Microsoft takes unreliability to reliable levels, ffs... -

It's a feature, not a bug: Windows Hello face unlock no longer works in the dark by Usama Jawad Windows Hello is a security mechanism offered by Microsoft in compatible Windows PCs that allows customers to use biometric authentication mechanisms such as facial or iris recognition, fingerprint, or a PIN to access their accounts. Although it's a great feature when it works correctly, that is not always the case. Now, Microsoft has changed the way this feature works, and people aren't exactly pleased. As spotted by Windows Central, Windows Hello hasn't been working as people would expect since at least April's Patch Tuesday update. Since then, the mechanism requires both an infrared (IR) sensor and a color webcam to function correctly. Previously, Windows Hello relied on IR sensors to create a 3D facial map, just like the iPhone. IR sensors work quite well in low-light environments, but Microsoft does not allow customers to rely on them anymore due to a patch for a security vulnerability. It is important to note that most webcams don't illuminate the environment on their own and rely on external light. This essentially means that Windows Hello simply doesn't work in low-light environments for many users. In our own testing, Windows Hello seems to be working in low warm light, shown below: However, it now fails to work in an even dimmer environment, such as that with red light: That said, it seems that Microsoft has not implemented the change perfectly. Users have reported that if they disable their webcam through Device Manager, Windows Hello falls back to using IR sensors only and continues to function the way it used to. While that may act as a workaround for users right now, it'll be interesting to see if Microsoft patches this loophole down the line, too; it certainly wouldn't be surprising now that it's more widely known.

I know Windows DHCP and DNS servers get teased a lot, but those services were at least created at a time when MS cared more than they do now, and they work mostly as expected. I actually use both in a multisite professional setting, not really because I love them, but because we use Active Directory and those services go hand-in-hand with it. A few times when I have needed to configure some more advanced features, I was worried Windows might not support them, but so far it has not let me down. I can only image the horror a Windows 11 era DHCP server would be, probably fewer options than the basic service on a Netgear router. -

Question
boynamedfoo
In case the topic title is not clear, I would like to have all the HTML documents IIS serves checked for PHP content and parsed if any is present.
I'm aware that this can be done using Apache by editing the htaccess file, but can it be done with IIS? (I'm using version 5.5 - XP Professional.) I would normally use Apache as I do prefer it, but I'm working on a machine that has IIS, MySQL, and PHP all set up - and I'm only developing locally at the moment.
Thanks for any help as always people.
