we are trying to create a fine grained password policy in ADAC and the "NEW" button is greyed out where we usually click to create a new policy. We are not sure why that happened as it has worked before. We have our DC's all set to the highest function level in both domain and forest to 2016. We have all DC's on server 2016.
We tried to do it in PowerShell with the command:
New-ADFineGrainedPasswordPolicy -name "PASSTEST" -Precedence 1 -MinPasswordLength 15
This is the output we are getting from PowerShell:
We are stuck as we are not sure what happened or how to resolve this. We would like to make fine grain password policy work again.

I am trying to install LOB UWP application
I used:
Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online -PackagePath "APPX_PATH"
-DependencyPackagePath "DEPENDENCIES"-SkipLicense
It worked for the first time, i even asked one of my colleagues to log in and the app was there.
But, after that, i tried to reinstall it with the same command. But the command refused to execute, it's just blinking and loading.
I tried other commands to get the packages or remove the package but all have the same behavior.
What could be a valid reason for that?
Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -Online | Select PackageName
Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage
-PackageName "PackageName" -Online -AllUsers
EDIT#1:I am getting the following error after waiting for long time and pressing PgDn or End buttons on keyboard.
Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage : DismInitialize failed. Error code = 0x80004005

Today I found that the MicrosoftTeams powershell command Get-TeamFunSettings failed to run when the property GiphyContentRating value is "Allow all content".
Error info:
Get-TeamFunSettings : Error converting value "unknownFutureValue" to
type
'System.Nullable`1[Microsoft.TeamsCmdlets.PowerShell.Custom.Model.GiphyRatingType]'.
Path 'funSettings.giphyContentRating', line 1, position 844. At line:1

We are actively investigating this issue and a fix is expected shortly. Note this commend is in beta so instability is not unexpected.
Maybe it's just very new but according to the documentation of the command "Allow all content" is not an option. (I do think it should be one, though)

I'm trying to use PowerShell to add a trigger to an existing scheduled task.
I'm using Windows 10 & PowerShell 5
When I run:
Get-Scheduled-Job -Name TASK_NAME
I receive the error:
>Get-ScheduledJob : A scheduled job definition with Name sanityInstaller could not be found.
At line:1 char:1
+ Get-ScheduledJob sanityInstaller
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (:) [Get-ScheduledJob], RuntimeException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ScheduledJobDefinitionNotFoundByName,Microsoft.PowerShell.ScheduledJob.GetScheduledJobCommand
It seems that even when I run the same command with no parameter it's expected to return all jobs but it returns an empty result.
In the Task Scheduler there's no such folder as /Microsoft/Windows/PowerShell/ScheduledJobs and even after I created it and a new task inside it doesn't return it.
What am I missing here ?
Get-ScheduledJob gets only scheduled jobs that are created by the
current user using the Register-ScheduledJob cmdlet.
Source.
You are looking for the Get-ScheduledTask cmdlet.
I am playing around powershell the idea is simple:
I want to verify if certain TCP port is open.
Now, I can run this as PowerShell script or I can run it in ISE.
Now, in ISE everything is fine, the script runs as supposed to.
When I run it as PowerShell Script however, I am getting error message:
Method invocation failed because [System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient] does not contain a method named 'ReceiveTimeout'.
At P:\checkTCP80.ps1:7 char:1
+ $tcpClient.ReceiveTimeout(5)
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (:) [], RuntimeException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : MethodNotFound
Code:
$servery = gc .\servers.txt
foreach ($server in $servery)
{
$tcpClient = New-Object System.Net.Sockets.TCPClient
$tcpClient.ReceiveTimeout(5)
$tcpClient.Connect($server,80)
Write-Host ($server, $tcpClient.Connected)
}
I have 2 questions:
How come, that the output parameter works just fine from ISE but does not work when this is launched as a script?
How to fix it?
According to the MS documentation on this class ReceiveTimeout is a property and not a method.
Try changing $tcpClient.ReceiveTimeout(5) to $tcpClient.ReceiveTimeout = 5
Having seen examples of BITS being used to transfer files from http addresses as well as regular windows file shares, I thought I'd test pulling and pushing to/from ftp. I used the below powershell commands:
Start-BitsTransfer `
-Source ftp://username:password#ftp.somewhere.com/file.zip `
-Destination c:\temp\file.zip
Start-BitsTransfer `
-Source c:\temp\file2.zip `
-Destination ftp://username:password#ftp.somewhere.com/file2.zip
In both cases I got the error:
Start-BitsTransfer : Cannot find drive. A drive with the name 'ftp' does not exist.
At c:\temp\bits2ftp.ps1:3 char:1
+ Start-BitsTransfer `
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (ftp:String) [Start-BitsTransfer], ParentContainsErrorRecordException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : DriveNotFound,Microsoft.BackgroundIntelligentTransfer.Management.NewBitsTransferCommand
As such, I assume this isn't possible... however thought I'd post on here in case there is a way to do this (e.g. does it work on certain ftp servers)?
Also posting on here since I've seen no mention of anyone attempting this before, so thought I'd provide a Google hit for the next person to wonder.
So far as I can tell, FTP is not currently supported.
