In case you missed it, back in October we published a brand new guide for deploying phishing-resistant passwordless in your organization with Entra ID: https://t.co/ge35hitR01 ! This is the outcome of a ton of effort across Microsoft, please use it to begin your journey!

On Nov. 2nd, Microsoft officially released Server 2025 as Generally Available. For our fellow #sysadmins, the sudden appearance on your '22 servers is understandably concerning. Learn what went wrong, who’s impacted, and why MS isn’t entirely to blame πŸ‘‰

#Github #Copilot edits is absolutely wild. I've never made a browser extension before yet can make edits like this effortlessly adding a #PowerShell command column. (Tiny text to show ultrawide dev style, sorry)

Good news the Appx cmdlets work on #PowerShell 7 natively in Server 2025 now. Bad news the Appx cmdlets now fail to load through WinRM PSRemoting on Server 2025 due to extra deps not in the GAC. Here is a "hack" to get it working again https://t.co/KbiRIHoPMn.

Interesting. When the Intune MDM certificate is saved to the SYSTEM profile during certain enrolment scenarios, it is exported, without the private key, to the enrolling users profile too 🧐 Blog coming… #DiggingTooDeep

Doctors hate this one weird trick - did you buy a Mac and pay to upgrade to 16GB memory before they made that the new standard? If you call post sales support and ask for the upgrade cost back, they will approve it...

A fun reminder that documentation is hard. This is factually incorrect and 'az storage blob delete-batch' with --dryrun DOES NOT IGNORE precondition arguments. Touchdown for documentation.

If a dry run flag on a command ignores filtering conditions, it is entirely useless... https://t.co/8TIxQXHChm
