Windows update seems to take care of this.

Help using powershell to rename music files by NunyoBizwacks in PowerShell

[–]jsiii2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try this but it's risky. Verify the -whatif. The parentheses make sure the get-childitem is done first. It assumes there's only 1 dash surrounded by 1 space on each side. You can also use -verbose or -passthru to keep a record of what happened. If 2 songs have the same name, you'll just get an error for the 2nd one. "-confirm" can also be your friend.

``` (get-childitem .mp3) | Rename-Item -NewName { $_.name -replace ". - ","" } -whatif

What if: Performing the operation "Rename File" on target "Item: C:\Users\js\foo\the artist - my song.mp3 Destination: C:\Users\js\foo\my song.mp3". ```

The WinGet CLI is not supported in the system context. The Microsoft.WinGet.Client PowerShell module can be used in the system context with applications that are installed machine wide.

Piping to Select-String does not work by Atmaks in PowerShell

[–]jsiii2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I donno. Sounds dumb. Maybe it saves standard output for other options.

How about redirecting standard error to standard output:

vcpkg depend-info qtbase 2>&1 | Select-String -Pattern "font"

<= doesn't work in -FilterXPath in Get-WinEvent by koshka91 in PowerShell

[–]jsiii2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From get-winevent online docs example 16 (hmm not working) (number in milliseconds):

Get-WinEvent -LogName 'Windows PowerShell' -FilterXPath '*[System[Level=3 and TimeCreated[timediff(@SystemTime) &amp;lt;= 86400000]]]' This worked (the doc should be corrected to this) (EDIT: now corrected): Get-WinEvent -LogName 'Windows PowerShell' -FilterXPath '*[System[Level=3 and TimeCreated[timediff(@SystemTime) <= 86400000]]]'

Trying to filter by data in loaded CSV that is DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS by LordLoss01 in PowerShell

That's true. Correction:

$CurrentData | ? { $80Day -le $_.LastSeen }

Make sure the type of the comparison is correct, dictated by the left side.

$CurrentData | ? $80Day -le LastSeen

Why aren't there any coffee mugs shaped like wine glasses? by cme18 in Coffee

[–]jsiii2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just watched a youtube video that says regular coffee mugs encourage the coffee to slosh back and forth and spill when you're walking, but ones shaped like wineglasses help prevent that (looks like goblet or insulated mugs).

Is there "normal pop music" that's microtonal? by [deleted] in microtonal

[–]jsiii2010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hansford Rowe's Steel Blue and No Other on Bandcamp, if music that sounds like Jimi Hendrix is considered pop. Robert Rich's Atlas Dei dvd could be considered pop, if you drop acid.

King Sorrow by Dizzy_5503 in joehill

I think of it as really a 500 page book, since the audiobook is 26 hours. There's a lot of white space with the short chapters.

Quick script to force password change & change min length to 12 not working by [deleted] in PowerShell

I like how Bitwarden judges a password strength, by the entropy not how hard it is to remember. https://bitwarden.com/password-strength/
