Manually and Automatically Removing IIS Log Files

Manual
Delete IIS log files older than 30 days from a specific site log folder:
ForFiles.exe -p C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC1 -m *.log -d -30 -c "CMD.exe /C Del @path"
This removes log files older than 30 days from the W3SVC1 folder. Add more folders as needed.
Automatic
Create a batch file at C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC_LogsMaintenance.bat and place your cleanup commands inside it.
ForFiles.exe -p C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC1 -m *.log -d -30 -c "CMD.exe /C Del @path"

Run
Mark the volume dirty so Check Disk runs on the next boot:
fsutil dirty set c:
Clear
If Check Disk does not complete and the system keeps trying to scan on every boot, clear the scheduled check:
chkntfs /x c:
The /x switch tells Windows not to check volume C: on the next reboot. If the system is stuck in a loop, boot into Windows PE, Windows installation media, Windows-to-Go, or other boot media, run that command, then boot Windows normally.
Repair
After Windows loads, run a full disk check and repair:
chkdsk /f /r c:
This should complete the five stages of the scan and clear the dirty bit.

HP CMSL BIOS Update (WiP)

PowerShell
Work-in-progress BIOS update script using the HP Client Management Script Library (CMSL).
<#  Creator @gwblok - GARYTOWN.COM
    Used to download BIOS Updates from HP, then Extract the bin file.
    It then checks and suspends bitlocker and runs the upgrade.  It does NOT reboot the machine, you can modify the command line to do that, or have your deployment method call the reboot.
    The download and extract areas on in the TEMP folder, as well as the log.
    REQUIREMENTS:  HP Client Management Script Library
    Download / Installer: https://ftp.hp.com/pub/caps-softpaq/cmit/hp-cmsl.html  - This will download version 1.1.1. and install if needed
    Docs: https://developers.hp.com/hp-client-management/doc/client-management-script-library-0
    This Script was created using version 1.1.1
    Updates: 2019.03.14
        Replaced [Decimal] with [version].  Hopefully will fix issues caused by machines that had more than one decimal point in version.
        Orginally had [Decimal] in code to remove leading "0" on BIOS version reported by HP. Example: Local Version said 1.45, from HP site as 01.45
        Modified Bitlocker Detection.  Technically, probably don't even need the suspend bitlocker code, as HP's upgrade util is supposed to do it.
        Added logic for both HPBIOSUPDREC64.exe & HPFirmwareUpdRec64.exe updaters
