By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: December 17, 2020

The newly announced Horizon View 6 flagship product from VMware brought great enhancements from the architectural point of view as you could already read about in my yesterday’s post. However from the administrator’s point of view (not from the architect’s perspective) there are some really cool features that I’d like to point out in this […]

How to reset ESXi root pasword

I had this question recently through an e-mail and was sure that I already wrote about it. After some research, I figured out that a blog post would clear my doubts. VMware says that it’s not possible to reset ESXi password on ESXi 6.x (and 5.x) systems. However, under certain circumstances, there is a possibility […]

Shadowing RDS connections in Windows 2012 R2

By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: April 9, 2014

Some sources reported that Microsoft has removed the possibility to shadow RDS connections in Windows 2012, but then put it back in the Windows 2012 R2 release.

Elevated Command Prompt in Windows 8.x

By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: March 31, 2014

One of the annoyances of W8.x OS (there are others too) is the fact that pressing WIN (Windows) + R and then typing cmd gives you command prompt window, but without elevated privileges.
