            ARF, we don’t have the mocrosfot store but a custom one with curated apps. (There is like 50 apps in it and nearly all of them are business related)

              If you can install any apps directly then you can get the installer for this from it’s Github repository, but judging by how locked down your system is, maybe just make a request to IT for it instead, it’s an open source utility app made by Microsoft themselves, so shouldn’t be an issue.

                Yeah, will stick to note pad, the hurdle isn’t worth it. Thanks for the suggestions though. They are paranoiac, they customize open sources applications. For exemple we have a custom version of notepad++ in the app market which included domes plugin by defaults but in which the removed capacities to execute things and to follow links.

        Thanks but this won’t pass the firewall. If it is not already installed or in the “application store” we can’t download it. Even PDF files are scanned and sometime restricted.

          You can email inside a password protected zip file renamed to myfile.mp4 or ideally some obscure file format it won’t know.

          Other than that, you could ask supervisor but I’ve dealt with business dweebs enough not to bother asking. I’d just bring some old laptop with smb filesharing plus a dhcp server running from the ethernet port and hook that ditectly into the work pc then copy the file.

          Me I just clone tge corpoOS image, install promox then run shitty corpoOS in a VM and do my actual work on a VM without the bullshit.

          If anyone asks anything, I’ll tell them about my extensive gun collection.

            This don’t work anymore they scan the the file header and if they found a zip it is blocked.

            If you remove the file header it is rejected because no file header,

            if you switch a file header like jpg they remove the picture from the email and you have a web side to see it.

            The picture seem transformed too, you can’t get it change the header and unzip.

            We can’t even send a picture in a email to outside emails adresse.

            Ho violence and threat… Yeah this is know yo solve computers issues

              Burn down the building before this big brother revenge of the nerd bullshit spreads.

              But calling bs on that on tgat file header thing. They would have to even block text files. Many types of files have no headers.

              And that shitty surveillance software didn’t get a file header interpreter of every business useful file type.

              Use your imagination, there are still dozens more ways to bypass IT security and make it look like that brown nosing colleague did it.

              Just send the file as base64 chunks if you have too. Life without ditto clipboard manager should not be tolerated and neitger should big nerd brother sufferred to live.

                Lol. Depending where you arr you have differents restrictions, they consider that IT doesn’t need to send file outside. I have to ask my chief to send my excel timesheet outside. It is blocked cked if I try to send it myself.

                  I’m sorry, you seem to be living in prison. Still dozens of ways in but you’ll have to find them yourself. Or just escape the nightmare.
