For security purposes, it may be beneficial to restrict Active Directory account logins to regular working hours. 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.

LLMs' knowledge cutoff date is a significant issue, often resulting in outdated responses. Some frontier models can browse the web, but they frequently skip this ability because they think they can handle things on their own. Bringing in an MCP server that can search the web helps the AI stay updated and assist it when struggling with a problem. Tavily is a research search engine designed to summarize online content for AI models. In this post, I will guide you through installing the Tavily MCP server on Windows. Installing on a Mac follows a similar process.

Playwright is an open-source framework by Microsoft for automating web browsers to perform end-to-end testing, scraping, and UI interactions across Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit. The Playwright MCP server lets AI agents like GitHub Copilot control a web browser using Playwright’s automation capabilities. Microsoft introduced support for MCP in Visual Studio Code 1.99 (March 2025), enabling tools like the Copilot Agent to connect with external services. In this post, I explain how to install the Microsoft Playwright MCP server in VS Code for the GitHub Copilot Agent.

In March 2025, the release of VS Code version 1.99 introduced support for Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP) in GitHub Copilot's Agent Mode. This open standard is now backed by leading AI companies such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and OpenAI. MCP provides a standardized framework that allows AI models to interact with external tools and data sources. In this post, I will guide you on how to install, start, stop, activate, and deactivate MCP servers. You will also learn to configure settings in mcp.json and settings.json, as well as import MCP servers from Claude Desktop, Cline, and Roo Code.

In Visual Studio Code release 1.99, Microsoft introduced GitHub Copilot’s Agent mode, a feature that closely resembles functionalities previously offered by Cursor, Cline, and Roo Code. Agent mode lets Copilot examine the codebase, find relevant files, make edits, and autonomously run and debug code. In this post, I’ll compare Agent mode with Ask and Edit mode and outline how Agent mode facilitates vibe coding—the automation of writing code.

The AI tools for the Command Line Interface (CLI) we discussed on 4sysops connect the terminal to AI models. For example, the Warp terminal includes AI tools designed to help admins working on a CLI. The Windows CLI MCP Server does the opposite. If you missed it, the Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a new open standard for AI agent communication with software services created by Anthropic and backed by OpenAI, Amazon, and Microsoft. With MCP, your primary interface is the chatbot, and for the Windows CLI MCP Server, shell access is an additional tool the AI can utilize. The Windows CLI MCP Server supports PowerShell, CMD, Git Bash shells, and remote SSH.

The GPT-4o Search model offers search engine functionality similar to ChatGPT Search or Perplexity when accessed via the OpenAI API. With the free OpenAI Python Library, you can enhance your terminal AI by adding online search features, overcoming the limitations of LLM cutoff dates, and eliminating the frustration of outdated instructions. This post will guide you on installing the OpenAI Python library and using it conveniently in Windows PowerShell, Warp, or any other terminal.

In environments with multiple VMs running the same Windows version, powering down the Hyper-V VMs during a maintenance window is usually the most efficient way to update them offline. This involves mounting the virtual disk and installing updates through PowerShell. This approach also benefits VMs that have been powered off for an extended period. Instead of starting them in an outdated and potentially vulnerable state, you can apply critical security updates in advance.

In this guide, I’ll walk through installing ShellGPT (shell_gpt) – a command-line AI assistant – on PowerShell using a local Ollama LLM. This approach lets you use AI in your terminal without relying on cloud APIs, which is great for privacy. This review highlights the use of ShellGPT on Windows through PowerShell. If you are using Mac or Linux, check out our earlier review of ShellGPT.

Zach Lloyd, a former Principal Engineer at Google, introduces new features at warp speed to the best terminal app in the galaxy, with the latest Warp release introducing cutting-edge AI technologies from The Next Generation. The standout addition is the Dispatch mode, which I prefer to call reasoning mode, enabling administrators to plan complex automation tasks with AI assistance. Prompt Suggestions might better be described as big brother or creepy mode since the AI continually observes your actions and intervenes when it believes you need assistance. Additionally, AI memory functions similarly to the personalization feature in ChatGPT, allowing you to save preferences as Knowledge across sessions.

Je suis tombé sur une vidéo de la chaine IT-Connect qui traite du déploiement de Windows 11 afin de connaître le pourcentage de machines éligibles et compatibles avec l'OS (TPM, génération de  processeur, etc.).

Et dans cette vidéo il fait remonter le résultat d'un script d'ouverture de session dans les attributs AD des comptes ordinateurs.

Je trouve ça très malin, j'imagine des cas d'utilisation pour avoir de la remontée d'information quand on ne dispose pas d'une gestion centralisée (MEMCM, inventaire, etc).
