Restore deleted files from SharePoint Online

The easiest way to restore files in SharePoint Online is obviously just to restore the deleted files using the web interface as Microsoft recommends. However, that won’t work if you need to restore 1000-plus files. Basically, the restore process will just get stuck, and you will probably die of age before anything happens. 💀 PowerShell to the rescue! 🦸‍♂️ Install the SharePoint Patterns and Practices (PnP) cmdlet Connect to the SharePoint site Notice the sites/rooms in the URL. You need to connect to an actual site on your SharePoint, not just the root of the site. In other words, you need to know from which site the files were deleted from. List all deleted items in the site “rooms” List all items deleted by a specific user Restore all files deleted by a specific user The restore process will take a while. In my case, I restored about 1000 files in about 20 minutes. Note that you will not get a restore log, but you can of course use the above command to check if files disappear from the recycle bin. If files exist on the server you will get error messages, which is fine. This just means that the deleted file already exists, or a newer file exists.

Modding Nintendo Wii U with Homebrew and Haxchi

This is an explanation of all the steps I had to go through to make a modded Wii U in November 2018. I am not sure if it still applies, but I assume that if you have the same firmware, it should work. Basically all the info here is from wiiu.hacks.guide. The documentation can also be found on Github or as an archive per 2018.11.25. The type of Wii U used here is: Wii U with firmware 5.5.3 E. WUP-101(03) 32 GB version Reset your Wii U This whole process could take a couple of hours so make sure you have the time and patience. 🕓… Start with resetting your Wii U to factory settings. Note that you will lose all data on the Wii U if you do this. Turn on your Wii U Go to “System Settings” Go to the right until you see “Delete All Content and Settings”. Press the icon, click next, and “Delete everything”. After the formatting is complete the Wii U will shut down. Turn it back on and go through the whole “first-time-setup”. While you are at it, it is a good idea to logon with a Nintendo account, because we will need to download a game from the Wii U Store later on. You should connect to the WiFi, but try not to update the console if you are asked. Prepare the SD card and download files This information is from https://wiiu.hacks.guide/get-started Find a large SD card of at least 8 GB. Format the SD card as FAT32 and make sure it is in MBR (Master Boot Record) format. If the SD card is large, say 128 GB Windows will not format it as FAT32, but you can use the “Fat 32 Format” software tool to format it. Download the following files: […]
