I use WDS on a standalone server to set up new PCs and to reimage PCs when they have ended up mangled beyond repair. With a good number of PCs in my own house it is useful to reimage them ocasionally when swapping or upgrading hardware. Most of this process is now automated by an unattend.xml file but one step the unattended process doesn’t seem to support is renaming PCs back to their original name.

0Batch convert old MS Office documents
I’ve been trying to sort out an enormous (100+GB) or teaching resources that I’ve built-up over the years. After the obvious steps (deleting empty, temp and duplicated files) and sorting the big files (e.g. videos, application installers) I was left with a large number of office documents. I am slowly working through these, but many of them are 2003 or even older format documents — some as old as Word 6! Every time I open one of these files I am prompted with various security warnings. Whist these can be turned off (see below) it is more secure to leave them on, and I wanted to convert all the files to office 2007 (docx, xlsx etc) formats. Batch conversion was definitely the way to go.
