Choosing Between Graph API Requests or Graph SDK Cmdlets
Deciding whether to use Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK cmdlets or Graph API requests is sometimes not easy. Some say that it’s best to use Graph API requests everywhere and avoid the complication of possibly buggy Graph PowerShell SDK cmdlets. My approach is different. I start with Graph PowerShell SDK cmdlets and only resort to Graph API requests when absolutely necessary. It works for me!

How to Remove Windows 10 from Windows10/11 dual boot?
I’ve been running Windows 10 and Windows 11 as a dual-boot setup on my computer, but now I want to remove the Windows 10 installation altogether. However, I’m having trouble figuring out how to do this. Can anyone help me with this? I’ve tried using the built-in Disk Management tool to delete the Windows 10 partition, but it seems like that’s not a viable option. I’ve also tried using third-party software, but I’m not sure if those tools will actually remove all the files and registry entries associated with the Windows 10 installation.
Can anyone help me with this? Thanks.

Risk when pressing Ctrl+z in File Explorer
Hi, I have been facing a critical issue with my files when using Ctrl+z by mistake. I know that when clicking Ctrl+z in File Explorer, it Undo the recent action on the file. However, this will create an issue if it was done unintentionaly.
Scenario:
1- create a new file
2- open the file and type anything in it.
3- save the file and exit
4- press Ctrl+z : this will delete the file immidiately
The only way to recover the file is to press Ctrl+y, however, the content will be gone as if it was a new file.
I beleive that this would affect users data and they won’t be able to recover their recent work.

How to install Windows Server 2016 Core as a VM that has the GUI?
I have an installation of an ISO for Windows Server 2016 Core that I would like to run, but only within a VM but it came without the GUI, and I wanted to install the GUI version during setup but I wasn’t able to. And since I’m running this installation only for the VM, I’m not sure how to set it up in the VM with the GUI.
Upon opening the installation, I am only given the ability to type into command prompt, and I cannot install other modules from there using Get-WindowsFeature

Macro to find missing data points from list
Hi All,
I have a spreadsheet which records prices for items each per day (10am to 5pm). The spreadsheet records prices for many funds and timeslots, so when reviewing to see if any were missed for a period can be time consuming and hard to identify.
To help with this I was wondering if I can use a macro to find missing prices, given we have an expected price for 10:00,11:00,12:00,13:00,14:00,15:00,16:00,17:00 each day it has any price. So if a fund has no data/row of information at all for say 17:00, but prices for all other times on the same date it has been missed.
I have put together an example with two funds, being ABC and CAT. The example has prices for both funds at each time point on the first date, however then the 17:00 data is missing for CAT on the second. I would manually find this and put the information on the missing prices tab.
Since the spreadsheet can cover years of data, i often review a month or quarter at a time. So I am hoping to only include missed prices which are between the start and end of period dates given on the analysis tab.
Greatly appreciate any tips or insight on how to do this.
Many thanks

Matlab 2024a giving the wrong Jacobian

is this a bug? or what is the point?

How to change path scenario in Virtual Vehicle Composer?
Hello, I am developing some control logic in Virtual Vehicle Composer (VVC). There are some example scenarios like the one below. However, when I use the "Double lane change" scenario, the steering response is a bit weird (too sudden compared to other simulations such as CarSim). So, I want to know how to change the scenario or manually replace the driver model.
I tried once, but it was difficult to consider the related signals from other vehicles. If anyone has attempted this or if I could get some help regarding this, I would appreciate it.Hello, I am developing some control logic in Virtual Vehicle Composer (VVC).

How do I change the default thumbnail image on the SharePoint Document Library Web Part ?
Good morning,
I would like to change the image that appears by default when you put a document in thumbnail format on a SharePoint document library web part but there does not seem to be any possibility directly in the options of the web part.
I also tried to create a thumbnail image column (see image below) and put it in images or URL but it doesn’t seem to work either.
Please contact me if anyone has ever had this problem or if you have an answer to this problem.
