This is a interesting and describing forum post about Lenovo putting some Lenovo CrapWare in the UEFI BIOS which Windows will execute upon login (right before actually): http://arstechnica.com/civis/viewtopic.php?p=29497693&sid=ddf3e32512932172454de515091db014 Lenovo has issued a fix: https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/product_security/lse_bios_notebook and an article: http://news.lenovo.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=2013

This might work in previous versions of Windows, but I've only tried it in Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. I've got a MFP (multi-function printer) from Dell that I use to scan directly to a shared folder on my computer. For this I use a seperate user that has share/write permissions on a shared folder. I don't want to show this user in the Windows 10 list, so here is how to hide it: Start regedit and navigate here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon Create a new sub-KEY under Winlogon named ' SpecialAccounts ' Create a new sub-KEY under SpecialAccounts named ' UserList ' In UserList, create a DWORD (32-bit) and give it the name of the user account. Leave the value at 0. Log out or Reboot Update: Verified to work in Windows 10.

If you just found a gigantic c:\hiberfil.sys, it's your hibernation save file. If you don't use hibernation, turn it off and reclaim the space. On my new rig, I have a sweet 32GB of RAM, and my hibernation file at this point was 26GB. That's a lot of wasted space on an SSD drive when I don't use hibernation. To disable hibernation and remove this file in Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8, open a command prompt as administrator and type: powercfg -h off This should turn of hibernation and delete the big file automatically :) For Windows XP, just go to Control Panel > Power Options > Hibernate tab .

Microsoft documentation about  Netsh AdvFirewall Firewall Commands . You'll also find the entire chapter  Netsh Commands for Windows Firewall with Advanced Security  which describes the Consec, Firewall, MainMode and Monitor commands in each section

Short but good article from VMWorld 2011 #GD21 - vSphere Guest OS Partition Alignment http://blogs.vmware.com/vsphere/2011/08/guest-os-partition-alignment.html So we have Windows Vista, 7, Server 2008, RHEL/CentOS 6 that aligns automatically. W2K3 doesn't!
