This used to be a helpful forum. How can no one have any experience with this?

I have a dell xps desktop. It came with a standard HDD with windows 10. I added an SSD when I bought it and have used that for the OS and applications, I was able to set it to boot to that drive, I formatted the HDD that came with the computer and used it as storage. This has been the case for...

Other places I worked, in AD you just went to profile and entered the unc \\fileserver\users\%username% and once applied their name appeared and they had access after reboot. None of the AD accounts are like that where I am now. It appears that they are all mapped? Who knows! The way I described...

Same domain. I jsut do not know the process, once I do it I will be fine!

If you are running an EsXi host (on domain with static ip) and get in via vsphere, and create a new VM and make the server, a file server by adding the role. How do you make it so that all domain users can see the share drive when they click "computer"?

What is the model of your computer and what are the specs? did it come with 8.1 or did you upgrade?

I have no idea why my brain is acting like this lol, but I am thinking of moving my workspace to the other side of the room. However, there is no cable jack on that side and I do not want to have to drag a cable across the floor. My cable is plugged into my modem, and my router is plugged into...
