    stop ms-dos 6 running auto scandisk on fat

    They need a new pc. That DOS program would probably run just fine on win 11. But if it doesn’t you can convert the drive into a VM. Running on old 90s hardware is just crazy.

    MS USB Toolset?

    It used to be available as part of the action pack. MVPs probably get that free.

    Lastpass customer vaults taken in last attack.

    The problem is that I don't think that there is a good way to export a passkey. Any method to do so would be something that a hacker could emulate. Tied to a device, or a service, means it can leave it by ANY means. Maybe a true free coalition service could be created. But that would mean...

    Port a personal Skype to a M365 Teams Business account?

    The Company I am working for has as one of its phone numbers a PERSONAL Skype account. I didn't know about it until a day or two ago. The end user didn't know about or didn't bother to inform us about the fact that Skype is being discontinued. We have a full M365 tenancy here with most users...

    Antivirus for the unconnected

    Nonsense. Most viruses are designed to exploit unpatched systems. If you are worried about USB viruses. (Very rare nowadays) then you have to patch the OS. Most AV programs are updated via the internet. So I don't understand how you will really be able to protect it. Personally I'd worry...

    Rootkit scanning and removal

    Not really. Every BIOS is different. Every manufacturer is different. I’m been doing this for 35 years. Never seen a BIOS based virus. Most people are not running the latest BIOS so updating it is of benefit anyway.

    Rootkit scanning and removal

    Nuke and pave. I don’t bother trying to diagnose and repair anymore. If I really think the system is compromised then it gets sanitized by fire. Back up the data, Scan it on another PC, nuke the system, flash latest BIOS, erase the TPM and reinstall everything.

    I'm in Texas, which means you don't have your VPN on.
