    Risk of running unsupported server version

    PERSONALLY, I do have multiple physical backups under my control as well as cloud backup. I would doubt that any other physical location is safer than a professional cloud backup solution. It is certainly preferable to keeping a month old backup on an external drive stored in the owner's shed...

    Risk of running unsupported server version

    Well, the data is not going to be lost. We have cloud backup. It would be an inconvenience and scrambling around to reload a server if it got infected or corrupted. Plus it could spread to other internal machines causing a generalized cluster. I would say that on a daily or weekly basis, normal...

    Risk of running unsupported server version

    All other PCs are Windows 10 but have no third party anti-virus installed. The previous owner of the company didn't believe in anti-virus and probably wouldn't worry about the server being out of support. The new owner MAY care but he's trying to get everything in order and has limited time and...

    Risk of running unsupported server version

    I was wondering how to explain to a customer the real world risk of running Server 2012 Essentials now that extended support has expired. It's behind a firewall (just an Asus home router!!) and it's not exposed to the internet on any port. So, I was wondering how to explain the risk if some...

    Spam Messages

    Those guys are not much to worry about vs. ransomware. That's when you really get hosed. Opening weird emails and/or clicking on weird links is where you normally get problems. And also downloading bootleg games, software. I have to say though that I never see any regular viruses any more, like...

    What if they keep the passwords in Excel and not a CSV? Otherwise - clever, I think.

    Change name not showing in user account

    I would just delete the MS account and enable the administrator account so that you have a "back door" to get into your system in case anything crazy happens (profile corruption, forgotten password). From ADMINISTRATOR cmd net user administrator /active:yes Then log in to the administrator...

    Change name not showing in user account

    I would just allow the Windows 11 installation to create a user (Microsoft account). Then create a new LOCAL user with ADMIN priveleges. Then delete the Microsoft account. OR You can use a fake account to have Windows 11 account creation fail and allow you to create a local account. This...

    Change name not showing in user account

    I wouldn't go back to Windows 10. It's the past. Windows 11 is the present and the future. You will just be stuck as a Windows 10 refugee if you don't move forward. There are settings and tweaks (most likely) to alleviate some of your dislike of Windows 11. I only say this because you say you...

    Per Microsoft Link [The Wireless Zero Configuration programming interface is no longer supported as of Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008. Instead, use the Native Wifi API, which provides similar functionality. For more information, see About the Native Wifi API.] The other thing is in...

    Domain join from wifi connected laptop

    Windows 10 Pro laptop client with Windows Server 2012 (Small Business Server) domain. Is there any reason why I can't join the domain when connected to wifi? All the DNS settings are the same as a wired client as shown by IPCONFIG. I just can't find anything on the internet that explains this...

    I see we have another necroposter - someone that revives of old threads with a comment that is not particularly insightful, most likely for some type of personal gain
