Why I cannot use Live account on some Microsoft Services

De ceva vreme ma trezeam ca anumite servicii noi adaugate de catre Microsoft care se acceseaza cu ajutorul unui cont de Live nu functioneaza. Cand doream sa ma logam cu userul si parola nu reuseam.
Acest lucru se intampla atat pe telefon cat si de pe desktop. Unele persoane spuneau ca din cauza ca account-ul este unul vechi (de peste 10 ani) unele servicii nu functioneaza. Mi s-a parut ciudata cauza si nu eram convins de aceasta problema.
Astazi am avut nevoie sa reinstalez Windows 8 pe cateva masini si dupa ce m-am inregistrat cu account-ul meu m-am trezit ca nu mai ma pot loga. Aveam o masina virtuala blocata si o tableta cu Windows 8 blocata. Si asa am ajuns sa sap, sa vad care poate sa fie problema.
Cauza se pare ca este lungimea parolei. In cazul meu aveam o parola de peste 20 de caractere. Am fost nevoit sa schimb parola la una mai scurta de 16 caractere si totul a revenit la normal.
Un singur lucru pot sa spun din pacate .... rusinica.

  1. Sa vezi ce fain e sa nu iti poti activa smartphone-ul din cauza asta (WP7, prima pornire, parola Win Live mai lunga de 16)..

Windows Docker Containers can make WIN32 API calls, use COM and ASP.NET WebForms

After the last post , I received two interesting questions related to Docker and Windows. People were interested if we do Win32 API calls from a Docker container and if there is support for COM. WIN32 Support To test calls to WIN32 API, let’s try to populate SYSTEM_INFO class. [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct SYSTEM_INFO { public uint dwOemId; public uint dwPageSize; public uint lpMinimumApplicationAddress; public uint lpMaximumApplicationAddress; public uint dwActiveProcessorMask; public uint dwNumberOfProcessors; public uint dwProcessorType; public uint dwAllocationGranularity; public uint dwProcessorLevel; public uint dwProcessorRevision; } ... [DllImport("kernel32")] static extern void GetSystemInfo(ref SYSTEM_INFO pSI); ... SYSTEM_INFO pSI = new SYSTEM_INFO(...

Navigating Cloud Strategy after Azure Central US Region Outage

 Looking back, July 19, 2024, was challenging for customers using Microsoft Azure or Windows machines. Two major outages affected customers using CrowdStrike Falcon or Microsoft Azure computation resources in the Central US. These two outages affected many people and put many businesses on pause for a few hours or even days. The overlap of these two issues was a nightmare for travellers. In addition to blue screens in the airport terminals, they could not get additional information from the airport website, airline personnel, or the support line because they were affected by the outage in the Central US region or the CrowdStrike outage.   But what happened in reality? A faulty CrowdStrike update affected Windows computers globally, from airports and healthcare to small businesses, affecting over 8.5m computers. Even if the Falson Sensor software defect was identified and a fix deployed shortly after, the recovery took longer. In parallel with CrowdStrike, Microsoft provi...
