  1. Have a mix of 256 & 512 here RE the Profile remove GPO, it seems to work ok here unless the students move around alot. We have it Set as 1 day in some rooms, but have found the timer resets every time X User logs in. So you if you have weekly delete and the same kids sit at the same PC every lesson, its never going to clear.
  2. Maybe these settings?
  3. Has something turned off / licence expired / are they uptodate? Just checked our portal and can see WAN IP & MAC on devices that haven't been on in a while WAN, LAN, MAC on (on) devices Latest user on all of them RE the name, not sure if i am getting mixed with Senso and it was something i looked at as we were moving from impero, but i know if you didn't set the "Asset ID" what showed in the console was gibberish
  4. Relevant XKCD
  5. V1 Again but I'm doubting they do it differently The "login tool" seems to work by setting the AutoAdmin login keys and they restarting the login service to work. Which has caused us tons of issues when it doesn't clear they keys properly (ie logging in as the admin account that was bulked logged on for whatever reason) and if your staff are using the login tool it would explain why its clearing the keys
  6. Mostly Steam keys on Humble, With a Healthy dose of Epic and rare Ubi/EA Tried Greedfall over the weekend, controls are rage inducing but has good bones. I Will go Against the grain and say Gamepass is still exceptionally good value, even if it is expensive. Cloud gaming is far better than i expected it to be aswell, i can see the 2030s gen of console being a thin client Need to get Just Cause redownloaded, been hankering to play flying squirrel explosive sim
  7. I'm guessing you Mean DRM free? Humble Bundle is a good site for cheaper games aswell, esp the "Choice" bundle, as it throws a handful of games at you a month for £12, Normally 1/2 AA/AAA Games and then some older or indie stuff. (last months big was WWE25) Really good if you want to try new things NB; You own the games its not a rental They also have a Bundle atm for Several Alan Wake games (Including the new one), Control (which is a fab game), Quantum break & Max Payne for £24
  8. In a couple of places where we have gone with none touch panels, we have got off the shelf TVs from amazon. TLC in our case as they were cheap. Did get one smashed up and would only be a cut risk if someone tired to cut themselves on the broken screen. Unless someone tells me we did wrong, i'd image any rules would come down to your internal risk assessments/policy's. We did however get it fitted by our IWB supplier rather than our caretakers
  9. After Several years of people Asking they have released a Beta for the education edition dedicated server Dedicated Server 101 – Minecraft Education
  10. Can you rotate it in the Camera settings? and does it then look ok? Send them a Guide to hopefully do it once and then VLC Just opens normally?
  11. On V1 Sometimes Senso completely stops the internet working if someone else is logged in, to the point where we had to disable switch user on some of our suites. Found that one of the fixes was restarting the senso Client on the machines, which might be worth a try, senso?RestartClient Was the V1 Command
  12. Not sure if this is the right place to ask, But could PowerShell/Batch be added to the code syntax highlighting options? Loving the new dark mode!
  13. The storage space you will have on SharePoint will be in the hundreds of TBs so you won't have to worry about that, but getting rid of junk is a good idea. FWIW Azure do have blob storage, which i think is around $6/TB for instant access, but why pay for something that can sit in sharepoint and is likely only accessed a few times a year. That being said, if people are working on the large files in media, you may still end up needing a small onsite server to handle the "hot" files, unless you have really fast internet. A Script for you to check last accessed date I'd recommended running on your file server, it will take significantly longer the more files you have. Changing D:\Common\Staff\ to wherever the root of your media/video files are C:\Scripts\ to wherever you want the data to dump out. i wouldn't take these as gospel, but its reading the same attributes as any of the tools you will find to do this $Date = Get-Date -Format dd_MM_yyyy Start-Transcript "C:\Scripts\filehistory\Files_$Date.txt" $FileRoots = Get-ChildItem "D:\Common\Staff\" -Directory foreach ($fileroot in $FileRoots){ $filerooters = Get-ChildItem "D:\Common\Staff\$fileroot" -Directory $Area = $Fileroot.Name new-item "C:\Scripts\filehistory\$Area\" -ItemType Directory -Force foreach($FileRot in $filerooters){ $FolderName = $filerot.Name.Replace(" ","_") Write-Host $FolderName $Filelist = Get-ChildItem "D:\Common\Staff\$fileroot\$filerot" -Recurse $OutputFile = "C:\Scripts\filehistory\$Area\File_History_$FolderName`_$Date_Size.csv" Foreach ($Files in $Filelist){ $LastAccess = $Files.LastAccessTime $LastModi = $Files.LastWriteTime $Created = $Files.CreationTime $Path = $Files.Directory $Name = $Files.Name $FullPath = $Files.FullName $Size = $Files.Length/1KB ##Write-Host "$Path $Name $Created $LastModi $LastAccess $Size" [PSCustomObject] [ordered] @{ FilePath = $Path FileName = $Name CreatedDate = $Created LastMod = $LastModi LastAccess = $LastAccess FullPath = $FullPath Size = $Size } | Export-Csv -Path $OutputFile -NoTypeInformation -Append -Force } } } Stop-Transcript
  14. Oooooh A reason to try my local new cinema
  15. Teams is a pain. It installs the installer to the C Drive, then installs to the user profile, which is the version effected by updates when the user is updated. You will need to update the MSI You are pushing out (I think once a term the last time i looked at dates and how long versions can update too) Anyone having issues will need a profile wipe, or to manually update teams.
  16. Can be seen here Final Root Cause Analysis Sept 2025 The TL;DR is, they didn't scale up enough and didn't do enough load testing, mainly caused by crap code.
  17. We Use Thonny in lessons VS Code is what i use for work stuff
  18. you can get that on Humble Bundle (choice) for £12 at the moment + a few other games, but is PC Steam
  19. Fallout Series (Apocalypse RPG), put many hundreds of hours into the series and i think its mostly on gamepass too. If you want to try it, Start with 4(has mods on console), then 3, then NV, 76 is good if you fancy a multiplayer but also signleable game 1,2,Tatics are turnbased isometric games, and we don't mention the other game Starfield (has mods on console), (Space RPG) if you ignore the people who get pleasure out of hating the game, its actually pretty good, although i'd wait until DLC 2 comes out soon ish Elder Scrolls (Dragon and Swords RPG), I have only played Skyrim and the Oblivion remaster, but loved both Now for none Bethesda stuff Cloudpunk (Cyberpunk Taxi Driver), only about a 10 hour game, but it was the first game i'd completed in a long time Stardew Valley, Coral Island, Wydle Flowers, Gravekeeper, Farming Sim - 'Farming' / Life sims, you will either play for hours or 10 minutes and give up Acecombat if you enjoy flying games Hardship Shipbreaker - Spaceship scraping Sim
  20. I'm having a similar issue, but with a different make/model from what I can see although the drivers should work with Win 11 Driver isolation/security/core isolation something in that collection of security settings is saying no
  21. Better than I expected from them, but still meh More companies need to learn from Cloudflare and there incident reports, should really be the minimum standard
  22. you should see if you can get the tarrot cards printed properly Seems like a fun game to curse someone's PC use
  23. Looks like the backlight is starting to Die i have found one of 3 things will happen it will stay like that it will get worse it will completely break overnight Are you lucky enough to have a long term warranty on it?
  24. What problem are you trying to solve? i'd looked at one personally a while ago when LTT did some videos on them, it sounds like reMarkable are heading down the subscription to make the device useable path Looking at stuff again, there is probably a good cheaper alternative if its just for something like note taking or maybe e-marking Edit: Also you can get an IPAD for less, which is likely to be better in every way apart from battery life
  25. I'm getting reports of it being dog slow again here
