What is DefaultQuestions?
« on: October 06, 2017, 02:25:48 PM »
I found this file in C:\Windows\System32 It is called DefaultQuestions and searching the internet got me nothing, I will not insert it as an attachment just in case it is malicious. Its short so not to bad to paste. here it is:
{
    "Location": "\\\\scratch2\\scratch\\jennz\\JSON\\DefaultQuestions.json",
    "FreshnessPeriodMilliseconds": 600000,
    "UserActions":
    [
        {
            "ActionID": "WindowsShellCoreProvider",
            "EventSequence":
            [
                {
                    "EventType": "ETW",
                    "ProviderGuid": "{30336ed4-e327-447c-9de0-51b652c86108}",
                    "EtwID": 99999999
                }
            ]
        }
    ],
    "Questions":
    [
        {
            "ActionID": "WindowsShellCoreProvider",
            "QuestionID": 1,
            "QuestionType": "5 Stars",
            "QuestionText": "This question should never be asked",
            "ExpiryTimeMilliseconds": 10000,
            "Priority": 1,
            "ReAskTimeMilliseconds": 60000
        }
    ]
}

Its driving me crazy just because it says "This Question Should Never be asked"
If anyone knows what this is and what it does that would be great, the Internet has nothing on it.
Thanks!

I believe it is a standard Windows file. I have it on my PC, identical to yours (at least it looks that way)

{
    "Location": "\\\\scratch2\\scratch\\jennz\\JSON\\DefaultQuestions.json",
    "FreshnessPeriodMilliseconds": 600000,
    "UserActions":
    [
        {
            "ActionID": "WindowsShellCoreProvider",
            "EventSequence":
            [
                {
                    "EventType": "ETW",
                    "ProviderGuid": "{30336ed4-e327-447c-9de0-51b652c86108}",
                    "EtwID": 99999999
                }
            ]
        }
    ],
    "Questions":
    [
        {
            "ActionID": "WindowsShellCoreProvider",
            "QuestionID": 1,
            "QuestionType": "5 Stars",
            "QuestionText": "This question should never be asked",
            "ExpiryTimeMilliseconds": 10000,
            "Priority": 1,
            "ReAskTimeMilliseconds": 60000
        }
    ]
}

You do have a point but I am too stubborn to stop at that
