Intel Graphics 5th Gen Windows 10 Driver Disabled Fix

Windows 10 will disable the Intel(R) HD Graphics 5500 or similar GPU drivers if Hypervisor Code Integrity (HVCI) is enabled. HVCI appears to be enabled as part of Hyper-V. This affects laptops from all vendors as far as I can tell.

To disable HVCI,the registry entries outlined by Microsoft do not appear to work.

Microsoft does however provide a PowerShell script which does work.

Download the script from the link above
Extract the script

How to stop Windows 10 Continuous Prompts to associate a Viewer for PDF Files

If Windows 10 keeps prompting you to associate an application to view PDF files when you double click to open them, try deleting the following registry keys and rebooting. This worked for me.

Open regedit as an administrator
Navigate to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf and delete the .pdf key
Navigate to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\FileAssociations\ProgIds and delete the REG_DWORD called _.pdf
Reboot

This reset the default to Microsoft Edge and then allowed me to change the default to Adobe Reader.

How to Set up Yubikey for AWS-Vault

Tired of using a password for aws-vault? Want to use that lovely touch pad on your Yubikey? Here is how! (Shamelessly borrowed from this comment by Frederico Araujo). Note, this is not the same as configuring your terminal to use a Yubikey setup to be used as TOTP for AWS-instead of an app!

NOTE: These steps are for use on macOS and should be similar for Linux

Remove existing credential from AWS Vault Run only if you already have it setup before:

aws-vault remove myprofile
