I don't know how well the technique may work on very large files or directories, e.g., ones that are multiple gigabytes, but I've found it works well at least for those several megabytes in size. I also have not tested what happens if you try another copy and paste operation before the first one has completed.

"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows Media
Player\wmplayer.exe" at a command prompt window (be sure to enclose the
command within double quotes since there are spaces in the
directory path). You might wish to do so if you are logged into
one user account, but wish to open a movie or music file that is
not accesible from the currently logged in user account. If you
wished to run the program from an administrator account, you can open a command prompt window as
an administrator or you can open a unprivileged command prompt window from
the currently logged in account and then use the runas /user
command e.g., runas /user:username
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe" where
username is the account name for the account from which you wish
to run the program. E.g., runas /user:jane "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows
Media Player\wmplayer.exe" to run the Windows Media Player with Jane's
account privileges. If you need to run the command from a
Windows domain
account, you can use runas /user:domainname\username
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe" where
domainname is the name of the domain and username is the
name of the domain user account. Once the Windows Media Player app
is open, you can then hit the Ctrl-O keys (the Ctrl
and the letter "O" key) simultaneously to open a window where you can then
browse for audiovisual files in directories to which the other user
account has access.
netstat -a -p TCP command at a command prompt.
The -a parameter specifies all connections and listening
ports should be displayed while the -p parameter can be
used to select a protocol from TCP, UDP, TCPv6, or UDPv6. If used with the
-s option to display per-protocol statistics, the protocol
argument may be any of: IP, IPv6,
ICMP, ICMPv6, TCP, TCPv6, UDP, or
UDPv6. If you only wish to view IPv6 TCP ports in use,
you can use netstat -a -p TCPv6. If you only wish to
see currently established connections, you can pipe the output of
the netstat command to the find command. E.g.,
netstat -a -p TCP | find "ESTABLISHED". Or, if you wished to
see all of the TCP ports on which the system was listening for a connection,
you could use netstat -a -p TCP | find "LISTENING". If you
wanted to see connections to a particular port, e.g., 22, for Secure
Shell (SSH) connections, you could use netstat -a | find ":ssh"
, which would show the IP addresses of the remote systems connected
via SSH, or netstat -a | find ":https" for
HTTPS connections to web sites. If you wished to see host names rather than IP addresses, you could
add the -f option, which displays a
Fully Qualified Domain Name
(FQDN) instead of an IP address for a remote system. E.g.,
netstat -a -f | find ":https". Since SSH, HTTP, and HTTPS
use TCP rather than UDP transmissions, you don't need to add the
-p parameter.
jar xf filename.jar command,
where filename.jar is the relevant .jar file, if you have
the Java
Development Kit (JDK) installed on the system — the JDK software
can be downloaded for free from Oracle's
Java Downloads
page.
Minecraft uses
.jar files for mods and if you wish to view the models (.json files), textures
(.png files) within a JAR file used by Minecraft, you can use the
jar xf filename.jar command to see those. If you
copy the .jar file to a directory where you wish to extract its contents
and then run the command from the directory in which the .jar file is located,
you should see a directory named assets appear beneath which you
can find blockstates, lang, models, and
textures subdirectories.
The .json files files, such as those you may see in a models/block
subdirectory are
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)
files, which you can view or edit in a text editor, such as the
Windows Notepad
application. The .png files, which you may see in a textures
subdirectory are Portable Network Graphics (PNG) files, which you can
view or edit in graphics applications such as
Microsoft Paint
on Microsoft Windows systems. You can also use a tool such as
Blockbench to work with the
JSON model files and PNG images.
wfs and then hitting Enter.
There are a few command line parameters you can enter when staring the
program from the command line. E.g., you can enter
wfs /swtich fax to start the program with its faxing interface;
wfs /switch scan is the alternative for starting with the
scanning option. Without those, the application will start in the last used
mode. For other possible arguments to the app, see
Windows Fax And Scan Command Line Options?
If you have a Portable Document
Format (PDF) file and wish to determine the version of the PDF standard
used for the document, that information is stored in the first line of the
file. You can open the file with a
text editor, such
as the Windows
Notepad application on a Microsoft Windows system and view
the first line to determine the PDF version used for the file.
You will see %PDF-x.y where x.y is the
version of the PDF standard used in the creation of the file,
e.g., %PDF-1.7 for version 1.7.
On a Microsoft Windows system, you could also open a
PowerShell window (you can type PowerShell
in the Windows Search field and click on the
application when you see it returned in the list of
results) and use the Get-Content
cmdlet
and the -First parameter followed by the number one.
E.g.:
PS C:\> Get-Content "July 2024 Newsletter.pdf" -First 1 %PDF-1.7 PS C:\>

I added two Western
Digital 10 TB hard disk drives to a Windows 11 system.
I wanted to have the second hard disk drive (HDD) mirror the first, which
is a
Redundant Array of Independent Disks 1 (RAID 1) configuration. You
can configure Windows to mirror the drives using the Disk Management utility
that comes with the Microsoft Windows operating system. To run the
utility, you can
open a command prompt with
administrator privileges and then type diskmgmt.msc
and hit Enter. You will then see a window showing all the drives
attached to the system. In this case, the new 10 TB drives are shown as
"unallocated", since they have not been partitioned and formatted yet.
