Hey nerds, can someone recommend a few resources on learning ins/outs of windows? I'm trying to slug through 'windows internals' book and this miiiight be too much. I just want to be a better user, while windows for dummies is too surface level. Halp. #appsec #infosec #windows
@bitchpeas My quick answer is that I think your ask is too broad. I would need to know your objective(s). One person might want to know how to do basic computer operations, like you can find in Windows for Dummies. Another person might want to dive deeper, like customizing settings in Microsoft Defender. Someone else might want to know how to do registry edits, or interpret Event Viewer logs, or understand the feature differences between the Home and Enterprise editions.

" customizing settings in Microsoft Defender."

Ooo do this one. I find MS documentation tough to dig through

@KBTechEnt
The GUI is certainly not user friendly.
