I picked up Divinity Original Sin 2 on sale, for the Switch. It's good, but hard!
That game is so mean sometimes. There are some stupid things you can do that will kill just about anything in the game supposedly. Tried to get through without that. Currently have a save at the final battle. Some day I'll pick it up and give that last bit another go.

I might end up with a 6 day weekend for the price of one sick day. We may have a snow day tomorrow. I'm taking a sick day on Wednesday, Thursday is Thanksgiving, and Friday they're giving us off for the first time in the history of the org.
Denver area getting hit hard. Had a tech go onsite tonight only to find out the clinic she was scheduled to be at had already locked up and forgotten that she was coming!
Yeah, Denver is pretty much closed for the day. I'm working from home. May skip the office tomorrow as well.
Messing with my Pine Book Pro. Keyboard seems to be significantly more reliable since installing the firmware update earlier today.

When using UPD, is there anyway to access various users profiles' folders and files from the RDS server file system?
Example:
C:\Users\Bob\DesktopEdit: I found that I can path to it via UNC (\ \server\c$\users\Bob\Desktop), but get permissions error when I go locally, from C:\Users\Bob\Desktop. Also, the Bob folder is only a shortcut (LNK file) in the users directory.
The path is there in the form of a symbolic link. So, no. It's one way to limit exposure to ransomware.
If there is a need, the user can be logged off and one can mount the .VHDX file to gain access to whatever is needed.
Yeah, I fairly often have to copy files into a user profile here and there. I did notice that the disk is only mounted for the duration of their session and obviously would prevent interaction with it if the user is logged out. But, mounting the VHDX isn't that bad... if I had to do it when they were logged out. I would have to revisit a tool I just saw somewhere that allows you to quickly match the VHDX file with the user, since it only uses the SID in the file name.
If you click the counter there's a popup with the breakdown.
The script I started with was shamelessly stolen from a Technet post.
That gave me a pretty good start. I did some light editing to more accurately match what was going on at my employer when I first used it for a large batch of users rather a while ago.
Now I'm making some more changes and additions to turn it into something a bit more broadly useful day to day.
I'm working on similar project a bit.
The script I'm working with pulls a bunch of info from CSV to create an AD account and populate.
Group membership is based heavily on location and job role here.
I'm thinking I'll use some of the info in the CSV about those attributes to help assign groups using If statements.
Curious what other ideas people may have for this.
I believe some devices/MDM setups allow you to create an isolated space on an employee owned device. You then control that isolated space not the whole device. When the employee leaves that controlled bit can be removed without wiping the device.
No idea how effective/reliable/manageable any of that is since I've not implemented or supported that style of MDM setup. Only done full company owned devices myself.
I've seen issues with search for the last week or so. A few people here have been unable to search public folders or their inboxes on and off. Supposedly resolved. We'll see...
Win7 profiles create a folder username.V2, Win10 profiles create a folder username.V6. The profiles are different enough that MS won't reuse them apparently.
When they log into Win10 it is creating them a whole new profile without their stuff. Likely in the same location as the old profile given GPOs are involved.
There is no auto sync for this process that I'm aware of. You can copy docs and what not from the old profile to the new after the new folder is created.
Somebody might have a script lying around that would help out with the move?
