Re: How to enable SMB1 on Windows 10

Hit by this issue again, after a recent update to Windows 10, which I think disabled SMB1 silently.

Look, I know SMB1 is dated and has security issues and all, but we all have old equipment that we need to connect to and don't always have the means or resources to replacement them.

Quick reminder to self on how to enable SMB1:

  • Launch PowerShell in Administrator mode
  • Run "Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName smb1protocol"
  • Will be prompted to restarts Windows (sucks, I know..)

Update: Line adapter for Ozito Blade Trimmer

Update (Dec 2021): If you access to a 3D printer, I would now recommend this solution , which makes it super easy to replace the trimmer line. I have been using it for a few months now with zero issue.

3D Printer Filament Joiner

I have been looking at various ways of joining 3D printing filaments. One method involves running one end of a filament through a short PTFE tubing, melting it with a lighter or candle, retracting it back into the tubing and immediately plunging the filament to be fused into the tubing: One problem with this method is that you can't really control the temperature at which you melt the filament, so you frequently end up with a brittle joint that breaks upon the slightest bend. Aliexpress even sells a contraption that works along the same line. As it uses a lighter or candle as well, it suffers from the same weakness. I am not even sure why you need a special contraption when a short PTFE tubing will work just as well. Another method involves using shrink tubing/aluminium foil, and a heat gun: But a heat gun is rather expensive, so I wanted to explore other alternatives. The candle + PTFE tubing method actually works quite well when you happen to melt it at the rig
