Spent £1,000 on Amazon, got Evri delivery... Mysteriously gone.

Just be aware that section 75 isn't necessarily guaranteed. Third party sellers (e.g. Amazon Marketplace) don't qualify. https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/section75-protect-your-purchases/ -
New KCSIE recommendation: Social Media checks on candidates
andy_b replied to RLR's topic in How do you do....it?
I believe we use https://www.carecheck.co.uk/social-media-checks/ . There is no way I'd be handing passwords over. That seems like a massive overreach. -
I would check with the manufacturer - they will often have a recommended process, e.g. https://kb.synology.com/en-uk/DSM/tutorial/How_to_migrate_between_Synology_NAS_DSM_6_0_and_later

Email to Test Message (SMS) Application For Windows
andy_b replied to FN-GM's topic in Enterprise Software
Not the solution you were after, but a solution that is relatively "private": Uptime kuma on hosted on a VPS with the Windows server using the push notification (polls a web address every 60s so no special ports to check etc) and then notification method of your choice. -

Well, got home and Cadent have cut through the incoming cable. That's not going to help... -

Mailmerge 200+ users with unique file attachment
andy_b replied to DalekSec's topic in How do you do....it?
Before Powershell, I used a combo of Excel and Send-It-Quiet Command Line sendmail tool. Got Excel to generate the unique command for each recipient with a bunch of concatenates and then pasted it into a commandline. Powershell is probably the better option though -

Been stable for me since about 08:00. Certain websites - youtube and amazon for example were available throughout -
Email host not receiving mail from BT addresses
andy_b replied to LeMarchand's topic in General Chat
Reverse DNS can really through a spanner in the works if not set up and you are mail hosting. -
I'd be using a dedicated user account for veeam and not change the password. But, if I were to change the password regularly I would do it in the credential manager.

I don't know how long the links stay "live", I know the links for my guests over a week ago no longer show photos. If this is for recent visitors it looks like you'd need to take it up with Inventry, as it isn't an O365 problem.
-
So what happend when you open the url associated with the embedded photo?
-
Working here - is the url getting blocked? https://inventryanywhere.co.uk/share/images2/XXXX/XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXX.jpg

Does anyone know how (if you can) control the default action of the "New" option in Forms? Ours defaults to "New Quiz" - but it used to default to "New Form". Another Tennant I have used has "New Form" as the default. I can't seem to find a setting that controls this. The only random thing that pops into my head is that one is using "Education" licenses and one is using "Business" licences...

Totally understand that this is a "better" way to do it, with built in documentation and scale. But I have to balance this with also showing staff how to turn a switch on at the wall when their laptop isn't charging.

You could create shortcuts with the necessary parameters already complete: https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:Streaming_HowTo/Command_Line_Examples/ then they would literally double click the icons to start.

VLC should enable you to do this.

IRIS sending the spam out even though we don't have / never had progresso: "I understand your progresso agreement is coming to an end very soon which will leave you in a vulnerable situation with regards to a working MIS system. IRIS is helping schools make an urgent transition from Progresso over to IRIS Edgen MIS with a guarantee of onboarding in time. Would it be possible for us to organise a brief call to discuss further and arrange a demonstration of our MIS?"

Outlook - auto replies everyday between a set time for user group
andy_b replied to jblackburnHWGA's topic in Cloud Services
I think it is one of those things that seems easy to do and a good thing to do, but the reality is somewhat different. -
Outlook - auto replies everyday between a set time for user group
andy_b replied to jblackburnHWGA's topic in Cloud Services
Would probably need to schedule a powershell script to run everyday to set Out of office from a CSV list of people?
