Here’s how to replace a self-signed Exchange certificate in the Exchange Shell.

First get the list with details:

Get-ExchangeCertificate | fl

You’ll see all of the certs, with expiration dates (“NotAfter”) and thumbprints. For each one that you need to replace, do this:

Get-ExchangeCertificate -thumbprint <thumbprintcontents> | New-ExchangeCertificate

Then say Yes.

It’s not very much documented, but if you have a lot of WordPerfect files, try renaming their extensions to .DOC. Word will load them, unless they are very old files from WordPerfect for DOS.

If you have a huge tree of WPD files, use a batch file like this:

For /R "X:\TOP_OF_TREE" %%G in (.) Do (
 Pushd %%G
 Echo now in %%G
 ren *.wpd *.doc
 Popd )
Echo "Done!"

Excellent documentation here:
