I'm a bit of a Windows Fan boy but that still made me laugh.

If you are trying to delete profiles then what @chazzy2501 said is your best option, you could just set it for tomorrow and move all the machines into that OU for the day and move them out once they pick up that policy. It's far cleaner than deleting just the folders.

This means I can stay up past my normal bedtime! Sweet! -
I've got about 200 hours in it and never had a problem with hackers at all. I also have a 165hz monitor and it still looks like it run smoothly so I think you should be fine, there is an option to select the HZ of the monitor you are running.

Does it get picked up in Device Manager at all when you plug it in? If it does, Uninstall the Driver that it shows then unplug it and plug it back in. It might then reinstall the USB driver for it.

Has anybody watched "The Strain"? I have it all ready to go but not actually spoken to anyone that watched it.

I don't think they are a good option for a day to day alternative to a laptop. They are lightweight and easily portable however they have nowhere near the same features as a laptop does. You can use them for a remote connection to a terminal server however it will run far slower than on a standard laptop as the hardware in Chromebooks is made just to browse the web. To put it in short terms, Chromebooks can do what Google Chrome can do and not much else. There is no local storage, if the user has no internet connection they won't be able to do anything.

Good luck friend! It sounds like a different role completely, I'm sure you'll do well!

His accent isn't that bad! It's only because I know him as Dexter that his accent sounds funny. It's a great show though, would recommend.

I wonder what their new unoffical motto will be. "You can be evil, just in a nice way."

https://www.wix.com/ Is pretty good, I know some people absolutely hate it but I's actually not that bad an I have never had an issue with it.

That's actually a really clean way of doing it, whenever I change a name I always miss something.

If the user doesn't exist or is disabled then it will move their homefolder to a different location, not sure if that will help but it's there anyway. Just change the top to variables. $homeDriveRoot is where the current active staff home folders are. $leaversRoot is where you want the folders moving instead of deleting just in case.

It could just be that the students have figured out what the root is and have write access to it. Restrict their access to just read and it should fix your problem.

It's not the Mac version! Sorry I just read that part, it's the Windows one. Doesn't the link on this article work: Sibelius - the leading music composition and notation software The one under "Full Installer"

I have a copy but it's 2.7gb, I can upload it for you.

How are people managing version upgrades to laptops etc?
ShellfishClive replied to LeMarchand's topic in Windows 10
We just have an agreement that we need that laptop back at certain times that we have agreed with GDPR coming up it kind of helps that you can say if I don't have it back that then the laptop runs the risk of being too far behind on security updates which could cause data leaks and the such. Trying to get staff to give up "their" laptops for 10 minutes is hard enough though so a whole day or two is insane! -
Try reinstalling the driver? If you press load it should let you point to a directory. Could something like APPLocker be blocking it?
-
We only have two machines that applied the update so should be alright for now.
-
Yeah changing the reg key locally did it for me. Worked a charm!

Getting staff to take it seriously...
ShellfishClive replied to Gongalong's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
It's a bit of an annoying process for you or someone else but you could take the key off them so they can't unlock it. When they want to unlock they have to request it from you and then you go back in and lock it back up when they are done. -

Have you tried another browser? That would be my first suggestion.
