Brother of sister in law is tin foil hat wearer. He has a 63 digit long random wifi password. She said he he also had to type in some commands into command prompt. Now that she is back home, her wifi crashes after 30 or 60 minutes until she reboots the computer (the driver "disappears" somehow. Network driver properties shows the message "There is no installed driver" even though it's right there in the driver tab).
How can I figure out what the fuck this guy did? Even uninstalling and reinstalling the driver doesn't fix it.

did u try turning it off and turning it back on again?
Have you tried installing Gentoo?

Just clean install Windows you fucknut. Or run sfc /scannow although that usually doesn't work with intentional breakadge by idiots.

It's just marketing. An OS is such a complex piece of hardware that it's absolutely impossible to decide which one is "the most advanced". They all have their advantages and disadvantages.

No but Amazon is hiring in my city and my 401k just vested. Should I go for it bro's?
Almost. It depends on what you go by, but In terms of revenue Salesforce is about to be #4.

why is amazon considered the big four and not something like samsung or apple?
>What’s this all about?
Explaining how to get a permanent license for windows 10 before microsoft pulls free upgrades on the 29th and starts charging $119 to upgrade. There's a pretty easy trick to keep using window 7 or 8, AND have the rights to install 10 at any time.
I also want to perma-answer the handful of questions /g/s been getting overrun with with so we don’t have to keep explaining this shit over and over.
>Do you like windows 10?
No. Fuck the store. Fuck the layout. Fuck the botnet. Also fuck micrsoft for shoving it down our throats all year like they believed only cortana's shiny blue ass could save our souls from eternal torment in the fiery pits of hell.
>So why would I ever want it?
Because there's some shit only Windows 10 does. DirectX12 is only on W10, so there will be at least some games that require it. Also many future Xbone games will be cross platform for W10.
>Fuck vidya.
Microsoft also builds a lot of security advancements into it’s newer OSes that never reach the old ones, so infection rates tend to be a lot lower. And in 2020 Windows 7 will stop receiving security updates too (like that shit that went down with XP a while back), so anyone who wants to keep using their shit as long as possible might want to keep their options open. Also W10 is supposed to be the last version of windows, with them just doling out more servicepacks instead of selling us a new OS every 3 years, hopefully making this the last time we have to have this conversation. It also means that we'll eventually start seeing more and more programs that require either Windows 10 or its (goddamn) app store.
***Tl;dr- Doesn’t take long to get a license, so why not? This way you've got it if you need it.***
>So how do I get a license without upgrading?
You upgrade. But then you just undo it. That’s the loophole: you don't have to KEEP W10 on your computer, you just have to install it once before the 29th, say for 5 minutes,
so the microsoft servers register your PC in their database. You then have a permanent "Digital Entitlement" on that computer, so you can go back to your old version of windows immediately, knowing that W10 is yours forever.
>How Do?
There's 3 ways this can go down…
1) The easiest method is to just upgrade to W10, then downgrade using the “Go Back” button in settings (available for 30 days).
2) If you’re specifically worried about windows messing up the install, you can make a system backup image instead with Macrium Reflect or similar, complete the upgrade, then use a recovery disk to restore the image.
3) Alternatively, you can always do a clean install of your old OS, so long as you have the means to install and activate it.
If you’re going with option 2, make a recovery disk and a backup of your system drive. Otherwise there’s no prep, just accept the Windows 10 upgrade. If you've been having trouble with the upgrade for some reason, you want to do this on multiple PCs, or you just don't want to bother using windows update, you can download the W10 install disk directly from microsoft's website:
microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
Click "Download tool now" to make a DVD or USB copy of W10. Then you can run the disc within windows (like installing something from a CD). Skip downloading updates. Once W10 is installed, make sure it’s activated itself online by clicking Start> Settings> Update & Security> Activation. Make sure it says “Windows 10 on this device is activated with a digital entitlement"
With W10 activated it’s time to restore your old copy of windows. For options 2&3 either boot the recovery disk to restore your system from backup or go ahead with a fresh install. Otherwise just use the 30 day "Go Back" option in W10 to recover your old copy of windows (stored in C:\Windows.old). To find it, click Start> Settings> Update & Security> Recovery, then hit the “Get started” button under Go back to Windows 7(or 8.1). Mission accomplished.
Frequently Asked Questions:
>Digital Entitlement? What is this BS? Where's my damn key?
"KEYS? Where we're going we don't need KEYS." Most versions of W10, including all free upgrade copies, don’t come with keys. A "digital entitlement" means that their servers have made a fingerprint of your PC (by recording it's hardware and motherboard serial number) and their database now shows that device "owns" a copy of Windows 10 forever. From then on every time you reinstall W10, it activates itself online automatically by checking that fingerprint against microsoft's records. So even if you used a W10 install disk to clean install your system, activating would be as simple as connecting it to the internet.
You should probably keep a copy of the key you got with your ORIGINAL windows 7/8.1 install (usually stuck to your system case anyway), because sometimes major hardware changes can cause the automatic activation to fail. In that case you would call the microsoft activation hotline and explain the situation to them. They usually correct things pretty easily, and the old key can often help with the process, which hasn't changed much since Windows 7. You might also need the old key if you decide to reinstall your original windows later on and you don't have any backups or recovery media with it pre-activated.
>If I upgrade do I lose my windows 7/8.1 license?
No, you can go back and forth as much as you want, as long as you have your old installer and key (or a backup/recovery). You're not officially allowed to have both versions of windows installed at the same time, like a dual boot or VM. The downgrade rights last until 2020 for windows 7 and 2023 for windows 8, when official support ends for the OSes.
>I heard people might start having to pay a monthly subscription for W10 in the future...
Nope. At least none of the PCs people already own have to worry about that. And you still have the option to go back to your old windows until at least 2020.
>I can't make W10 install. Something always goes wrong. Is there some way to make it work?
Try running the install disk (above) instead.
>If I upgrade from windows 7/8.1 retail, is my W10 also a retail(meaning transferable) version?
No. Your copy of W10 is locked to that PC. But if you uninstall windows from that computer entirely you can transfer your old windows 7/8.1 to another PC. To get W10 retail, you have to buy W10 retail.
>How do clean reinstalls work in windows 10?
All you need is that free install disk from the microsoft site. No keys, no HP/Dell recovery partitions taking up disk space. Just run and done. No activation required (if asked for a key hit skip and it will activate automatically over the internet).
>How do I downgrade to windows 7/8.1 if my computer came with 10?
Windows 7/8.1 are available as free downgrades IF you have the pro version of W10, otherwise you’re supposed to buy a copy. You would also need to make sure your core hardware actually has drivers for that version of windows. It's a bit complicated but here's instructions:

Is it worth following a CEH course that uses:
Windows 8.1 Enterprise/server 2012R2 as the Host Machine and and Windows 8.1, Windows 7, WindowsServer 2008R2, and Windows Server 2012 as the virtual machines?
I'm currently on Windows 8.1 Pro. Is there any risk of losing files switching between this Host Machine and fucking up my plex server for example?
