I am using MobaXterm Professional Edition v22.1 Build 4888 (windows).
I have a lot of saved sessions inside MobaXterm, a lot of them with saved credentials.
How can I export sessions without saved credentials?

I installed tee-clc 14.135 using brew install on MacOS Catalina. I set it up with my credentials that were saved and every time I do checkin it uses those credentials.
tf checkin
Access denied connecting to TFS server http:severname:8080/ (authenticating as UserName/DomainName)
I need to substitute cached credentials with the new ones. Any ideas how to do so?
I tried:
export TF_AUTO_SAVE_CREDENTIALS=1 and using different credentials.
Uninstalling tee-clc didn't help. Still picks up old credentials
I need to substitute cached credentials with the new ones.
You could clear mac cached credentials by reference to Password, Credential Manager and Keychain Editing for guidance.
If you use Eclipse, please close all Eclipse instances, clear TFS/DevOps caches %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Team Foundation\x.0\Cache, and restart the Eclipse as Administrator.
If you use Visual Studio, please refer to this thread: Clear stored TFS credentials in Visual Studio for more details.
In addition, if your organization is secured with a firewall or proxy server, please refer to this doc: Allowed address lists and network connections to configure your Network environment.
BYW, this thread talks more about this issue, might be helpful too.
I have a client who uses Firefox as their primary browser. We have enabled folder redirection for their Desktop and Documents folders via GPO and I was hoping to do the same with their Firefox bookmarks as all users have a desktop and access to a Windows 2008 R2 RDS session for remote access and a few have laptops.
I understand there's 2 ways to do this:
Enabled Firefox sync. My issue with this is it's all user-driven. They have to sign up for it, manage their password, enable it when using on other machines, etc...
Turn on the Appdata\Roaming folder redirection GPO. However, I've read on several different forums that this can cause issues for various applications, most commonly Adobe Reader, so I'd like to avoid it if possible
Does anyone know of another reliable server-side policy to enable syncing of Firefox bookmarks between multiple machines for users in an AD environment?
Thanks for any insight you may have.
You could sync the AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox directory, if that's an option in GPO.
Otherwise, you could place the Firefox profile folder in a directory that gets synchronized (like Documents), instead of in its default location, and then set up Firefox on each computer (using the Profile Manager) so it looks in that directory for its profile.

I have my hard drive from my old workstation, I did not export the PuTTY session from my old machine. I am in a situation that I am not able to boot from it, but I have it as a slave drive.
Is there any way I can scavenge the PuTTY sessions from that hard drive?
The PuTTY sessions are stored in Windows registry in key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\SimonTatham\PuTTY
If you have a raw file system access only, you have to use some tool that can decode the HKEY_CURRENT_USER registry file C:\Users\username\ntuser.dat.
One freeware tool that can do this is MiTeC Windows Registry Recovery.
For details on the process see my guide How do I transfer my settings to another computer, when source computer is not running anymore?
The guide is for transferring settings of WinSCP client, but will work for PuTTY too. Just substitute key path Software/Martin Prikryl/WinSCP 2 with Software/SimonTatham/PuTTY.
I have successfully captured an image using sysprep and can provision new machines from it, however all the custom user settings are missing (desktop shortcuts, chrome bookmarks etc...).
A more serious issue is that one of the applications I had installed fails on the provisioned machine unless run as administrator (due to the way it writes some files when being installed originally).
How can I ensure this profile information is preserved and I don't hit the permissions issue for the application?
I have been pointed at the following link (http://theitbros.com/sysprep-xp-sp3-copy-administrator-profile/) but it seems to be Win XP specific.
Profile information can be migrated to a new deployment using the User State Migration Tool (USMT). USMT is a free tool designed to help IT Professionals migrate files and settings to Windows 7 or Windows 8. USMT captures user accounts, user files, operating system settings, and applications settings and then migrates them to the new Windows installation. The TechNet articles ‘Step-by-Step: Basic Windows Migration using USMT for IT Professionals’ and ‘User State Migration Tool 4.0 User’s Guide’ are good places to start learning how to use USMT.
For your application issue, I would recommend using the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) for your deployments. MDT can deploy your image and then install device drivers and applications to the machine automatically. These two video walkthroughs are specific to migrating from Windows XP to Windows 7 with MDT, and using USMT to migrate the user files and settings:
Part 1: Building the Deployment Environment
Part 2: Initiating the Install and Migrating the PC
There is also a Microsoft Virtual Academy 7 part course titled ‘Migrating from Windows XP to Windows 7’ that has two parts dedicated to using USMT to transfer user data and one part for MDT.
MDT can be downloaded here, and USMT is a part of the ADK which is a component of MDT.
Hope this helps,
The answer here wasn't very elegant (in my mind at least) but here is what I did to achieve the desired result:
Create the VM as usual (specifying the admin user during setup)
Create a new (non-admin) user and give them RDP access
Log in as the non-admin user
Install all the necessary software
Log in as the admin user, change the permissions for any files that were causing an issue to be readable by the non-admin user
Run sysprep as the admin and complete the process as detailed elsewhere
This gave me an image that I was able to provision VMs from. When creating the VM I specified the admin user to be created (but then never needed to login as the admin, as I would just login as my non-admin user that was created before). All profile settings for the non-admin user are preserved.
Hope this helps anyone else facing the same issue.
We have an intermittent issue where sometimes when users are trying to access Hyperion Retrieve for Excel, via Citrix, they are not being prompted to provide credentials upon opening the application. We can tell that the authentication process is being overlooked because the data is not able to be viewed. Once we delete the user's profile that is created on the Terminal Server, the problem is resolved once the user launches the application again via Citrix (A new windows profile is created on the TS). I am unable to pinpoint the root cause of these user's profiles becoming "corrupted". Any suggestions here?
Environment:
citrix Xenapp 6.5
Windows Server 2008 R2
Roaming Profiles option is disabled
Timezone Redirection Policy has successfully resolved this issue.
