I’m currently studying for several Microsoft certifications, and I come from a Linux admin background so using the command line is not something new for me.. but I just don’t get why Microsoft makes things so un-intuitive sometimes.
For example, when configuring event forwarding, there is a command you run on the collecting compter, and a command you run on the forwarding computer to configure the event forwarding.
- Command on the forwarding computer: winrm quickconfig
- Command on the event collecting computer: wecutil qc
Why couldn’t Microsoft pick one OR the other? (‘qc’ or ‘quickconfig’). I don’t care which one they would have picked… but with 600 pages of material to study it’s really a PITA to have to memorize differences like this.
And there are sooo many others just like this…
