Une mise à jour silencieuse que Microsoft déployé largement en juillet et août empêche le dispositif de « réparation » de Windows XP d'accomplir avec succès.

Depuis que le téléchargement récent de la compagnie de Redmond du nouvel appui classe pour la mise à jour de Windows, les utilisateurs de la fonction de la réparation de XP ont ne pu pas installer les dernières 80 pièces rapportées de Microsoft.

Les installations réparées de XP ne peuvent pas être mises à jour

La difficulté se produit quand les utilisateurs réinstallent les dossiers de système de XP en utilisant les possibilités de réparation trouvées sur les disques compacts-ROM véritables de XP. (Le dispositif n'est pas présent sur des « CD de restauration.  ») L'option de réparation, qui est typiquement utilisée quand XP pour quelque raison devient unbootable, roule beaucoup d'aspects de XP de nouveau à un état primitif. Il élimine beaucoup de mises à jour et pièces rapportées et place l'Internet Explorer de nouveau à la version qui s'est à l'origine transportée avec le logiciel d'exploitation. (plus…)

Windows Vista vient avec une collection de construit dans des outils de diagnostic de réseau de l'indicateur de connectivité de réseau (NCSI) au réseau et centre de partage. Essentiellement Microsoft a construit Vista pour identifier des problèmes tous seule, proposé une résolution et puis pour fixer le problème. At the basis of the self diagnosis mechanism is the Network Diagnostics Framework, a feature integrated by default into the operating system designed to identify and isolate context sensitive problems and repair them automatically or provide guidance for the end user in troubleshooting common networking issues. And yet, in some scenarios all the mitigations set up by the Redmond company in Vista will fail miserably.

Microsoft confirmed that Windows Vista-based machines can experience a variety of issues when connecting to a wireless network environment. (more…)

The Safely Remove Hardware mechanism is by no means something new to Windows Vista. In fact the feature has only survived into Vista with little to no enhancements. Essentially, Safely Remove Hardware is an integer part of the Vista model for managing Plug and Play devices, designed to notify the operating system that a certain item will be removed. The feature will make sure that there is no more interaction between Windows Vista and the Plug and Play hardware attached in order to streamline the removal of specific devices without having to shut down the operating system and without leading to loss of data.

“Some Plug and Play devices can be installed or removed while the system is running. For example, USB, IEEE 1394, and PC Card devices can be added to and removed from a fully powered system. When such hardware is added or removed, (more…)

The tool offers an extra layer for the runtime verification of unmanaged code, on top of the basic application testing associated with the development process. Microsoft in fact boasted that the tool is capable of identifying even the most subtle of programming errors, including problems with heaps, handles and locks.

“Application Verifier is a runtime verification tool for unmanaged code that assists in quickly finding subtle programming errors that can be extremely difficult to identify with normal application testing,” revealed the Microsoft description. (more…)

The Ajax View JavaScript Instrumentation Proxy is the end result of the work from Microsoft Research. Essentially the tool is designed to act as a HTTP proxy focused on monitoring the performance and behavior of JavaScript applications within Internet Explorer 7, although Ajax View is not limited to just Microsoft’s browser. The Redmond company only recently delivered a public version of Ajax View under an academic and non-commercial use license.

“Ajax View is an HTTP proxy that instruments JavaScript as it’s served to the client based on a set of rules defined by plug-ins. The download includes a plug-in that contains a commented sample instrumentation policy. This design has a couple important effects. [First off] you can customize Ajax View to monitor exactly the JavaScript behavior you’re looking for, whether it’s about performance, or how people navigate through your site. And using Ajax View does not require modification of either the page source or the browser,” explained John Hrvatin, Program Manager, Internet Explorer. (more…)
