Reorder Firefox containers
When Firefox introduced the ability to sync containers, the order was different on every PC. To change the order, all you need to do is reorder the containers.json file located in the Users -> Roaming -> Mozilla -> Firefox -> Profiles -> (Look for the directory containing your containers.json)
C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\{find-directory-with-file)\containers.json

Eliminate multiple Nuget sources password prompt
When you have multiple Nuget sources and when you open a Visual Studio project, you might get prompted for which account to login to Nuget for package restore.
I find this annoying, so I configure Nuget to store the hashed token in the global Nuget.config.
This command adds the package source credential elements to the nuget.config file:
- nuget.exe sources update -Name “{package-feed-1}” -UserName “{email-address-1}” -Password “{devops-token-1}”
- nuget.exe sources update -Name “{package-feed-2}” -UserName “{email-address-2}” -Password “{devops-token-2}”
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<packageSources>
<add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
<add key="Microsoft Visual Studio Offline Packages" value="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\NuGetPackages\" />
<add key="{package-source-1}" value="https://{devops-url-1}/_packaging/{package-source-1}/nuget/v3/index.json" />
<add key="{package-source-2}" value="https://{devops-url-2}/_packaging/{package-source-2}/nuget/v3/index.json" />

<{package-source-2}>

Nuget Package sources order
When I have multiple Nuget sources, the order of the sources is how Nuget queries. I prefer to control the order.
- Close Visual Studio and open the global Nuget config file. The default location for the global Nuget.config file is located in the users AppData directory. The windows explorer shortcode is: %APPDATA%\NuGet
- Modify the order within the <packageSources> element
Remove OneDrive Context Menu in Windows 10
The OneDrive on the Context menu is annoying, and Microsoft provides now way to remove it. To remove it, you can add the context block to the registry.
The CLSID {CB3D0F55-BC2C-4C1A-85ED-23ED75B5106B} represents the shell extension that implements the OneDrive commands.

Beyond Compare Folder Filter
I’ve used Beyond Compare for years. I love the product. https://www.scootersoftware.com/
When I’m comparing folders, many times I need to exclude certain folders from the compare. Below is what I put into the Filters to exclude build folders
-*.suo;-*.dbmdl;-*.user;-bin\;-obj\;-TestResults\;-debug\;-release\;-.vs\
Angular ng update to specific version
If you want to update to a specific version that is not the latest version, the example below accomplishes that request:
ng update @angular/[email protected] @angular/[email protected] [email protected] [email protected] –force –all
(those are double dashes before force and all)
Git – remove local commits
When I accidentally merge my branch into develop, I forget the command to remove (reset) any local commits.
git reset --hard origin/<branch_name>
