A small, sanitized PowerShell toolkit demonstrating practical automation and diagnostics for Windows endpoints.

The scripts in this repository reflect real-world system administration tasks such as health checks, deployment validation, and troubleshooting.
All examples are intentionally generic and contain no organization-specific infrastructure details. PowerShell utilities focused on endpoint diagnostics, troubleshooting, and deployment readiness.

• Demonstrate a troubleshooting and automation mindset
• Show clear, reusable PowerShell structure
• Provide examples useful for Windows endpoint environments
• Keep all examples safe for public sharing
• Avoid organization-specific domains, server paths, or internal identifiers

Scripts in the examples folder are intentionally sanitized so they can be safely shared publicly.

Collects a quick health snapshot from a Windows endpoint, including:

• Operating system information
• Disk status
• Service health
• Basic system diagnostics

Checks whether a system is ready for software deployment by validating:

• Disk space
• Operating system version
• Required services
• Basic environment readiness

Gathers troubleshooting information useful for diagnosing endpoint problems.

Examples of collected information may include:

• system configuration
• running services
• event log summaries
• environment details

Scans Windows user profile registry entries and identifies profiles that may be orphaned or in a failed state.

This script inspects the following registry location:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

and reports profiles with suspicious state values.

A typical endpoint troubleshooting workflow might look like:

1. Run Scan-EndpointHealth.ps1 to capture a quick system overview
2. Run Test-DeploymentReadiness.ps1 before pushing software updates
3. Use Collect-SystemDiagnostics.ps1 for deeper troubleshooting
4. Use Audit-OrphanedUserProfiles.ps1 to detect profile corruption or orphaned accounts
