I'm working on a desktop application that purpose is saving a backup of a Virtual Machine stored in an ESX without vCenter in local storage. I'm currently using the vSphere SDK for C# and I'm working on a WinForm. I have a box for selecting the machine and a button to make a backup of selected running Virtual Machine on my laptop. I can't find any method in the vSphere SDK to help me for backing up a running VM.
Any advice will be appreciated.

I had the same problem and i found this solution but through PowerCLI.
I made a power shell script that allowed me to export the VM as a .OVA file in a local storage.
You cannot perform the Export command when the VM is powered ON. The only way to perform a backup of a powered on VM ,is having a licence with the vCenter.
Hope it will help you.

I was working on a c# project on my computer when I accidentally removed the power cord.
When I started my computer back up I tried to load my project, but I got a error:
There is no editor available for 'c\user\documents\visualstudio 2013\projects\project_name\from1.cs
make sure the application for the file type(.cs) is installed
On the same project I have different forms and those still work, only from1 is not working. The data set only contains 0's.
What can I do to fix this?
Either something got corrupted in your Visual Studio installation, or (more likely) the file you were working on before your computer was shut down (which I assume was from1.cs).
Are you able to open from1.cs and from1.Designer.cs in something like Notepad? You may want to look for NULL terminators in your file as suggested by this answer on this (possibly duplicate) question.
If that doesn't work, either try copying the existing code from from1.cs and from1.Designer.cs into new files in your project, or repairing/reinstalling Visual Studio. Just make sure to make a backup of your project first, just in case! ;)

I want to run the file inetmgr.exe so I can deploy a webservice, but I cannot seem to find it.
I have visual studio 2012 installed, and when it installed, it also installed the iis express 8 with it. However, start->run->inetmgr.exe produces an error message as the system does not find the file.
I am very much a beginner, so I apologize if my answer is stupid, and thank any potential answerers for all their patience...
inetmgr.exe is the exe of the regular IIS.
You need the iisexpress.exe. Have you looked at http://www.iis.net/learn/extensions/introduction-to-iis-express/iis-80-express-readme?
Do you need to start that to configure some settings? If so, the link I provided should help you out.

I'm working on a program that could actually delete all your system files.
so how can I sandbox it so it can only find its own files
or better can I put it in a kind of virtual machine environment, so it still can harm your system, but only the virtual.
it is a console application and the idea is that you have to develop it to be, a UI based machine and interact with other players / "machines"
although such contact may well also lead to major damage to your system.
i don't want the user to install a whole virtual machine and then execute the program, but this is the closest idea i got so far.
I think installing virtual machine is the only solution. If you are making the program able to delete all files in your system, it will be able to delete all files on your system. You are archiving exactly what you programmed, aren't you? So you just have to put it in Virtual machine or emulate environment for example by creating a folder on your drive and changing code of your application to have access only to this folder (walkaround...).
You could use Sandboxie:
Sandboxie runs your programs in an isolated space which prevents them from making permanent changes to other programs and data in your computer.

Yesterday, 2 of the 3 drives in my dev server's RAID 5 decided to die on me (with no warning). I've come to grips with the fact that my data is most likely lost unless I shell out some major bucks for professional data-resortoration. People, don't be an idiot like me and treat your RAID as a data backup!
Luckily I published the site about 4 hours before my files went bye-bye. Is there any way to run some [magical] program to restore my compiled site to their original files?
Also: I develop on one machine with the files stored on the server...is there some visual studio 2010 web cache on my local machine (the one that didn't crash) that I may be able to use?
you can try http://www.red-gate.com/products/reflector/ on the compiled site. May work.
If you have lost 2 of 3 drives you cannot get your data back.
You can use reflector on your compiled files to get your source code back. The standard version or reflector is free.
Log in to your FTP server and see what's there. Maybe the files were copied there.
I restored my RAID 100%.
The RAID configuration and some of Windows' files became corrupted. All I had to do was reconfigure the RAID and replace the boot files for Windows.

Looking to add dialing capabilities to my desktop application. Requires:
API/SDK to allow seamless integration into C#. An application user would have no idea who the VOIP provider is.
Allows re-sale in license. We include it as part of the package and charge our end users
Any packages out there that fit this bill?
Look at this Ozeki VoIP SDK. It is based on C#.
If you're looking to wrap up full softphone capabilities the main ones I'm aware are NCH's Express Talk and pjsip. I've never attempted to integrate with either so don't know how easy or hard it will be with C#. If you only need your application to be able to intiate and/or control calls you could use any SIP stack, an open source C# one being sipsorcery.
2600hz does this (and it's open-source).
Git repo here: https://github.com/2600hz/kazoo
Main site here: http://2600hz.com
I think this is what you're looking for although we don't have a softphone built-in (but integrate with most existing softphone clients).
Cheers,
Joshua
