PiShrink Hub

This is a portable VirtualBox build that is prepackaged with an instruction PDF for you to be able to shrink your images if you need to for archival purposes. This includes a premade however highly modified osboxes.org linux image. Some users have reported that due to Windows Creator updates the associated portable VB container fails to load the VM. If that is the case then rather than have it portable you will need to perform a full install of VB from the official website and drop the VM files themselves into the required path. This will give the same experience however the initial goal had been for a portable package. Download PiShrink Hub

Enabling Web Services Discovery (WSD) AKA – Samba Fix

Due to security concerns Samba v1 has been normally disabled on the various Windows 10 builds be they Home, Pro, or Enterprise. Rather than re-enabling Samba v1 and running the risk of adding back in serious vulnerabilities such as WannaCry, etc it is recommended to instead enable a feature that has been available since Windows Vista called Web Services Discovery AKA WSD so that your various devices can be easily seen in Network Neighborhood. Below is a link to a great article on this that may provide a deeper understanding. It is through this resource that we were able to create a way to use the protocol and code on a standard Linux and Windows networking relationship even though the original intent was for Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices: How to kill off SMB1, NetBIOS, WINS and *still* have Windows' Network Neighborhood How to detect, enable and disable SMBv1, SMBv2, and SMBv3 in Windows and Windows Server

Click the icon above to download the instructions and the files required to enable WSD on your Windows machine, disable Samba v1 on your Linux build, and enable WSD via a python script to run as a service at boot.
