One part of that. I ran a FidoNet BBS right up to the early 2000s -- 2:25/108 -- and may have been among the last phoneline-based systems.-oblivion (February 10, 2020, 09:10 AM)
Can't think how I never noticed this before.
I've been after something that can do exactly what this does for ages. Specifically, since I noticed that I couldn't find a way to make runas work in other tools I use.
My first impression was slight confusion -- I think you have to have read the initial request and at least some of that background, and I found some of the screenshots helpful and illuminating too. Probably fullblown documentation is unnecessary but maybe a couple of lines of text with a brief description of what each of the fields is typically going to be used for, and a couple of complete examples maybe:
For instance, if I want a button that runs Active Directory Users and Computers as a user with admin privileges from an account without them, you might have:
Image file: <sysroot>System32\mmc.exe;0
Command prefix: runas /user:domain\superuser "<sysroot>System32\mmc.exe dsa.msc"
Button caption: something like "AD Users"
and Button tooltip: "Active Directory Users and Computers"
and "Ignore variable text" checked as this one's probably gonna have to be run locally
along with a little bit of explanation that, at least for its intended purpose, the variable's going to be the remote machine you're aiming the command at rather than anything else, everything would have fallen into place fairly quickly.
If I had a suggestion for a possible improvement: a checkbox that will assume the use of runas and a little bit of program allowing a username and password to be stored and easily amended with a view to adding them to the runas command in the appropriate place without displaying it in cleartext, that'd be rather lovely.
But in general: wonderful! Thanks!-oblivion (February 10, 2020, 11:39 AM)

Just reinstalled Windows 10 and as I'm using a Live account W10 has set the My Documents folder to my OneDrive[environment]::getfolderpath("MyDocuments")returnsC:\Users\katykaty\OneDrive\Documents
So FARR is storing config files in OneDrive, which I don't want, especially because the troubleshooting log often has trouble syncing.
So I closed FARR and edited the ConfigDir.ini file by adding the following line at the end, without comment slashesCONFIGDIR=C:\Users\katykaty\AppData\Roaming\DonationCoder\FARR\Config
Copied all the config files across and removed the initial config folder on OneDrive.
But FARR seems to be ignoring this and has created a new 'first run' folder in OneDrive.
I can obviously close and move the config files back so I don't lose my settings, but what am I doing wrong?
Thanks!-katykaty (January 06, 2020, 02:26 PM)
hamradio, correct me if i'm wrong, but it's a general utility that would let you make an updater for different portable applications, right?-mouser (January 04, 2020, 01:04 PM)
This looks interesting. But to be honest, I'm not really sure exactly what it is or how to use it. Is it an app to be used like DCUpdater used to be?
FYI VirusTotal shows 1/63 scanners marking the file as unsafe, and Jotti has 0/15 scanners marking the file as unsafe.
To others: Given that hamradio is a longtime, trusted member of this site, I feel it is safe to say that the 1 hit out of 78 scanners is very likely a false positive.-Deozaan (January 02, 2020, 11:22 PM)

I'm going to try updating a bunch of stuff on the member server.. what I could use help with is checking that I don't break anything on member pages.. Can folks who have a page on dcmembers report in here so we can check and make sure your pages are all showing as they should?
Probably the most important thing to check is any plugins you are using.-mouser (December 24, 2019, 09:03 AM)
Indeed it is! I should have read tips.txt again.-ConstanceJill (October 31, 2019, 07:30 AM)
2 - in your screenshot, there is no grid or visible separation between the column headers: I'm not sure if that's related to Windows 10's theme or due to a change you made, but I must admit I'm not a fan of this… imho it's better to have a visible indicator of where you should move the mouse cursor if you want to resize the columns, like I circled on the attached screenshot.
-ConstanceJill (October 31, 2019, 02:44 AM)
It should now be displaying the right side of the column.From the screenshots only, I didn't figure about the "\n"s not being visible, but since they can't be seen, that wasn't obvious… and I don't think I quite like that either
Since it is a dialog box intended for the user to review/change settings, and they are a part of those settings, I don't see much point in hiding them here. On the contrary, I suppose them not being visible might cause issues in figuring out exactly why a button is displaying as it is.
If you're editing the contents of a specific caption field, do the \n in that very field become visible then? If not, how do you make them visible, so you can know if there are any and where they are?-ConstanceJill (October 31, 2019, 02:44 AM)
I'm interested in the "linebreak" feature. Does that make like a horizontal line splitting the space in the interface into different areas, or am I misinterpreting it? If that's what it does, is there a way for the user to add some sort of header/title caption to the different areas?-ConstanceJill (October 31, 2019, 02:44 AM)
Alright then, I'm still using it every day at work so I'm available if you have a version you want tested-ConstanceJill (October 30, 2019, 04:00 PM)
it would be nice to see a recent screenshot.-mouser (May 01, 2019, 03:30 PM)
