nielsm posted:Some users manage to get their domain-joined, SCCM managed computers upgraded to Windows 10. How?! Browse to msn.com, click the popup, have local admin. Also I heard somewhere that if a domain joined computer running professional and not enterprise gets its updates from Microsoft and not WSUS it'll start getting the win10 update. Haven't verified this though.

For those little guys in the IT world without Enterprise or volume licensing that are stuck on pro I would say get WSUS setup now, you should have done this already anyway.

I ended up having to do the registry edit since the ADMX is for Server 2008R2+ and I'm running 2008 non R2 until later this year when I get new servers, which is also when I'll be getting a WSUS server setup. I've run some tests and I think we'd be okay with a switch to windows 10 with our current software, windows 10 isn't even a topic for upgrade until 2017 though.

Oh God; my job is a graveyard for failed IT careers. One of the guys I work with used to be director of IT at an MSP and now he's resetting passwords.  I'm too young to stagnate.

I found a user who doesn't know what an iPhone is. More specifically, said user thinks ALL phones are iPhones. Including desk phones that clearly say "Cisco" on them.

I could see people thinking all cell phones are iPhones because well, it's like Xerox and Kleenex the brand is also the product at some point. CEO asked about a getting an iPhone Galaxy 7S when they come out.

I had a very sweet old lady come in complaining about "Marshmallow spam." Turns out she commented on a facebook video from a page called Marshmallow involving some dogs, and every time someone else commented she got an email telling her, leading her to get like 9000 emails. This lady had not one, but two Ask toolbars in her Internet Explorer, along with two other unrelated toolbars. She navigated to Facebook by typing "facebook" in the AOL search bar on her homepage, and kept losing track of where the cursor was on the screen.

Edit: On the flip side the file server is commonly referred to as "The S Drive" since everyone has a drive mapping on "S:", nevermind the fact they also all have desktop shortcuts.

Wow, what a busy Saturday for me. So of the calls I got today, 2 of them really stood out as unusal 1) Person called in to get a couple of drives replaced - one pred fail and one marked as failed. Problem: Customer had a puncture several months ago (Check here for more info on why it's BAD) and instead of doing the right thing to fix it, his management decided to just keep the RAID as it is. Which means the rebuild they have has bad data, and logs I got showed it was still showing errors. Got to right up the riot act of why they need to fix this (basically ends with "Which will cost you more money: taking the time to get someone onsite to backup your database and redeploy OR your database getting to an point beyond recovery?") 2) Someone decided to pay money for us to help troubleshoot an issue on a Dell PowerEdge 2600. Now I can say that is the oldest server I've ever helped on.

Super Slash posted:gently caress that, absolutely everything is "The Server" Oh, I was talking about their personal computer/laptop/tablet. Not sure why, but 70% of our users just call that part the "hard drive". Everything for us is the network. Is the network down? Is the network slow? did we upgrade the network? are we having network issues?

Super Slash posted:Edit: This triggered me. I really hate it when people ask me to give them access to their M drive or I drive or whatever the gently caress drive mapping. I have to find documentation (good luck) or find someone else from that department and look at their machine to find out what the path is. I just did a computer upgrade for somebody and they actually told me the server and folder path they needed a mapped drive for. I was blown away.

Drive mapping should be handled by GPO so all you need to do is ensure the user is in the correct OU and security groups. *in an ideal world*
