6:25 You can use fc /B to run a binary comparison for any non-text file. Differences in files are shown as hexadecimal numbers instead of interpreting the bytes as text.

Interesting. Couple of comments. 1) Failure to receive a ping response from a website does not always mean that the site is down, as some sites may not respond to ping, by design. 2) You could have also mentioned a really handy feature of netsh, which is the TCP/IP reset.

Good day! Are all these commands type sensitive? Uppercase, lowercase, space or doesnt matter?

[@robertking7584]

Unfortunately, in most cases, none of those actually repair anything. Check does nothing but waste time. Cleanup and in rare cases rebuild the BSD system. Restore almost never works. In general a regular chkdsk /r /p does the same thing.

I've never heard tracert pronounced that way. What I hear/say is "trace route", like the UNIX/Linux equivalent traceroute.

[@netautorisationnetautorisa545]

*YES IS DOS*

[@midnitetoker420]

Agreed! I think it is the "millennial" way...Is it the "dir" command, or "directory" command...many DOS, Unix, programming languages have these acronyms that were for the most part (at least in my experience) called by their full, proper names, as opposed to their abbreviations. I think in today's fast paced society, where everything is "acronym-nized", people tend to pronounce the acronym, as opposed to the "proper" name.

[@faithlesshound5621]

@@midnitetoker420 A lot of this goes back to earlier days when operating systems like CP/M and MS-DOS had three-letter commands, so what you typed was DIR to get a directory, and later these developed subcommands like dir/p or dir/w.

[@QuantumScratcher]

It's probably so-called because of the 8.3 filename restriction on DOS. (...Outdated?)

[@midnitetoker420]

@@faithlesshound5621 You may be right, but in my circle of techies in the 80's, we all said, either "d"-"i"-"r" (saying the name of each letter), or "directory".

[@anthonylitten9504]

Thank you for the video. I have recently updated my bios and have been having tons of crashes(which I was not having before the bios update). I used some of these, and it found a lot of corrupt files and fixed them. hopefully, this solves my problems. I used your link for the Bitdefender working great so far.

[@zinsy23]

I should mention that if you notice number 6 (@9:40) detects a sector error, you should probably get another drive because sometimes, fixing it could do more damage than good and it only means you could have more bad sectors very quickly. At least backup if you care about anything on that drive.

[@tcholmes2237]

On an HDD this is sometimes true. On SSD, probably just file system corruption. when running CHKDSK I use "CHKDSK C: /r /x" which does the deepest scan and is often successful at recovering data. This can catch corruption you didn't know was there - there's some in most systems after a few months. Ideally, CHKDSK, NETCFDG -d (clears adapter drivers and tcp/ip stack), reboot, SFC, DISM and then SFC again. you can put it all in a batch script as long as you run it as admin. sometimes SFC can't finish the fix until DSIM has run, and visa-versa, so this covers all the bases.

[@Yemto]

One of my favorite commands is mklink, with it I can create shortcuts that programs and games can use. For example, if I want to move the save folder of a game to somewhere else, I can simply move the folder, then use mklink "old location" "new location", and the game will still find the files, with a normal shortcut that wouldn't work.

[@TheWilro]

Didn't know it could be used like this. Very interesting. Thanks

[@TheGreatOne16439]

Hey Joe I think you forgot to mention there is a space before the slashes in cipher /e and with /s along with ipconfig /flushdns.

[@arsenalgear3009]

I'd just add this to your list: powercfg -h off It turns hybernation off and you get a few GB of stogare that are normally reserved for the hybernation file. Useful on small SSD's

[@servusdedurantem]

u should always disable hybernation on ssd actually it should be turned off by default hybernation kills ssd slowly the problem not only space

[@arsenalgear3009]

@@servusdedurantem Wasn't dissabled for me and almost everyone I talked to. As far as the dmg to SSD's goes, this is the first time I heard that. Do you have evidence that supports that claim?

[@EpicB]

@@arsenalgear3009 SSDs typically use flash memory which has a finite amount of read/write cycles. So if the hibernation cache is an actual file that would probably shorten the life of the drive.

[@IceMetalPunk]

Your explanation of the /t parameter of taskkill reminded me of something one of my professors said in college once. He had a very dark sense of humor, and one day while discussing child processes, he said, "Computer science is the only field where you are encouraged to fork the children before you kill them. Lucky us." That wisdom has stayed with me to this day 😂

[@nosuchthing8]

[@FoodInDaHood]

Hey Thio. Just a quick heads up. The tracert command is actually short for trace route. On Cisco routers and switches, you will find that the use traceroute as the command. In Windows, this is shortened to tracert.
