These logon times can be configured using the calendar widget in Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC). However, PowerShell provides a more efficient and flexible alternative, particularly because it offers reporting capabilities that the graphical interface does not. - How to Report the Sponsors of Entra ID Guest Accounts [https://office365itpros.com/2025/04/18/guest-accounts-sponsors/] Entra ID populates the sponsor property for new guest accounts with details of the person who invites the guest to the tenant. It’s data that can be used for different purposes, such as having someone to justify the continued presence of a guest account in a Microsoft 365 tenant. This article explains how to report guest accounts and their sponsors with some straightforward PowerShell. - Why aligning equals signs in PowerShell hash tables matters [https://mikefrobbins.com/2025/04/23/why-aligning-equals-signs-in-powershell-hash-tables-matters/] If you ever formatted a hash table in PowerShell, you know how easy it is to focus on function over form. But what if one minor formatting tweak could improve readability, reduce syntax errors, simplify code reviews, and enhance script maintainability? - Windows PowerToys 2 in 1 Short cuts [https://blog.ifconfig.pro/2025/04/16/windows-powertoys-2-in-1-short-cuts/] In Windows 11 there’s a really powerful set of tools called “Microsoft PowerToys“. Within the features there’s a section to make your own shortcut hot keys under “Keyboard Manager” - Tab completions in PowerShell [https://www.damirscorner.com/blog/posts/20250425-TabCompletionsInPowerShell.html] While learning about Fast Node Manager, I noticed completions for PowerShell being mentioned in the documentation. I wasn’t aware of completions beyond filenames and cmdlets were even supported in PowerShell. I decided to try them out with Fast Node Manager first and then check if they are available for other command line tools I regularly use. - How to post on Bluesky with PowerShell [https://blog-en.topedia.com/2025/04/how-to-post-on-bluesky-with-powershell/] I wanted to know how to use the Bluesky APIs and PowerShell for new posts (or Skeets).

In this video, we explore how to leverage App Control to secure your Windows Server and manage it at scale using Microsoft Azure Arc. - PowerShell Execution Policy: A Comprehensive Guide [https://www.spguides.com/powershell-set-execution-policy/] Have you encountered an error “execution of scripts is disabled on this system” while trying to run a PowerShell script?

I tried to figure out how to change the default font in #Outlook (being annoyed that I would have to change it in 2 places if doing it manually through File > Options > Mail > Compose messages > Stationery and Fonts for New mail messages and for Replying or forwarding messages)

I asked #MSCopilot

It proposed the #PowerShell command
Set-MailboxMessageConfiguration -Identity $userPrincipalName -FontName $fontname

Turns out that is wrong. Correct is
Set-MailboxMessageConfiguration -Identity $userPrincipalName -DefaultFontName $fontname

While the AI help me to get on the right track, this demonstrates how dangerous (blindly) trusting the AI result is.

If this wouldn't have been easily verifiable (because it was basically a single line of code) and didn't fail it could have caused any serious of problems.
