Software Archives : Microsoft

Being in the IT Industry for 30 years, I have been accumulating tons of software, tools and utilities over these years. Some are useful tools during that era while some are just for testing and of course some are for real production use.

There are many CDs and DVDs lying around my closet and it's time to clean those up. But instead of discarding it, I convert it to ISO file and upload to Internet Archive Database. The purpose is to share it to the world and of course for archiving purposes.

Note that these ISO were created/converted using a physical CDs & DVDs, it was in its original genuine form. These discs are either purchased as a Retail box or from Microsoft Action Pack (back in those days), while some are bundled with the purchase of a computer (Laptop, Desktop & Server)as OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer).

So I can vouch that these ISO files were 100% Genuine and Original, No Tampering, No Modification and most importantly No Virus. But don't just take my words for it, always do your own scanning and do Checksum comparisons for safety and security reasons.

Oh, don't ask me for their License Key (aka CD-Key, Activation Key), although it is Genuine and Original and was purchased through legal channel(s), sharing those key to the public is a violation of Copyright Act. Please also do not request for any software I don't owned.

The list may not be exhaustive or whichever Edition/Version I have, and will be updated from time to time as I'm still doing the conversion.

Proxmox VE : Turn Off "No Valid Subscription" Message

This "No Valid Subscription" message will be displayed on each login in Proxmox VE server. Some Hobbyist may find it annoying at times.

Disabling this message is NOT recommended for Users with valid subscriptions and on Production servers. It is only for Home Lab environment.


1. First, login via SSH to Proxmox VE server.


2. Change the working directory to :-

cd /usr/share/javascript/proxmox-widget-toolkit


3. Make a backup of the following file.

cp proxmoxlib.js proxmoxlib.js.bak


4. Search for the following block of code.


if (res === null || undefined || !res || res
     .data.status.toLowerCase() !== 'active') {
     Ext.Msg.show({
               title: gettext('No valid subscription'),
               icon: Ext.Msg.WARNING,
               message: Proxmox.Utils.getNoSubKeyHtml(res.data.url),
               buttons: Ext.Msg.OK,
               callback: function(btn) {
                     if (btn !== 'ok') {
                          return;



5. Modify the block of code as show below.


if (false) {
     Ext.Msg.show({
               title: gettext('No valid subscription'),
               icon: Ext.Msg.WARNING,
               message: Proxmox.Utils.getNoSubKeyHtml(res.data.url),
               buttons: Ext.Msg.OK,
               callback: function(btn) {
                     if (btn !== 'ok') {
                          return;



6. Proceed to save the configuration and exit.


7. Now, restart PVE service as shown below.

systemctl restart pveproxy


8. Next, login back to Proxmox VE Web UI and upon successful login, the "No Valid Subscription" message is longer displayed.

Windows 10/11 : Batch File to Start and Check Windows Services

Create a batch file to check the status of a Windows Service(s) and start it if its not started. The batch file can also be run inside "Task Scheduler" at an interval basis.


1. First, you need to find out the Service Name that you want to monitor, in this example let's say the service you need to monitor is an Exchange Server IMAP4 service.


2. Open --> Services and browse through the list until you found the IMAP4 service.


3. Right-click the Service Name --> Properties.


4. Take note of the "Service name:", copy the name to Notepad. As per below screenshot, the service name is "MSExchangeImap4".



5. Create a batch file as below :-


@ECHO OFF
CLS
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
SET /A RETRY_IMAP=0
SET /A MAX_RETRIES=3
SET EXCH_IMAP= MSExchangeImap4

REM To check current status of the service.
:check_imap
SC QUERY %EXCH_IMAP% | FIND "RUNNING" >NUL
IF %ERRORLEVEL%==0 (
    ECHO Exchange IMAP4 Service is Running.
        GOTO end
)

REM To start the service if the status is stopped.
ECHO Exchange IMAP4 Service is Stopped.
SC START %EXCH_IMAP%
TIMEOUT /T 10 >NUL

REM To re-check the service status again for confirmation.
SC QUERY %EXCH_IMAP% | FIND "RUNNING" >NUL
IF %ERRORLEVEL%==0 (
    ECHO Exchange IMAP4 Service is Running.
        GOTO end
)

REM Retrying to start the service with a maximum of 3 retries only.
SET /A RETRY_IMAP+=1
IF !RETRY_IMAP! LSS %MAX_RETRIES% (
    ECHO Retrying Start %EXCH_IMAP% (Attemp: !RETRY_IMAP!).
    GOTO check_imap
) ELSE (
    ECHO Max Retries Reached for %EXCH_IMAP%, will stop retrying.
        GOTO end
)

:end
EXIT



6. You can now test run the batch file and create a "Task Scheduler" to run the check at an interval basis (eg. every 2 hours or at Startup of the server).

Nomodeset : Proxmox and Ubuntu

At times where the connected Monitor or Graphics card are unable to support certain resolution, either the wordings is too small to read or overly large making some info or buttons unable to be seen.

A simple fix is to "edit" the grub boot file and this can be done on-the-fly easily.


1. During the boot-up, select the appropriate install option and Press [E] to edit the boot-up configuration.


2. Append the "nomodeset" word at the end of the following line.

for Proxmox :-
linux     /boot/linux26 ro randisk_size=16777216 rw quiet splash=silent proxtui vga=788 nomodeset

for Ubuntu :-
linux - /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-41-generix.efi.signed root=UUID=7x357f9a-47e7-946e-499eBee8adic ro quiet splash nomodeset svt_handoff


3. Proceed to save and exit the configuration file, Press [CTRL] + [X].



If you want the changes to be permanent after installation completed, you will need to modify "GRUB" file with the same option.

4. Edit the "GRUB" configuration file.
sudo nano /etc/default/grub


5. Append the "nomodeset" as shown below.
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet nomodeset"


6. Update the "GRUB" configuration.
sudo update-grub


7. Finally reboot the server for the new configurations to take effects.
