with it a raft of Windows 10 specific repair options to the application.

But
there's more than just Windows 10-specific fixes. There are also
specific tabs detailing fixes for File Explorer, Internet and
Connectivity, and System Tools, along a links to specific entries in the
built-in Windows troubleshooter for issues such as:

Printer

While power users probably know all these fixes by heart, FixWin for Windows 10 (there's a separate version for Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 7/Windows Vista
users) is an ideal tool for those who aren't Windows experts or who
don't have the time to trawl the forums for an answer. I've tested the
tool on some systems that experienced issues after making the jump to
Windows 10 and it worked well, although depending on the problems you
are having, your mileage may vary.
Two vulnerabilities discovered and patched over the summer expose Jenkins servers to mass exploitation. Thousands, if not more, Jenkins servers are vulnerable to data theft, takeover, and cryptocurrency mining attacks. This is because hackers can exploit two vulnerabilities to gain admin rights or log in using invalid credentials on these servers. Both vulnerabilities were discovered by security researchers from CyberArk , were privately reported to the Jenkins team, and received fixes over the summer. But despite patches for both issues, there are still thousands of Jenkins servers available online Jenkins is a web application for continuous integration built in Java that allows development teams to run automated tests and commands on code repositories based on test results, and even automate the process of deploying new code to production servers.

Microsoft's Roslyn 'compiler as a service' inches forward Summary: Microsoft is now compiling internally its daily Visual Studio builds using its 'Roslyn' compiler technology. Could a new preview and/or final release be happening soon?Lets wait and see. Microsoft is internally dogfooding its "Roslyn" compiler as a service technology, and is compiling internal daily builds of Visual Studio using "Roslyn." That update, courtesy of a Microsoft December 16 blog post , is the first Microsoft has shared about its Roslyn technology in more than a year. Microsoft's Roslyn effort is about re-architecting the C# and VB compilers to support "compiler as a service" (CaaS) scenarios. Currently, a compiler is a black box; with Roslyn, Microsoft is working on opening it up so that all of the information processed via a compiler is available in application programming interface (API) form. Microsoft's most recent Roslyn desc...
Biometric smartphones to become mainstream in 2014, Ericsson says Summary: Following the release of the fingerprint sensor-enabled iPhone 5s, more smartphone makers could soon jump on the bandwagon, if Ericsson's predictions prove true. By the end of 2014, a wealth of new smartphones could come with biometric technology, such as fingerprint recognition hardware. In September, Apple released the iPhone 5s, which included a fingerprint reader , in the hope of bolstering security and improving usability. And other mobile makers, keen to jump on the biometric bandwagon, could soon embed the technology in their own devices. According to new research by mobile network maker Ericsson, which polled 100,000 people over 40 countries, about 74 percent of respondents said they believe biometric smartphones "will become mainstream" during 2014. More than half at 52 percent want to use their fingerprints instead of a complex alphanumeric combination of letters...
