Kankun / Amcrest Smartplug SSH Credentials

Use these default credentials to SSH into your new smartplug: 
default user: root
default password: p9z34c  (or sometimes it is 'admin' without quotes).
Don't forget to change root users' password once you have logged in.

It is a great little smartplug with endless possible uses. I have used it in the past to automatically turn on / off basking lights for my turtles. I now use it to time crock-pot for yogurt making. Be aware that there is a maximum load limit, read label/documents carefully. You do NOT want to overload this plug, you have been warned!

Recovery: Your PC/Device needs to be repaired

If you see this message when you boot your Windows 10, there is something you can do to fix. Read below. "Recovery Your PC/Device needs to be repaired Error code: 0xc0000225" All it is saying is that system startup boot information is somehow messed up. But it is an easy fix.

At prompt, change current directory to: cd c:\ Then run these commands one by one to repair your boot sequence: bootrec /fixboot bootrec /fixmbr bootrec /rebuildbcd During these steps it may ask you if a particular Windows partition is the right one to boot into, choose yes if it is. Remove your recovery media, and reboot your computer. It should boot fine.

Using XPerf

XPerf comes with Windows SDK. You can get it from MSFT website. During installation there is an option to install just the performance tools should you want only perf tools and not the whole SDK. To collect a trace from administrator command line: Begin your workload. xperf -on base+cswitch+power -stackwalk Profile -f c:\kernel.etl  Let the workload execute for a while. xperf -stop  If you have previously created c:\merged.etl, delete it. xperf -merge c:\kernel.etl c:\merged.etl  Now, before you can view your trace in UI, setup your symbol path: set _NT_SYMBOL_PATH=<path to PDB files>  You should now be all set to launch the viewer: xperf c:\merged.etl (this launches the viewer)  On the UI, there are several different type of graphs for various measurements. From inside the Graph menu, you can enable these views: CPU Usage by Process. CPU Sampling by CPU. Stack Counts by type. Happy XPerf-ing!
