Is there a way to exculde a day from a daily backup in SSMS?
I created a daily maintenance plan in SSMS that included taking full backup of my DBs. The next day I changed the backup type from full to differential. So now, I have a full backup of one day and subsequent differential backups of a couple of days.
My goal is to take a full backup on Sunday night, and differential backups on every other night of the week. Is that possible in SSMS?

Error adding Exchange account to Outlook Application
I am now getting an error message in adding my Exchange account to Outlook Application. The error is couldn’t setup your account. Contact Email Admin. We have tried Autodiscovery in registry already HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftOfficex.0OutlookAutoDiscover , no luck. Also check with these keys HKEY_USERSDEFAULTSoftwareMicrosoftOffice16.0CommonIdentity. We have tried new profile, tried Microsoft 365, Exchange, and Outlook.com but all of them shows same error. I can login with my phone, tablet and https://mail.premium.exchange/owa/auth/logon.aspx website. The issue is just adding in Outlook Application using computer. I am using Microsoft 365 subscription. Please advise for the steps we could still perform. My account is not managed by an Admin , so there’s no way we could enable Modern authentication.

On Outlook with iOS birthdays, why are there duplicate entries, and also no contact name?
This is starting to piss me off.
I get that Microsoft and Apple don’t like to play nice together, but they make it impossible for users to self-remedy these issues. I don’t know who to b*tch to, so I’m b*tching to both.
First, there are duplicate birthday entries, even though in my contact list there are no duplicates, and I only have iCloud contacts.
Second, none of the birthday entries in Outlook show contact names.
Does anyone have a solution/workaround?

Mastering the Shorthand Syntax in your daily workflow
Introduction
In this tech blog, we’ll unravel the magic behind Azure CLI shorthand syntax and discover how it can elevate your command-line experience.
By unlocking the potential of Azure CLI Shorthand Syntax, we want to make your command-line experience as smooth as possible.
Quick walkthrough
Full Value Format: JSON without the quotes, making complex objects a breeze.
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,age:20,paid:true,emails:[Bill@microsoft.com,Bill@outlook.com],address:{country:USA,company:Microsoft,details:{line1:’15590 NE 31st St’,line2:’Redmond, WA’}}}”
Partial Value Format: Simplifying commands with key-value simplicity.
az some-command –contact name=Bill
az some-command –contact age=20 paid=true
az some-command –contact emails[1]=”Bill@outlook.com”
az some-command –contact address.details=”{line1:’15590 NE 31st St’,line2:’Redmond, WA’}”
az some-command –contact address.details=./address_details.json
Combine Full Value and Partial Value for ultimate flexibility.
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,age:20,paid:true,emails:[Bill@microsoft.com,Bill@outlook.com]}” motto=”One man’s bug is another man’s lesson.”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,??”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,address:??”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,address:{country:??”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,address:{country:USA},emails:??”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,address:{country:USA},emails:[??”
az some-command –contact name=”‘Bill RP'” data=”‘{a: [1, 2]}'”
az some-command –contact name=”‘null'”
az some-command –contact name=”‘bill’/s'”
?? for Help: Use ?? to reveal helpful hints, making your life easier.
az some-command –contact “??”
az some-command –contact “{??”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,??”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,address:??”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,address:{country:??”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,address:{country:USA},emails:??”
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,address:{country:USA},emails:[??”
az some-command –contact address=”??”
az some-command –contact emails=”??”
az some-command –contact emails[0]=”??”
Passing null Values: Effortlessly handle null values in both Full Value and Partial Value formats.
Pass null in Full Value:
az some-command –contact “{name:Bill,age:20,paid:true,emails:[Bill@microsoft.com,Bill@outlook.com],address:null}”
Pass null in Partial Value:
az some-command –contact name=Bill address=null
Single Quotes String is used to pass a string value with special characters: `:`, `,`, `{`, `}`, `[`, `]`, `null`, `??` and space. Because those characters usually have other meanings when parsing shorthand syntax. So with single quotes, it tells parser to parse as a string only.
Pass a String Value with Space and Special Characters
Crafting commands with spaces or special characters? No worries! Single Quotes String ensures your strings stay intact:
az some-command –contact “{name:’Bill RP’,age:20,paid:true,data:'{a: [1, 2]}’}”
az some-command –contact name=”‘Bill RP'” data=”‘{a: [1, 2]}'”
Pass a “null” String Value
Need to pass a string with the value “null”? Single Quotes String to the rescue:
az some-command –contact “{name:’null’,age:20,paid:true}”
az some-command –contact name=”‘null'”
Use ‘/ to Pass ‘: Handling the tricky single quote within a Single Quotes String? Use ‘/ to navigate smoothly:
az some-command –contact “{name:’bill’/s’,age:20,paid:true}”
az some-command –contact name=”‘bill’/s'”
az some-command –contact name=”bill’s”
Overall, our shorthand syntax is designed to streamline command creation, making it more concise and intuitive for day-to-day development around Azure CLI. By condensing commonly used parameters, it not only saves keystrokes but also enhances readability which will greatly beneficial to our codebase and CLI developer community.

Sticky Keys Taskbar icon
I am running Windows 11.
I recently had occasion to re-discover “Sticky Keys”. I had to make multiple selections in a row of data and it allowed me to lock the CTRL key and select individual items.
As I looked to find out more about this feature, there were many mentions of a sticky key icon on the taskbar.
I have not been able to see an icon when Sticky Keys is activated.
Please advise how I can have a Sticky Keys icon in the taskbar when the feature is activated.
thanks

Trouble Debugging AI Agent Bot in Teams Using Teams Toolkit in VS Code
I am trying to build an AI agent bot in Teams using the Teams Toolkit in the VS Code plugin, following the instructions in this LINK.
I was able to successfully complete it until step G, where I updated the Azure OpenAI key, endpoint and deployment name.
However, when I try to debug in the Test Tool, it does not open the bot, and it doesn’t get connected. I get the following error:
Please help me unblock myself. I also need help on how to finally test this in teams or a web app. Currently in the custom bot I created (in python), the config.py file requires bot ID and password (where do I get those?) but the link only instructs updating the Azure openAI credentials in .env.testtool.user. What am I missing?

Column Folder Proprierts Sharepoint
I created a flow in Power Automate that, among other things, creates a folder in a document repository containing a ‘Due Date’ column. When creating the folder using Automate, I can set a date for this column, but when I try to edit this column directly in SharePoint, the field does not appear for editing. How can I manually edit this field?”

To Do syncs the iOS updates with Mac but not vice versa
Anything I input on To Do on my Mac never shows up on my iPhone, but once I include an update on the iPhone, it syncs with Mac & overrides all the updates I had input on the Mac. That is, the iPhone invokes a true sync, but the Mac doesn’t. Any clues please?

How to find out the weight context of all Managed Properties
Hi there
I have a situation where I need to get the Context weight group of each managed property in our SPO tenant. I was hoping there was a way to get this with a Powershell script or some sort of hidden download option but I am not seeing anything.
Does anyone know if there is a way to get this information without having to go into each Managed property?
This is all related to search results that are showing up in a weird order and we are thinking that someone changed the weight group on something but I am at a loss as to where they changed it. So just trying to find a way to figure that out.
Thanks in advance.

Edge Bar still is there in new Stable version for Windows 10, but auto-start is disabled
We’re aware that the Edge Bar isn’t auto-starting and opening automatically for Windows 10 users after starting your desktop device. This functionality is temporarily disabled. We’re working on bringing back the ability for Edge Bar to start automatically when you start your device. In the meantime, you can still launch Edge Bar from within the Edge sidebar via the gear icon (found in the bottom right corner).

Siteground Email Calendar Missing
Hello,
I was originally a Microsoft 365 customer with GoDaddy Subscription.
Recently, I have switched my hosting from GoDaddy to SiteGround, including the domain and the email server and cancelled my service with Microsoft 365. All the email addresses used previously with GoDaddy under the domain was recreated in the new Email server.
For example, I had an email named email address removed for privacy reasons under Microsoft 365, a same email address email address removed for privacy reasons was recreated in my Siteground email server. Same as other email addresses.
After switching over, I am experiencing a few problems.
1. I cannot use the Outlook Calendar feature using the new email account when I log in using Mac Devices. However, if i login the email address using a Windows PC, I can find the calendar in the calendar app. Since I use Mac more often then windows, is there a way to configure the Mac Outlook setting to display the calendar on mac?
2. In Windows Outlook, I am able to switch the display name of my email address when I send out, but in Mac, that option is greyed out. Is that a bug issue or is there a way to fix it? (I figured out a way to edit the name by choose “Sync directly with IMAP”, but that will cost me the deliverability of the email address, which the mailbox has issue with receiving and delivering emails after using this method)
Here are the ways I have tried before:
1. Switching back to Legacy Outlook to do the change and switch back (No result)
2. Using Apple Mail (built-in APP) in mac to login, nothing wrong with the deliverability even if I login using sync with IMAP
3. Windows Outlook can do everything I mentioned in this discussion, the only issue is with Mac Outlook.
Please advise me with a possible solution that can fix this issue. I’ve read many threads about the same issue but none of them has a solution to it.
Thanks,
Ryan
