I had 4 windows 7 home computers in a small office (not in server domain) and used windows 7 home group to share 1 folder on a computer to be accessible to the other 3 computers.  I recently upgraded these computers to windows 10 pro and of course, the home group is gone.  What would be the best way to simulate the home group so I can share out a folder on 1 computer to the others in a windows 10 pro environment?

I have a customer that needs to access an Excel file by a group of employees. they all work on this file and would like to collaborate on this file. They use Office 365 on each computer. They have an old server that stores their files.  
I am moving everything to Office 365 and need to know what can be done to allow all group members to access the file at the same time?

Hi,

I have folder share in windows server 2008R2. I there any application can I install to request password when anyone want to delete any file or folders inside the shared folder? Also, can the application track who delete this file or folder?

I do know that I can restrict delete files by using permission but this will not allow user to delete file.

Thanks

I started to build a spreadsheet but decided there must be a better way:

I have a domain with workstation fileshares.
For each:

I've followed common practice in setting local groups (because there are non-joined accesses to be allowed).
One might call this the "permissions" level.

And, I've established domain groups.
One might call this the Role level.

And, I've made the domain groups members of the local groups.
Nice and tidy....  It's easy to remember the structure because it's consistent; i.e. used consistently.

But it's not so easy to analyze because there are groups within groups.  
Who has permission?
Are there any duplicate or conflicting permissions?
etc.

What's a good way to *see* all this?
It should be easy.
For a small organization, it should fit on one page.

Part of the challenge is that some of the information is only on the workstation and some is only on the AD Server.  
Maybe a PowerShell script?
I've not found any commercial or other tools that seem to address this.

I found a video on youtube that I forgot I uploaded on an account about 10 years ago.  I found it by searching for the youtube channel name.  I have no idea what the username or password is for the youtube account.  What do I do to retreive that info?

I’ve been qbitorrent for quite a while and has been working all this time, but unfortunately, I updated to the latest version of qbitorrent…nothing downloads anymore. I’ve always used Cyberghost w/ qbittorrent, and don’t think how that would be a problem all of the sudden.
Being I did the upgrade I do not know the previous version of qbittorrent I had that worked.
When I start a torrent, the status just stays at stalled regardless if there are thousands of seeds. I select do not check hash, and the torrent reads %100 downloaded and seeding. However, there is no file downloaded.
I’ve uninstalled/reinstall the new version but no luck. I’ve tried an older version but no luck.
I’ve been surfing the internet, and I do believe others have this problem after updating, but haven’t had any luck yet.

Besides just dragging and dropping, is there a recommended way or method to move all the files and structure from Dropbox to OneDrive?  I see there are tools for purchase but was wondering what the best method is?

Hi All,

A user that uses Bloomberg has asked me if she could run or open a file with the extension named REQ. And surely, I could not answer it. I guess she was asking about how to open it.

See screenshot attached and please let me know what is your opinion.

I'm working on a 2019 DC testbed.  There are a number of Windows workstations and the Servers which have file shares established for testing.  Access to the shares seems fine.

I'm wondering about Publishing the shares.
In one case, a Windows 7 workstation won't publish the share.  We get:
"The system encountered the following error while saving the publish information of share xyzShare.
Error 0x80070005: Access is denied."

Access by who??  There appear to be no access problems anywhere.....
It would be nice to fix this.
But then, is "publishing" important at all in a small network?

The user connects to a host using FileZilla with a SFTP connection.
Every day the host adds files to a folder, and the contents of the folder is downloaded to a folder on their Windows Server.

This is being done by a user at the moment.
Can FileZilla be automated so that it can have the folder on the local server receives all the new files placed on the server?

Thanks.

The user has to encrypt files with PGP on Windows 7 64 bit before submitting them to home office using FileZilla  SFTP

The home office recommended Symantec Desktop.   This product requires the purchase from a Symentec Partner

What alternatives can I use?  I would like to get this set up today.  I would like a product with an intuitive appearance rather than command line.


Thanks.
