Next: Slaying the assembly conflict dragon with Assembly Load Contexts by @jborean.bsky.social #PSConf

πŸŽ‰ Big news! We've secured a $3M, three-year sponsorship from @devolutions.net This sponsorship will allow us to speed up development, improve docs & tooling for all the community's benefit! πŸš€ Read about it here: github.com/AvaloniaUI/...

Exposing PowerShell Universal as an MCP server to GitHub Copilot in @vscode.dev blog.ironmansoftware.com/powershell-u...

Just when I thought I had seen it all, here's @adamdriscoll.bsky.social showing off a demo of an MCP server built on top of PowerShell Universal. In other words, expose PowerShell cmdlets as tools you can call from your favorite LLMs. I'm told a blog post about this is coming up soon 😜

"Creating a simple PowerShell repository with Sleet" from @adamdriscoll.bsky.social is about to begin! #PSConf

Rise and shine, #PSConf! 🌞 Waking up to this MalmΓΆ view πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ͺ – ready for day one! πŸš€

I have (finally!) arrived at the hotel in MalmΓΆ, ready for #PSConf this week!

WinUIShell v0.4.0 is now a self-contained release which means you don't need to install any other dependencies. Install-PSResource WinUIShell. You are ready to create a WinUI 3 window from PowerShell. github.com/mdgrs-mei/Wi...

I'm looking for .NET MCP servers using the Semantic Kernel SDK that wrap existing #PowerShell cmdlets. Has anyone experimented with this approach yet?

We should probably start to consider what the impact of using AI coding tools *all the time* will result in for: - Very experienced software engineers - Somewhat experienced folks (e.g. "mid-level") - Entry-level folks What is the good? The bad? The ugly of all of this?

Someone automated the creation of a very large number of spam threads on our forums to then post a lot of the links using spam accounts on Bluesky. Not only does this accomplish nothing, it's creating a lot of work on our side to clean up this mess and block whoever is doing this πŸ‘‡

It's here - a first release of RdpCredProv, a Windows credential provider with autologon capabilities better than the original! πŸš€ Yes, it works even with the Hyper-V enhanced session mode! Grab a copy from github.com/Devolutions/... and then follow the instructions from the readme πŸ‘‡

Does anyone know how to load a decent image with transparency in a Windows credential provider? ICredentialProviderCredential::GetBitmapValue expects an HBITMAP handle, and nothing appears to work well so far

The Winlogon registry keys for autologon don't work with the Hyper-V enhanced session mode, so I undusted an old credential provider in C++, made it load default credentials from the registry, and poof, it works! This will be very useful for lab environments πŸ‘‡

Good Monday morning tech nerds. One of my devs wrote *another* blog post about kerberos (I'm creating an army of crazy bloggers). This one you might consider bookmarking.

Are you using Windows Admin Center? If so, what do you use it for the most? If not, why? www.microsoft.com/en-ca/window...

I'm trying to upgrade my scripts to install Windows Admin Center V2 - why does it feel like a task of reverse engineering installers? It's a .exe installer now instead of an .msi, options have changed, and it's frankly not very straightforward: blog.markic.org/2025/03/03/d...
