insane ways to use copyparty
wireless keyboard
problem: you wanna control mpv or whatever software from the couch but you don't have a wireless keyboard
"solution": load some custom javascript which renders a virtual keyboard on the upload UI and each keystroke is actually an upload which gets picked up by a dummy metadata parser which forwards the keystrokes into xdotool
no joke, this actually exists and it wasn't even my idea or handiwork (thx steen)
appxsvc tarpit
problem: svchost.exe
is using 100% of a cpu core, and upon further inspection (procmon
) it is wsappx
desperately trying to install something, repeatedly reading a file named AppxManifest.xml
and messing with an sqlite3 database
"solution": create a virtual filesystem which is intentionally slow and trick windows into reading it from there instead
- create a file called
AppxManifest.xml
and put something dumb in it - serve the file from a copyparty instance with
--rsp-slp=1
so every request will hang for 1 sec net use m: http://127.0.0.1:3993/
(mount copyparty using the windows-native webdav client)mklink /d c:\windows\systemapps\microsoftwindows.client.cbs_cw5n1h2txyewy\AppxManifest.xml m:\AppxManifest.xml
