Many articles describe how to disable a service plan for a product license assigned to a Microsoft 365 account, but few cover how to enable service plans should the need arise afterward. This article covers the basics of disabling and enabling service plans for Microsoft 365 licenses using PowerShell, including the very important step of finding existing disabled plans. Everything’s easy once you know how.

Hey,

I am trying to achieve something that would seem reasonably simple but just doesn’t work.

I have 2 ranges e.g. A1:A3 and C6:C8 and I want to use these in an array.

So when I use ={A1:A3,C6:C8} i except to see an output of:

<content of cell A1><content of cell C6><content of cell A2><content of cell C7><content of cell A3><content of cell C8>

what i see instead is the incredible helpful error message of “the formula in this cell contains an error”

I tried both both the column and row seperator ( , ; ) but both lead to the same error message.

We are trying to get our printers to backup and restore with FSlogix. A user installs a printer from our Pritnerlogic site. However after logoff and a new machine is spun up, that printer is no longer installed. Looks like FSlogix is not backing that up. We have tried a custom XML, but no luck so far. Has anyone had luck getting FSlogix to backup printers?

Hello,

I need clarification on licensing terms for using the MSVC Toolchain for cross-compiling open-source software on Linux.

In my current project, I’m building open-source software on Linux for Windows, and this requires specific MSVC components (headers, libraries, linker, etc.). Currently, the only official way to acquire these files is through the Visual Studio Installer, which isn’t compatible with Linux, even when using Wine. As a result, third-party tools are necessary to obtain the required files.

After reading through the licensing terms for Microsoft Diagnostic Build Tools for Visual Studio 2022 (link to license terms), I found some relevant information under Section 4, Scope of the License:

“Unless applicable law gives you more rights despite this limitation, you may use the software only as expressly permitted in these license terms. In doing so, you must comply with any technical limitations in the software that only allow you to use it in certain ways. In addition, you may not:
• work around any technical limitations in the software; …”

To work around the Visual Studio Installer’s incompatibility with Linux, I’m considering developing an open-source tool to download the necessary MSVC files. However, from my understanding, such a tool might violate the Microsoft Software License Terms for Visual Studio 2022 Remote Debugger, IntelliTrace Collector, other debuggers, agents, and build tools because it could be interpreted as circumventing a technical limitation in the Visual Studio Installer.

Since I’m not a lawyer and English is my second language, I might have misunderstood some details. My primary concern is to avoid any risk of violating Microsoft’s licensing terms or having my GitHub repository taken down if I publish this tool.

So, my question is: If my understanding is correct and this approach would indeed violate the Terms of Service, is there an alternative licensing option available that would allow me to develop an open-source tool to download MSVC build files on Linux for cross-compilation purposes?

Thank you in advance for any guidance.

Hello everyone,

I’m encountering an issue while trying to upload a Win32 app to Intune. The app is an .exe installer that I converted to an IntuneWin file before attempting the upload using a PowerShell runbook. Everything goes well until I try to invoke the commit. At that point, I consistently receive an error from the API, stating that the commit file upload failed.

I’m also uncertain about the encryption parameters for the upload file and how to correctly set them, which might be contributing to the issue. I haven’t found sufficient documentation to resolve this.

Has anyone successfully navigated this, or could offer advice on the correct encryption parameters and other troubleshooting steps? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

TL:DR How do I reenable unverified extensions for development, after disabling through “Disable unverified extensions in Developer Mode” notification? Switching to Beta or Dev insider channel didn’t help.

Hello, I wanna learn about browser extension development, which ofc requires Developer Mode being on. Because unverified extensions can be malicious, you can’t make the “Turn off unverified extensions in Developer Mode” notification stop appearing, and so I chose to just let it have its way to leave me alone. Inconvenient mistake.

Doing this disables any unverified extensions that I sideload (as the notification says), so I asked CoPilot for help. CoPilot said I could enable the extensions again using either the Edge Dev or Canary channel, so I tried the Beta and Dev channel. Beta with and Dev both with and without importing my data from the normal Edge browser, but neither did anything, since all unverified extensions are still disabled, even when I enable them in the “Manage extensions” page.

Is there some way to actually turn off the security disabling, in the Insider channels (Beta, Dev and Canary)? I really want to continue learning about extension development, so it’s a little inconvenient that the unverified extensions don’t feel like being enabled ever again, even when they’re my own.

Hi everyone! 

Since yesterday, all my Workspaces had their own favorite bars. When I reopened Edge this morning, I was shocked at first, because I thought my favorites had all disappeared. But it turns out they are now hidden under a folder on the left of the Favorites Bar, making it annoying and cumbersome to access them and the rest of the Favorites bar is now shared among Workspaces.

I don’t know if I accidentally changed an option but I couldn’t find a way to revert it back to how it was.

I also couldn’t find any information on this being a new feature that was introduced yesterday. If it is, I really don’t like it because I don’t want to see my work related tabs when I am in my free time workspace and clicking an extra folder each time I want to access a workspace is really cumbersome.

Has anyone else noticed this change? I really hope it is an option. 😅
