This repository contains various PowerShell scripts that have been developed over the time at my internships and jobs.

Problem: How to update, remotely, GitLab Runners without having access to Windows Server?

Solution: The goal is to install, register and setup GitLab Runner on Windows VM in a fashion which allows them to be updated automatically, e.g. through a scheduled pipeline. This has been successfully tested in production and was (at least initially) aimed for large B2B enterprise applications - those which cannot be put inside K8S or anything like that.

These days, a better approach would be to run RPA software on target machine and code it visually...

Inspired & based on a variety of existing source code (see list below), I have developed GUI-based (WinForms) application that can simplify deleting user profiles on Windows OS - remotely.

• Capability of creating and reading ini files (to the folder where ps1 is executed)
• Deleting only those user profiles which have been selected by the admin
• Deleting all (remote) profiles
• While internal PowerShell console-based logging as well as WinForms GUI is in English, a GUI-based logging in the textbox on the right is in German

Initial situation: We have old nexus 2 server, with you having an access to the filesystem, which hosts among others maven artefacts. The goal is migrate them to an empty nexus 3 installation, e.g. via API. Moreover, when doing that, repositories (proxy & hosted) have to be extracted from nexus 2 and re-created on nexus 3.
