Hi Our desktop shortcut points to c:\Program files (x86) but Chrome has now started installing itself in the c:\Program files directory if manually done. I've tried forcing a symbolic link between both directories but no luck - but is there anyway to have just one shortcut on the desktop that works for both? J.

Hi I can add our Bizhub's to IPP printing - but can't get authentication to work. They just delete the printout once it has arrived. I can't figure out what is wrong on them. Advice and tips welcomed!

Hi Any Update?
-
Hi We are using Win 10 (1809), roaming profiles, desktop shortcuts linked to a shared folder, public desktop blocked. So I need a Google Drive FS shortcut. The trouble is when this updates it creates a new folder. Is there a workaround e.g. a script that will find the exe in a number of locations e.g. C:\Progs\Google FS\29.01.5.6 or when it is deleted and recreated by an updated in say 29.05.7.2 folder thanks J.

Hi Does anyone here use XMA (was Viglen). My wife's school has them and she is not amused. Just wondered if anyone has a good contact as they probably don't wish to speak to me. ;-)

Hi We use SIMS .Net (Hosted) however there is a local client on our main server. The issue is none of the passwords like sysadmin or sa work with the default as the technician previous didn't leave any information. So I need to reset them. SIMS Support are not what I'd expect them to be and I am getting to the end of my tether waiting. Has anyone got a resolution? thanks J.

Hi Recently we've been having issues with SIMS.Net and right click (focus) to select options e.g. in mark sheets/attendance. This has been failing to bring up the option menus. Does anyone know of a fix for the clients using RDP. Currently using Win 10 (latest version with all fixes) J.

Hi Has this been fixed yet??? -
Thanks - but Securus was coming in at £600+VAT and Net Support DNA is so much more!
-
I've just had the latest licensing cost for Securus come through. I am not happy as their current product has remained static for a number of years, whilst they've begun building their new (more expensive) product. I just want a monitoring tool for e-safety - we currently use Sophos on our machines if there is an alternative there?? Thanks in advance of your help and advice J.

Hi I've had a quick look - but can you force the Ribbon Toolbar in Office 2016 so it shows Tabs and Commands as default...is there a group policy that can be set? thanks J.
-
Hi Just wondered what GPO settings others use - especially for the cache folders etc. I set our GPO settings up for Chrome years ago and it really needs an overhaul. thanks J.

Works fine at work. At home I get Error Code 5? The one thing that is annoying is at work Google docs open in Edge as default - I'd love to change this.

Hi We disabled SMBv1 because of the Ransomware virus. However on the Konica Bizhub even getting it to use SMBv2 as the protocol we can't scan to a shared folder. Has anyone else managed to solve this.

Thanks. I've tried this - but really looking for the personal folders like Download My Docs File Explorer etc that you get on the far left along with Shutdown/Log Off etc
-
On the latest Win10 build in the Start Menu are shortcuts which you can have to user's Documents. Downloads etc. On our network these don't appear. Is there anyway I can force this with a GPO? regards James
-
Thanks - I've got the Start Menu xml working for the tiles. However, it's things like Solitaire in the Apps. As for Powershell - I've tried removing - but the stupid things keep on coming back.

Hi I've blocked Apps using AppLocker - but I'd like to remove the links from Start Menu. Our machines use the local start menu on the PCs but I can't find where to remove those lovely Apps that are blocked. Can is this be done in Group Policy? You'd make my weekend! thanks J.

The roaming profiles are exactly the same. For some reason for Yr8s and above they are OK. Yr7s can't use the library/Favorites/Quick Access features in Windows Explorer. I am just stumped to what is going on.

Hi We are running 2010 and 2013 together and have Desktop redirection running to the same location. We wish to make sure that when you click on Word it loads 2010 or 2013 depending on which is installed. Can you help? Can it be scripted? J.
