Apologies for the shouting but this is important.
When answering a question please:
- Read the question carefully
- Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar
- If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or mark it down. Insults are not welcome
- If the question is inappropriate then click the 'vote to remove message' button
Insults, slap-downs and sarcasm aren't welcome. Let's work to help developers, not make them feel stupid.

For those new to message boards please try to follow a few simple rules when posting your question.- Choose the correct forum for your message. Posting a VB.NET question in the C++ forum will end in tears.
- Be specific! Don't ask "can someone send me the code to create an application that does 'X'. Pinpoint exactly what it is you need help with.
- Keep the subject line brief, but descriptive. eg "File Serialization problem"
- Keep the question as brief as possible. If you have to include code, include the smallest snippet of code you can.
- Be careful when including code that you haven't made a typo. Typing mistakes can become the focal point instead of the actual question you asked.
- Do not remove or empty a message if others have replied. Keep the thread intact and available for others to search and read. If your problem was answered then edit your message and add "[Solved]" to the subject line of the original post, and cast an approval vote to the one or several answers that really helped you.
- If you are posting source code with your question, place it inside <pre></pre> tags. We advise you also check the "Encode "<" (and other HTML) characters when pasting" checkbox before pasting anything inside the PRE block, and make sure "Use HTML in this post" check box is checked.
- Be courteous and DON'T SHOUT. Everyone here helps because they enjoy helping others, not because it's their job.
- Please do not post links to your question into an unrelated forum such as the lounge. It will be deleted. Likewise, do not post the same question in more than one forum.
- Do not be abusive, offensive, inappropriate or harass anyone on the boards. Doing so will get you kicked off and banned. Play nice.
- If you have a school or university assignment, assume that your teacher or lecturer is also reading these forums.
- No advertising or soliciting.
- We reserve the right to move your posts to a more appropriate forum or to delete anything deemed inappropriate or illegal.
cheers,

Is there a program, either third-party or built into Windows that can test the effective bits per second between any two machines on a LAN?
How would I go about something like that?

Time a file transfer. Do a few of different sizes to see if it is determinate.

You can use a utility called iPerf - iPerf - The ultimate speed test tool for TCP, UDP and SCTP[^]
To run iPerf as a server on 1 Machine, open a command prompt(Administrator mode), navigate to the directory where you extracted iPerf, and run the following command, this starts iPerf in server mode, waiting for connections from the client machine -
iperf -s
Now run iPerf as a client on your other LAN machine, open a command prompt, navigate to the directory where you extracted iPerf, and run the following command -
iperf -c <your-server-IP-address>
This will give you a connection result in bps.

Here's something that's been perplexing me for a while:
My user account on a Windows 10 PC has several mapped drives that access various servers on the LAN. I'm able to use them just fine.
However, when I launch any program "As Admin", the mapped drives are not there, inside the program. It's as if I'm running as a different user when I launch programs as Admin.
But the perplexing part is that my user account is a member of the Adminstrators group.
So why doesn't it launch the programs as me, but with administrative rights?
And if it's not launching the programs as me, then who is it launching them as?
The difficult we do right away...

OK I see. I was assuming the cause was something other than what it really is. Thanks!

Perhaps the behavior exhibited is similar to the behavior of a web browser that is either started with administrative rights or is started in the default mode. Both modes, by the way, can be present under control of the same user. But if you'll notice, as an administrative starter, the webbrowser that is opened by "you" will no longer allow any external application to access it's "space". In my experience all administrative web browsers open at the time of an external app requesting use of the default windows browser will throw a brick until all administrative browsers relinquish whatever control they have over a running instance.
Not the same thing? Probably. Just seems like one could say "'Seen one vacuum behavior, 'seen 'em all".

Does anyone know where to find the documentation on grub? There's lots of places out there that give you a little information about how to handle simple tasks, like recreating the GRUB table, etc, but I'm looking for something more detailed.

No. My google-fu seems to have completely failed me in this respect. Thank you.

I have to admit it took a little forensic searching; the first link went to a street food venue in Manchester.

And it turns out that there's Grub info files installed on my system too.

Hello,
I've been tasked with implementing Strong Certificate Matching on Enterprise servers. After doing some research I saw that this could cause major authentication issues on Domain Controllers. Does anyone know how this is safely rolled out or has anyone does this in their environment yet? What systems does it affect?
Thanks

I think a kernel mode driver is chewing up all of the memory in my company laptop.
The Task Manager shows no process using an excessive amount of memory, but by the end of the day, all 16 GB of RAM is filled up and the page file is at its max. And no, the total RAM usage of all running user mode processes doesn't add up to 16 GB.
The only thing that fixes it is to restart the system. Signing out and back in doesn't fix it.
If it is a kernel mode driver doing it, how can I track down which one it is?

In Windows Task Manager you might want to look at:
PID
CPU
Mem Usage
Handles
USER Objects
I/O Reads
I/O Read Bytes
Keep the Task Manager open and watch to see if a process is doing this. If not then you might be right.
Thank you for asking.

Please read the message in red at the top of this page. If you have a technical question then try https://www.codeproject.com/Questions/ask.aspx[^]. But you will need to add considerably more detail. As it stands your question is far from clear.

As a heavy RDP user...don't. Let me repeat that:
DON'T.
The browser may only download the video file once and never need to fetch it again, but the RDP protocol is only seeing an always-changing area of the screen that constantly has to be sent back to the remote system, with no end in sight.
I've witnessed this first-hand, and can make an RDP connection become absolutely unusable. And it provides no value other than to "make things look pretty" to marketing weasels. I'm not kidding, this sort of thing makes my blood boil.
I cannot emphasize this enough.
DON'T.
