  • PowerShell WMI events

    In my previous post ( http://richardsiddaway.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!43CFA46A74CF3E96!2598.entry   or http://richardsiddaway.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!43CFA46A74CF3E96!2598.entry ) I started to look at WMI events in PowerShell v2.  The win32_process class was used but all that showed us was...

  • PowerShell Eventing

    This isn’t the latest sport added for the 2012 Olympics but a way to dig deeper into what is happening on your machine.  There is a continuous stream of events occurring on a computer – programs stop or start, files open or close etc etc.  Some, but all, of these events are recorded in the...

  • Unblocking files

    When I download files from the Internet to Vista or Windows 7 the file is blocked and I can’t execute it until its unblocked. This is especially annoying with zip files because if I unzip them all the contents are blocked. I have been meaning to do something in PowerShell for this and finally got round...

  • Codeplex AD Replication Module

    The other codeplex project that caught my eye was a brand new one to create a PowerShell module to manage AD replication.  This one will be very useful and one I will be using a lot. There is still time for suggestions as to content for this project – see http://adreplicationmodule.codeplex.com...

  • Codeplex PowerShell Configurator

    I was looking at codeplex (Microsoft’s Open Source site) and decided to do a search for projects relating to PowerShell. 161 projects were returned.  The first 110 had an obvious PowerShell connection.  This is a tremendous number and really does demonstrate the strength of the PowerShell community...

    I’ve been writing a few modules recently and sometimes forget what I have in each module. Simple way to view the functions each module makes available. 001 002 003 004 005 006 007 Clear-Host Get-Module   -ListAvailable   |   foreach   {     Import-Module   $_ ...

  • PowerShell v2 help file

    In PowerShell v2 we get a nice graphical help system that includes the cmdlets, the about files and and the User and Getting Started Guide. It doesn’t include the help for the optional modules though which is a pity. The default locations on the Start Menu for PowerShell are Accessories – Windows PowerShell...

  • Word Add a table

    There seems to be two types of paragraph I create in Word documents – text or tables.  Lets start by adding a table. 001 002 003 004 005 006 007 008 009 function   Add-Table   {     param   (         [int]   $row   =  ...

  • Word Autocorrect

    If you have been following this blog for awhile you will know that I build and rebuild machines on a reasonably frequent basis.  One drawback to this that I have to keep re-creating the Autocorrect entries.  I do a lot of technical writing much of which involves full names of products and correct...

  • File download problem

    If you are using the Office 2010 TP and try to download a word document through Internet Explorer you end up in a continuous loop of being asked for credentials.  The download site won’t recognise your local credentials so you can’t get the documents.  You do however get to see the URL from...

  • PowerShell 2 on Windows 7 - Remoting

    One thing I noticed was that remoting appears to be switched on by default.  I did a clean install to the extent of deleting and resizing the install partition so it shouldn’t have picked up any remnants of previous installs. The execution policy still defaults to restricted. Technorati Tags: Windows...

  • Service loading

    This isn’t quite finished but there is enough useful stuff to share.  I was wondering what order things are loaded – especially services and found that this information can be found in the registry – only difficulty is reading it. 001 002 003 004 005 006 007 008 009 010 011 012 013 014 015 016 017...

    If we need to look at the startup history of a service we can find the information in the event log 001 002 003 004 005 006 function Get-ServiceStartupHistory { param ( [string] $name ) Get-EventLog -LogName System | where { ( ( $_ .
