Running the UniFi Network Controller as a Windows Service or on Startup

The trick to all methods is to use the java.exe built into the UniFi software, NOT the Adoptium version recommended by Ubiquiti. They are confused. You don't need to install a separate software. You don't need to mess with the JAVA_HOME variable. As long as you specific the commands exactly as shown below, it should work. Tested and confirmed working on a new Windows 11 computer.

Method 1: Using a Traditional Windows Service

1. Open PowerShell as Administrator.

Resolving Issues with Restoring OneDrive Files from Image-Based Backups or Offline Drives

Restoring files from an image-based backup or offline drives of a OneDrive folder can result in files appearing corrupted or inaccessible. This issue is often due to OneDrive's Files On-Demand feature, which stores placeholder files instead of the actual data locally. Additionally, even when files are fully downloaded, they may retain reparse point attributes that can prevent the files from opening correctly.

Common Scenarios Affected

This problem can occur with image-based backup solutions or when restoring files from offline drives if the backup includes placeholders instead of the actual file data. The following software are examples of those which may be impacted.

• Acronis True Image or Cyber Protect
• Macrium Reflect
• Veeam Backup & Replication

Remove and Block Webroot Web Threat Shield Extension from Chrome and Edge

This PowerShell script is designed to remove and block Webroot's Web Threat Shield browser extension from Chrome and Edge.

Note: This script does not support Firefox. It specifically targets only Chrome and Edge.

When you disable Web Threat Shield within Webroot, the extension may remain installed in users' browsers. Additionally, even if you manually remove the extension, Webroot may attempt to reinstall it.

This script uses simple and safe registry modifications to remove and block the installation of the extension without requiring a browser or system restart. The browser remains open during the process.
