I dock my laptop at a customer’s location and start a Teams call. No idea what audio device Teams will use. In this small blog post, I will show you how you can search and disable a lot of (audio) devices at once using PowerShell 🙂

What I do when I feel like my life is out of control:
1.) Clear %TEMP%
2.) Clear C:\Windows\Temp
3.) Run cleanmgr.exe
4.) Run patchmypc.exe
5.) Delete stuff in %APPDATA% I don't have anymore

FYI, this post is a little more NSFW than usual with the language. Usually I think McMansions are kind of funny. Sometimes, I even like them. If I didn't like them at least a little bit, I don't think...

The design of MSIX has real consequences: by deprecating the MSRDC *MSI* installer in favor of the Windows App *MSIX*, we lose the ability to call msrdc.exe or load rdclientax.dll directly. The workaround is to copy the files to a temporary location, but then what's the point of MSIX?

Look at this! Microsoft seems to reintroduce quality updates during OOBE (After Windows Autopilot), but this time, IT admins will have some control over this process.

Curious about the details and how Microsoft is going to implement this?
