Easy. There's about three or four sites that I go to that cover Windows pretty well. On top of that, there's also the closest thing to a manual for Windows and all things Microsoft: Developer tools,...

Definitely agree on the not keeping anything stored locally that isn't expendable, or stored somewhere else as well. Everyone by now knows I'm a big fan of OneDrive so it's where my important files...

The problem with stopping Windows startup services is that some seemingly needless services are dependencies for necessary ones. If anything, it's generally third-party apps that seem to cause issues...

If they're using Windows 10 or newer, they can always print to the built-in PDF printer and then send that. It's an extra step, but it can often get rid of a lot of these issues.

Two other things...

Best of luck to you.

Even if you're out of the industry, you still have something to offer here even if it's just a visit for old time's sake.

You may need to install the self-signed cert on any devices that are also being used to collect SNMP data. If the device doesn't trust the cert, it may not be able to collect data.

If you're looking for a new 3M vacuum, do a search for SCS which now owns the design of the 3M vac. The division was sold off by 3M a few years back, but the filtres and parts are identical.

SCS -...

Adobe allows you to store your permanent license keys online with an Adobe Account. Office will do the same signing in with a Microsoft account. I have a few older keys stored in my own account, even...

Anytime something slides past the onboard AV, my first instinct is to go with a clean install as you can never be entirely assured that the operating system hasn't been altered in some deep way. ...

Really you only tested two browsers: Chrome, Edge, and Opera all use the same rendering engine. Firefox is the last browser still using its own engine, Gecko. The only difference comes in the fact...

While 64-bit operating systems can run 32-bit applications without issues, Windows 10 is the last version of Windows that will have a 32-bit edition. Windows 11 RTM, OEM, and retail versions will all...

It's also a bigger waste of money. Why RAID out workstations? You don't need massive amounts of storage and there are much easier ways to manage making data easily portable from one system to...

You can try checking the BIOS of the device to see if SMART reporting is available, which could allow the device to interact with the drive firmware and report any errors.

Any pre-boot...

The only way it could happen that it would continue to print after recovery from a power failure would be if the job never left the client workstation or the print server. It's no different than when...

This is one reason I prefer Microsoft allowing to provision an account for just SMTP Authentication. I can create a mail enabled account and only give it access to send mail. For things like an MFP...

Seeing /etc/init.d makes me feel like I've used a time machine to the past. I've been spoiled by systemd.

For a lot of customers, STunnel can be a good option for an internal SMTP relay server....

Unless I'm mistaken, the C3300 doesn't support newer versions of TLS, which may be part of the issue.

STunnel is a good workaround. I have it running on a VM for scan to email and embedded email...

Let me introduce you to: Centralia, Pennsylvania - Wikipedia

Scanning will still work as it does now as long as the account being used is configured in the 365 tenant to allow SMTP authentication which is what scan to email uses. It's a check-in-the-box for an...

It all depends on what your customers expect. Most of mine are small businesses that deal with much larger ones or poached management from larger ones so their expectations are a little different....

While it's good to have specialists for each side of the house, it's certainly a lot cheaper to recruit from within.

I don't have a huge staff, but when I've had interns or other newbies whether...

In terms of the Haves and Have-Nots: a lot of the Have-Nots refused to do the investment in their staff. If you're getting people trained on IT and connectivity skills you can't pay them what you...

It's more of an operational preference as to where data resides. Security is rather strong either way, but it really depends on what you want to be able to access outside of your network or share...

For most of the businesses I support, the purpose of an MFP has completely flipped. Instead of being a device to replicate paper, it's being used to convert paper and deliver electronic files. It's...

The answer is that techs won't be configuring AAD or other SSO solutions for customers. It will be up to an administrator for the customer's tenant to add the device to their cloud service, likely...
