Portion From Batch To Power-shell?
Sep 16, 2011
Im starting to work with powershell and try to port my old batch files.
1)I got this lines of Code, and I dont know who to convert them to power shell.The goal is to uninstall a software using the string found in the registry.[code]
2) In former times I used PsExe to remotly execute scripts on remote positions.What would be the best practice for power shell.
3) Another question is if it is posible with power shell to tell the system (Windows 7 and/or Xp)to do a Windows System Update and install all critical updates?

So I have used Terminal in Fedora and I noticed we have power shell which seems much like Terminal, but what do you use it for? With Windows you can point and click on things I used Terminal in Fedora because I had to do certain updates or app installs that way.Can I do a software update through power shell? Where can I read how to start using Power Shell.

i have been playing around with an industrial Linux-powered scanner, and was making okay progress under XP.This was made easier as I just ran some of the bash scripts through win-bash.Since moving to Windows 7 of course this no longer works, even if I disable UAC completely.I can only guess that the reason is that win-bash no longer works with Windows 7.My question is will powershell fill the gap?i.e. if this is my win-bash script what would the powershell equivalent look like, or am I barking up the wrong tree?ow I need an alternative sooner rather than later?

I am grabbing a text file with a list of users in it. I want to then create folders for all those people and then set explicit permissions on those folders to only allow the users and admin access to it. So for the create user folder, I have...
$Users = Get-Content "C:Users.txt"
ForEach ($user in $users)
{
$newPath = Join-Path \mycomputerUsers$ -childpath $user
New-Item $newPath -type directory
}
This works great as I now have 100 folders created. But how do I use something like....
$acl = Get-Acl "\mycomputerusers$"
$permission = "mydomain$users","FullControl","Allow"
$accessRule = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule $permission
$acl.SetAccessRule($accessRule)
$acl | Set-Acl \mycomputerusers$$user
When I try to loop these together it says the folder already exists or the setaccessrule identity references could not be translated. how I loop it in with creating the folder? Or is there a way to just say...create folder based on this username, then take that username and make it the only admin on the folder along with the system admin?

I am trying to create a batch file that runs 3 other batch files. Right now, it works fine using the call command on each other batch file. However, these other batch files take awhile to run. and so the entire process takes a very long time, since each "sub" batch file is run only after the previous one is finished.I was wondering if there is a command or way to start a batch file fro the top-level batch file, then go on and start the next batch file before the previous one is finished. In other words, I want the sub batch files to run in parallel in the background. (similar to the '&' in Unix).

I have an issue with DVD playback in both MP and MC. This doesn't happen with every DVD I play, but with many of them. The volume on the vocal portion is very low to the point of being inaudible. The background noises and music are all perfectly loud. I'm guessing it's because DVD audio is on multiple channels and there's something wrong with the way my system is handling one of them?
I'm using a SB Audigy SE.
The issue persisted after installing the drivers and utilities from the CD and after installing the Shark007 codec/filter pack. This computer is my media center so I really need DVD playback to work.
Any ideas?

I installed a new ssd drive and cloned my c drive onto it. It also cloned my system reserved partion [about 25 megabytes]. I then, at a later date, cloned my c drive [now my new ssd drive] again back to my old primary drive so that i have an up to date copy of my primary drive. But it also cloned my system reserved partion. Can i delete some of these system reserved partions. I now have 3 of them! It makes my computer look very untidy. What ones should i leave or do i need to leave them all?

I am running Windows 7 premium. The taskbar/notification/clock area @ the bottom of my desktop is huge, like nearly an inch. The Time, Day and Date are one below the other. This takes up so much space especially when u have multiple toolbars, address bar etc @ the top not 2 mention the additional loss of space (of nothingness) @ the top. Leaves less working space than I'm happy with. How do I gain back the use of that half inch in the taskbar?Is it possible 2 gain back the lost area @ the top as well?.I have already gone to Properties and changed the settings there (use small icons). It made no difference at all.

Seen several different posts about this issue but really no definitive answer as to why is occurring. Never happened with XP or Vista only Windows 7. Seems most users with this issue report having a Dell computer but mine is a Toshiba Satellite L505. I just find it very annoying to have approximately half inch of desktop space visible on top of any type maximized window, browser window, explorer window, whatever.

I have set up custom paths for the shell folders in Windows 7. It works like it's supposed to except for one small detail. The system creates the folders "Pictures" and "Videos" in the default path (C:UsersUsername). As I mentioned I already have "My Pictures" and "My Videos" at another drive, so these folders shouldn't be there but when I try to delete them the system re-creates them. If I try to delete them again I get an error message stating I don't have permission to remove the folder, and if I try to open it it says "Access denied".

I have been getting Windows Shell Common DLL crashes when accessing and modifying properties in my Sound Panel. (I recently connected my SPDIF out to my receiver;I've also been having trouble getting my headphones to work again, but that's another problem) It's shown up in my Reliability Monitor and I've had the "Critical Event" "Windows Shell Common Dll" "Stopped Working" and it has reduced my reliability score from 10 to about 2. When I "Check for a solution" it says there aren't any available. I've checked all drivers and they are up to date. Any idea how to fix this? I've done alot of searching, and all i could find was one guy dl'ing a new SFComm64.dll file and replacing it in his system, which he said worked, but Windows 7 saw as a security threat (?). So, I'm not quite sure what to do - do I try and dl a new SFComm64.dll file? And if so, where do I dl from?

I installed Battlefield 3 right after Christmas and just today noticed that I was unable to access my mouse settings via Control Panel. I know that this is a small issue but I'm concerned that it might continue to grow. As I have updated a number of drivers and other programs since then I am reluctant to hit the restore button and loose half a day of work. Can I simply "repair" Windows shell and go on?I ran (as administrator) sfc/scannow and if found no integrity errors. I also ran Control Panel / Action Center / Maint / Review Reliability and found no issues

I had a file that had that open with format, I mistakenly changed it to a Windows Media Player format, and now can not change it back.I was thinking that I may have to reinstall the shell32.dll itself, but I saw the file on my computer. So maybe I should just find it in the Browse folder directory, then click okay and it's fix. Not sure completely where it is located or if that will work.

I have a number of PCs connecting to a server where we house our personal folders. The server also houses music, basketball games, our photos, applications (like drivers and updates etc). On XP and vista I could update shell folders in registry to point each of the various locations (Like My Videos, My Documents, My Pictures etc), to a location on the server.
I updated the shell folder locations in registry only to find that it says location is unsupported because the network locations are not indexed
I have turned indexing off because it is a total waste of resources. We have everything stored on separate drives by category of item. For us, sedarching is not required, stuff is easy to find.
So how can I point the shell folders to a network location without turning on indexing?
