Advanced Mode (usually by pressing F2). Go to the Settings tab, then select Miscellaneous or Peripherals (depending on your BIOS version). Enable Intel Platform Trust Technology (PTT): Look for the option labeled Intel Platform Trust Technology (PTT) and set it to Enabled. Save and Exit: Save your changes (usually by pressing F10) and exit the BIOS. Verify TPM in Windows: After rebooting into Windows, press Windows + R, type tpm.msc, and hit Enter. This will open the TPM Management Console, where you can confirm that TPM is enabled.187Views0likes0CommentsRe: Please suggest “A Basic Understanding of Python” via Microsoft Learn

Hi muis6847, Copilot is still a CFR (Controlled Feature Release), this means it does not show up everywhere yet. I've also had devices where it went missing & came back. To make sure you get it as soon as possible, make sure you are signed in with a Microsoft account, not a local user. also tuning on the 'Get the latest updates as soon as they are available' is important. you can find this slider in settings under windows update. From the Microsoft support pages: 'The initial markets for the Copilot in Windows preview include North America and parts of Asia and South America. We’ll add more markets over time.' Depending on you location you might need to change your regional settings to be able to test it out for now.9.4KViews0likes1CommentRe: Windows Insider Program

- Social manipulation: This is when malicious actors send fake emails (phishing) or text messages (smishing) to users to trick them into giving private information such as their passwords or downloading malware on their devices. - Data breaches via malicious apps: This happens when users download apps that look legitimate but actually skim data from their device. Examples are spyware and malware that steal personal and business information without users realizing it. - Network-based attacks: These are especially common and risky because cybercriminals can steal unencrypted data while people use public WiFi networks.50KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Ninja Cat Giveaway: Episode 4 | Defender Experts for Hunting Overview
