So far this morning:
- a windows 2016 server for which we needed to dig deep in powershell so it wouldn't reset the clock every 6 hours
- a user whose local account services is totalled and he can't access his desktop any more
Personally I would like the start menu search to only look for applications but I gave up on that.
I suppose using windows only for office would help, of course.
- smt88 7y agoI use Windows for servers too (not my choice), and both of those things sound like a sysadmin who is making strange choices and not actual Windows bugs. I could be wrong, of course.
- johnchristopher 7y agoTo be fair, I don't have full control of the domain for the server and I suspect a catch-21 regarding the clock setting and the domain sync thingy. I fixed it by "resetting a lot of time thing" but I am a linux guy before a windows guy so I ended up in Powershell (which i like). I attribute the other one to a brutal shutdown of the PC that somehow corrupted a running update, some random clicking from the user in a misguided attempt to fix things behind the back of IT et voilà.
