With the release of Windows 10, Microsoft has changed the way, this operating system logs being created and then how to view them. Till now, we have been viewing Windows Logs of previous versions operating system in Windowsupdates.log file. However, this file is still present in Windows 10, but when you open it, it'll not show you logs, rather you'll find following information in it:
[crayon-55d5bea9c7c03064477282/]So, while Microsoft has done so many changes in Windows 10, they totally transformed the way, we may peak into Windows Update logs. So, in order to view WindowsUpdate.log in Windows 10, there are two ways:
For Windows 10, using PowerShell is the best way to view Windows Logs, but is less reliable. Hence, we have prioritized the solutions below:
Using this method, you can directly decode Winodws Update .etl files in human readable form for getting the windows update information during various troubleshootings. So, here's the steps to do it:
Where %systemdrive% is your operating system drive e.g. C:\. If WULogs folder is not available, create one.
Where <Winodw Update Logs> syntax would be replaced by Windows Update .etl files name. You can list all files name in one command like below:
[crayon-55d5bea9c7c43650821415/]This would generate a combined WinodwsUpdate.log file for you.
Open your desktop, you'll find a new file named WindowsUpdate.log.
Also on Trouble Fixers
Now, the file WindowsUpdate.log generated using command Get-WindowsUpdate.log is a static file and we need to get it into terms of auto-updating, so that you don't have to update the whole procedure of running the PowerShell again and again. To accomplish that, you can create a script using PowerShell which shall auto-update the log file with recent activities, so that you may could troubleshoot things in real-time if doing any.
For creating a script, commands in PowerShell could be something similar as below:
[crayon-55d5bea9c7c5c180886039/]For more details visit, Get-WindowsUpdateLog method, which shall help you in merging Windows udpate .etl files into a sinlge WindowsUpdate.log file.

Windows 10 might be the first version of Windows which shall breakthrough how you may use your computer or How Microsoft have the power now to control things inside your computer. While Microsoft is pushing hard Windows 10 upgrade to users worldwide for free, just because this operating system would be pitched later on as a service rather than a stand-alone software product. But even "Free" has a "Fee" word hidden inside it. So, my dear friend, nothing is "Free" rather Microsoft in Windows 10 changed their End User License Agreement (EULA) which allows Microsoft to remotely disable or delete Pirated Games and Pirated Software's form your computer.
Do you know why Microsoft don't allow stopping automatic updates in Windows 10? It's just because that could hamper the way Windows 10 is designed. Now Windows 10 has the power of checking automatically the version of your software's and download updates for them or even making configuration changes without requiring any user intervention. And these configuration changes can include preventing you from accessing some services, playing counterfeit games and even using unauthorized hardware peripheral devices.
Now such reasons makes sense when Microsoft offered Windows 10 as a upgrade to users who're already using pirated copies of Windows 7 or Windows 8. Those people can upgrade their computer to Windows 10 too, the only difference is that the OS shall keep reminding the users that it's not a genuine copy. However there won't be any difference in functionality of operating system.
While Microsoft has not made it clear yet, how they're going to determine if you're running a pirated software or game? Although another worth noting point is, if Microsoft shall publicly tell users how they're going to determine, probably users shall find a crack to stop Microsoft from doing any intervention in their computers. However it won't be difficult for Microsoft to check if you're accessing services of Steam through illegal ways or probably using a pirated anti-virus copy. Might be many keygens would see their end in making changes in System files of operating system to crack the software's.
Also Microsoft would monitor what type of Hardware you're using. Although it's difficult to say, How that would benefit Microsoft in anyway, but for one thing i am sure that this game is going to be interesting and there's a lot more to come and discover in Windows 10. Another notable point is when Microsoft has started, will Apple join the league by updating the EULA with similar terms, however Apple has no issues currently in running any pirated software on it's desktop platform i.e. OS X.
Although Windows 10 is expanding across various types of devices like phones, tablets, notebooks, desktops, game consoles, wearables and a lot more types, hence even if you've upgraded already to Windows 10 and has your software's and games installed, there is yet a long time before Microsoft would start taking any action. Right now, Microsoft is more focused in fixing comparability issues of Windows 10 across the different types of hardware's.
As per by belief, until Microsoft starts pitching Windows 10 services to users, there is no point to worry about using any kind of Software or Games. We will update, if we hear something from Microsoft regarding deletion or disabling of Pirated Software's or Games.Also on Trouble Fixers:
Windows 10 Will Automatically Disable Pirated Games or Softwares is a post first appeared on Trouble Fixers.
Do you know that digi-crims can scan the whole population even to a country level to find their targets. This is a claim made by security research firm "Salt Agency". They recently figured out, how hackers are exploiting an overlooked feature of Facebook by gathering personal data from them and the user shall never knew about it.
If you have ever reviewed your Facebook Privacy Settings at this link: http://ift.tt/1J3sr4f, you'll find settings of "Who can look me up?" or "Who can look up using the phone number you provided?" which is by default set to "Everyone".
Now, making small changes in these settings can make a big difference in protecting your privacy. Wondering how hackers take advantage of these overlooked settings?
Salt Agency showed, how with a simple trick, they were able to link thousands of phone numbers with Facebook accounts.
This is a security flaw in Facebook which led hackers to gather Personally Identifiable Information (PII) of millions of Facebook users with First and Last names, locations, images and many more just using a phone number.
That Security agency used a script to generate random phone numbers by combining every possible parameter used in US, Canada and Britain.
Now, When they have millions of phone numbers of users, they link those phone number via Facebook's Application Programming Interface (API) which is freely available via developers.facebook.com and anyone can make one API by registering themselves as a developer. Now, they linked those phone numbers with Facebook API to gather Facebook's user ID of the associated user.
Now, once they have the users' ID, they can extract more information about them using API like:
Here's a quote by them for this security flaw:
"With this security loophole, a person with the right knowledge can harvest the non-private details of the users who allow public access to their phone numbers, enabling the harvester to then use or sell the user details for purposes that the user may not be happy with."
Such security flaw has led Hackers to steal information of till now 1.5 millions users of Facebook. Even the security agency alerted Facebook about the issue and requested them to make changes in API by turning-ON pre-encryption.
Yet, Facebook has not taken any action to fix the flaw, leaving millions of users identity data unsecured to the hackers. And Facebook is not bothered to fix the flaw as they don't think that anyone could exploit or abuse their vulnerability.
Also on Trouble Fixers:
However, Facebook Security Team does gave a statement, that they continuously monitor and mitigate if someone may try to abuse the API. They also said, that they have strict parameters how a developer could use their API's and limit the usage as soon as if someone goes against the defined rules or parameters.
Till the time, Facebook make some changes to prevent such abuse, you can do your part to stop this abuse immediately. Here are few steps to protect your Privacy:
If you think how can a hacker benefit from such data, just think the he could sell that personally identifiable information (PII) database to any organization which is into illegal activities, just for earning good money and because of that user life could be in danger without any knowledge to them.
