Cannot update from Build 26244 to 26252
Currently running Build 26244. Almost everything works except Settings -> Windows Update interface is bugged and unusable. It’s been unusable since update to this build.
Looking around i’ve found that there is also a cli interface called “SConfig” and i can install updates from there. I’m currently receiving updates for Windows Defender but didn’t receive Build 26252.
How do i install Build 26252? Should i burn iso to usb key and install from scratch?

How do I download YouTube videos in laptop Windows 10?
Hi, all. I’m working on a video editing project recently and need to download some video clips from YouTube for editing. I’ve tried several online downloading sites, but the problem I encountered is that these sites have too many ads, and the quality of the downloaded videos is not ideal, and sometimes the download process is even interrupted. I’m currently using a laptop with Windows 10 system. I don’t know if there is a better way or software to download YouTube videos.
If anyone has good suggestions or experience to share, please help! Thank you everyone!

What’s new in FinOps toolkit 0.4 – July 2024
Whether you consider yourself a FinOps practitioner, someone who’s enthusiastic about driving cloud efficiency and maximizing the value you get from the cloud, or were just asked to look at ways to reduce cost, the FinOps toolkit has something for you. This month, we’re excited to share support for FOCUS 1.0, updated tools and resources aligned to the FinOps Framework 2024 updates, a new (but familiar) tool for cloud optimization recommendations, FinOps hubs managed exports and cross-tenant support, and a slew of other small improvements and bug fixes. There really is something for everyone!
New to FinOps toolkit?
In case you haven’t heard, the FinOps toolkit is an open-source collection of tools and resources that help you learn, adopt, and implement FinOps in the Microsoft Cloud. The foundation of the toolkit is the Implementing FinOps guide that helps you get started with FinOps whether you’re using native tools in the Azure portal, looking for ways to automate and extend those tools, or if you’re looking to build your own FinOps tools and reports. To learn more about the toolkit, how to provide feedback, or how to contribute, see the FinOps toolkit site.
Support for FOCUS 1.0
Anyone who’s been deeply engaged in the FinOps community and following major FinOps news and events knows about the FinOps Open Cost and Usage Specification (FOCUS). And for those who don’t, FOCUS is a provider-agnostic schema for cost and usage data. We’ve been driving FOCUS alongside customers, partners, and our industry peers to define a data format that can become the new “language” of FinOps, helping FinOps practitioners achieve their goals easier than ever, backed by the FinOps Framework and accompanying resources, like the KPI and use case libraries.
FOCUS 1.0 was announced at FinOps X 2024 in June and we were happy to co-announce support for FOCUS 1.0 in Cost Management exports at the same time. Now, with the July release of FinOps toolkit 0.4, we’re happy to share that all Power BI reports and FinOps hubs have both been updated to FOCUS 1.0!
If you’re using the Cost Management connector, you can easily switch to the newest version of the Cost Management connector report, which works for all EA, MCA, and MPA billing accounts/profiles, to see all your cost and usage data aligned to the FOCUS 1.0 schema. Please note the underlying APIs and API constraints for the connector are still the same, so if you’re looking for more, please switch to using raw exports, FinOps hubs, or consider ingesting data into Microsoft Fabric.
If you’re using FinOps hubs – or looking to level-up your reporting from the connector – you can opt to leave your existing 1.0 preview data as-is and leverage the new Power BI reports, which transform 1.0 preview to FOCUS 1.0, or you can create new FOCUS 1.0 exports (and consider even back-filling data) to get the latest data. It’s always best to re-export your data using the latest schema because it reduces processing time in Power BI, but you can make the decision that works best for you. (Just remember to delete the old exports if you create a new FOCUS 1.0 export!) And if you’re automating export creation with PowerShell, you can also use the New-FinOpsCostExport command to create FOCUS 1.0 exports.
Lastly, sample data files were updated for FOCUS 1.0 and new metadata files were added for both FOCUS 1.0 and FOCUS 1.0 preview to describe the dataset in a programmatic way based on the FOCUS 1.0 specification.
To start leveraging these new reports, check out the FinOps toolkit Power BI reports or learn about how you can deploy FinOps hubs today. To learn more about FOCUS and it’s benefits – which range from general usability, improved learnability, and transferability of skills to cost savings from reduced dataset size and compute costs compared to processing native actual and amortized datasets – check out the FOCUS introduction.
What’s new in the FinOps Framework
In April 2023, the FinOps Foundation announced some changes to the FinOps Framework – the start of a series of yearly updates we can expect going forward. We saw a few things in this release:
New definition of FinOps.
Expanded set of personas.
Simplified domains with clearer lines.
Cleaned up list of FinOps capabilities with some joined and some new.
I won’t go into the details of all the changes, but if you’re interested, check out Key 2024 Changes to the FinOps Framework: Evolving the Framework with the Practice of FinOps. Within the toolkit, you’ll find an updated Implementing FinOps guide with all the new and updated capabilities, including the supplemental content, like What is FinOps? and How to conduct a FinOps iteration.
Each capability was updated to include new and fresh guidance, including referencing new tools and solutions that have been released since our last major update. If you’re getting started with any capability, make sure you check out the Implementing FinOps guide to see how it can help you jump start your efforts!
And to add to that, we also renamed the “Commitment discounts” report in Power Bi to “Rate optimization” to align with the FinOps Framework changes. We envision dedicated reports for each FinOps capability, so let us know what you’d like to see by sharing your feedback in GitHub.
Optimize your cloud environment with Azure Optimization Engine
Over the years, some organizations tell us they’re looking for more configurability to Azure Advisor recommendations. Maybe they want to cover new scenarios or maybe they just want to increase the look-back period for existing recommendations. Whatever the case, this isn’t possible today with Azure Advisor, so customers have been looking to build their own solution. The Azure Optimization Engine (AOE) has been around since May 2020 as an open-source project run by Helder Pinto and we’re proud to add Helder to the FinOps toolkit family as he officially moved AOE into the FinOps toolkit!
There’s a ton to talk about with Azure Optimization Engine, so instead of trying to cram it all in here, I’ll direct you to several blog posts Helder’s published:
Augmenting Azure Advisor Cost Recommendations for Automated Continuous Optimization – Part 1
Augmenting Azure Advisor Cost Recommendations for Automated Continuous Optimization – Part 2
Augmenting Azure Advisor Cost Recommendations for Automated Continuous Optimization – Part 3
Automating Continuous Optimization with the Azure Optimization Engine
Get Azure Reservations and Savings Plans Insights with the Azure Optimization Engine
And of course, you can also learn more from the Azure Optimization Engine documentation. Stay tuned as we evolve the next generation of Azure Optimization Engine. And if you want to be part of the conversation, join us at The evolution of Azure Optimization Engine within the FinOps toolkit.
What’s new in FinOps hubs
FinOps hubs are data pipeline solutions that help you kickstart custom reporting efforts when you need more than what you can get in the Azure portal today. Instead of starting from nothing, you can deploy a FinOps hub instance and leverage pre-built Power BI reports to get up and running quickly. This month, you’ll find a few interesting updates with FinOps hubs that we’ll continue to build onto based on your feedback.
First up is FOCUS 1.0 support. I already talked about the fact that we added support for FOCUS 1.0 but I’d like to expand on that a little. FinOps hubs 0.4 now supports both FOCUS 1.0 preview or FOCUS 1.0. Data that is ingested will remain in storage in the schema it was ingested in, but the Power BI reports in 0.4 will all align to the FOCUS 1.0 schema. If you prefer to keep using FOCUS 1.0 preview, stick with the FinOps toolkit 0.3 reports. 0.3 and 0.4 reports are interchangeable and can work with either version of FinOps hubs, so feel free to try the new reports with an existing FinOps hubs 0.3 deployment or upgrade to get the other new features and keep using your existing reports without a concern. The only reason you really need to use the newer reports is if you want to start exporting FOCUS 1.0 data.
As part of adding support for FOCUS 1.0, we also streamlined the data ingestion pipeline to prepare for ingesting other datasets, which we’ll add in an upcoming release. In the meantime, if you’d like to add support for additional export types, you can create a custom mapping file and save it to config/schemas/<dataset-type>_<dataset-version>.json in hub storage. Use the existing FocusCost_1.0.json as a template. Keep in mind some datasets have different schemas for EA and MCA, which cannot be identified via these attributes and may cause an issue if you have both account types. We will add all datasets in a future release and account for the EA and MCA differences by aligning to FOCUS.
Next is managed exports. Managed exports are like managed disks for virtual machines. You grant the hub access to create exports on any scopes you want to manage cost for and it’ll create and run exports for you. You can grant access to any EA or MCA subscription or resource group, or any EA billing scope. MCA billing scopes will also be available in the future when Cost Management adds support for service principal access.
Speaking of data ingestion, we also added a feature called remote hubs, which enables you to ingest data from a hub instance in another directory (or tenant). To configure remote hubs, simply deploy a hub instance in the directory where you want to pull data from, create a SAS token for that hub storage account, and specify a SAS token to ingest data across directories. And when Cost Management exports support FOCUS data in other clouds, this will also enable those interested in consolidating data across Azure Commercial, Azure Government, or Azure China clouds to view all data in a single tool. Let us know what you’d like to see in this regard and we’ll share updates as capabilities evolve.
Lastly, I’d like to call out some improvements to the FinOps hubs and Power BI troubleshooting guide. We created a dedicated page for common errors and introduced a new step-by-step troubleshooting walkthrough to help validate your hub instance and Power BI setup. You’ll also find a new Ingestion errors page in the Data ingestion report, which can also help identify common issues. Oh, and I suppose I should also call out that the Commitment discounts report was renamed to Rate optimization to align to the FinOps Framework 2024 updates, which I mentioned earlier.
Other new and noteworthy updates
Many small improvements and bug fixes go into each release, so covering everything in detail can be a lot to take in. But I do want to call out a few other small things that you may be interested in.
In Power BI reports:
Use the new x_IncrementalRefreshDate column when configuring incremental refresh in Power BI.
View resource count and cost per resource in the Inventory page of the Cost summary report.
Simplify tag parsing with a new default “{}” value for tags to facilitate tag expansion.
Load data faster with less memory and fewer errors with simpler, optimized queries.
In Azure Monitor workbooks:
Get the latest updates from the Azure Advisor . For July, this includes:
New reservations recommendations with break-even point.
Redesigned sustainability tab.
Removed dynamic IPs from the public IP addresses query to ensure more precise results.
Excluded free tier web apps to focus on top services.
Monitor managed disks in the Governance workbook.
In the FinOps toolkit PowerShell module:
Track progress and retry throttling errors in Start-FinOpsCostExport.
Removed support for Windows PowerShell due to inconsistencies with PowerShell 7.
In open data files:
All open data files were updated to include the latest pricing units, services, resources, etc.
All dataset examples were updated to recent month to align with the new FOCUS 1.0 dataset.
What’s next
Looking forward, we’re planning to shift to smaller, more frequent updates. We published our goals for 2024 in our roadmap but here are a few highlights:
Power BI reports will expand to more FinOps capabilities and add support for raw exports without requiring the Cost Management connector or FinOps hubs.
Azure Monitor workbooks will continue to get recurring updates, expand to more FinOps capabilities, and add cost from FinOps hubs.
FinOps hubs will add support for more datasets, private endpoints, and large datasets in Azure Data Explorer.
Azure Optimization Engine will continue to receive small updates as we plan out the next major release of the tool.
Help and support experiences will continue to evolve across all tools.
Each release, we’ll try to pick at least one of the highest voted issues (based on :thumbs_up: votes) to continue to evolve based on your feedback, so keep the feedback coming!
And of course, you’ll continue to see updates for the Cost optimization workbook and open data files as usual. So stay engaged and let us know what works well and how things could be improved for you. Whether you’re using native products, automating and extending those products, or using custom solutions, we’re here to help make FinOps easier to adopt and implement.

Greek characters on plot being truncated
Hello all!
My problem is that my greek characters are being truncated when I try to use them in x- & y-axis labels. For example, the code:
ylabel(‘phi [cm^2]’,’FontSize’,14)
produces a y-axis label that looks like a lower-case _phi_ that has been cut in half. Has anyone encountered this problem before, or can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong? Thanks!

Graph Powershell SignInActivity.LastSignInDateTime very slow
Hello,
I have a list of guest users Im trying to audit and one of tasks would be getting a last sign in date so we can remove the oldest as usual.
There is one script that proved to be working the best for me, but execution is very slow for the users that probably do not have a last sign in date due to they are a very old abandoned guest account or did not accept the invitation. It gets “stuck” on those for a while which slows down the process and going over significant amount of users proves unreasonably long. It gets over those eventually and continues, but I cant run the script for so long for every user that does not have last sign in date saved.
Is there a way to make this faster or maybe skip the ones that take the longest? I think there may be a way to improve this method, but Im not that proficient with Graph and Powershell, so seeking advice.

Deprecation of Virtual Network Injection for Azure Data Explorer
We are announcing the deprecation of the feature of Virtual Network Injection for Azure Data Explorer. This feature allows customers to inject their Azure Data Explorer cluster into their own virtual network and control the inbound and outbound network traffic. However, this feature has limitations and challenges, such as:
Customers face a lot of maintenance work, because of things like updating firewall lists of FQDNs or using public IP addresses in a restricted and secured environment.
Customers are responsible for ensuring that the intra-cluster communication is working.
It requires a dedicated subnet for each cluster, which can lead to subnet exhaustion and increased management overhead.
It does not support cross-region or cross-subscription scenarios, which can limit the scalability and flexibility of the data platform.
Required actions
As a result, we are deprecating this feature and recommending customers to move as soon as possible to a private endpoint based network security architecture. A private endpoint is a network interface that connects you privately and securely to a service powered by Azure Private Link. Private endpoint uses a private IP address from your virtual network, effectively bringing the service into your virtual network. With private endpoints, you can:
Connect securely to Azure Data Explorer from your virtual network or from on-premises networks via VPN or ExpressRoute.
Access Azure Data Explorer from different regions or subscriptions without any public internet exposure.
Use all the Azure Data Explorer features without any limitations or trade-offs.
Reduce the network complexity and management overhead by using a single subnet for multiple clusters and services.
To help you with the migration, we have created a migration process (close to zero downtime).
We understand that this migration may require effort and coordination from your side, and we are here to support you along the way. We have scheduled office hours to answer your questions and provide guidance on the migration process. You can register for the office hours using this form. You can also reach out to us via email at ADXVnetDeprecation@microsoft.com.
Timelines
Please note the following important dates and actions regarding the migration:
Effective immediately, no new customers will be able to create virtual network injected clusters. Existing customers can continue to use their clusters until the migration deadline.
Starting from February 1, 2025, all running virtual network injected clusters will be stopped. Customers who have not migrated by then will not be able to start them until they complete the migration process.
To avoid any disruption, we strongly recommend that you migrate your clusters as soon as possible. You can follow the migration steps outlined in this document. If you encounter any issues or need assistance, please contact us at ADXVnetMigration@microsoft.com or join our office hours.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we deprecate the Virtual Network Injection feature and move to a more secure, scalable, and feature-rich network security architecture for Azure Data Explorer.
