Howto do some things in Windows
Windows: Update builtin openssh to the latest version
Hi,
when you have install openssh by
PS D:\> Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name OpenSSH.Client~~~~0.0.1.0
then the installed version will never get updates.
Some older version (8.x.x) might have scp performance issues and therefore an update makes sence :-).

Windows: Invoke-RestMethod =>The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.
Hi,
Invoke-RestMethod or Invoke-WebRequest uses by default TLS 1.0. This protocal is outdated and would be not accepted by the most Webservers anymore.
Usually this results in the following error message:
The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.
Windows Terminal Server: Microsoft Edge does not open when the same user has edge already opened
Hi,
Edge and Chrom can only be opened one time for a user. If a user has multiple sessions opened on a Windows Terminal Server with the same credenitals, edge can only start once time because the profile (UserDataDir) can only used by one instance. Otherwise the profile is getting corrupt.
A workaround is to assign each session a seperate UserDataDir. This has one disadvantage: Bookmarks and so on depends on the sessionname.
To start edge in multiple RDP session I used the following command line parameter. This sets the DataDir to the sessionname.
edge --user-data-dir=C:\Users\%UserName%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\Profile\%SESSIONNAME%
Another option is the %CLIENTNAME% variable. CLIENTNAME contains the Computername of the machine from which you establish the RDP session.
