You can actually disable that behavior with a reg tweak. Will allow you to create files where privs are sufficient regardless of location. It is a security feature, but I don't like Windows bossing...

Hey were did that come from. I don't see it on my LTSC 2019 install fortunately.
Mine will only boot from USB when selected from the boot menu, I think that's how most computers are. So I leave it in until I get to the desktop and use the "safely remove" icon. Windows actually...
Unless I'm not understanding correctly, select source on the left, select destination on the right, select mirror on top right. Compare then sync. Change destination on the right, compare then...
Yeah you're missing something. I use FFS to mirror all or portions of any filesystem to any location. I don't see any way it would be limited unless you're trying to do something unusual like...
I'm running LTSC 2019 which allows you to turn off automatic updates completely, which is how I have it set. I do cumulative updates manually, download them through the Microsoft Update Catalog. ...
Yeah pretty typical, Windows is always running stuff in the background that accesses the disk. Now if you see disk activity running at high levels all the time you need to look into it.
Actually...
Second that, I use FreeFileSync to mirror my data to a couple backup drives. Really nice piece of software.
Yeah I just installed a terabyte Samsung 970 Evo Plus, that thing is crazy fast, scores over 3k on both seq read and seq write in Crystal Disk Mark, still a bit pricey though.
Don't have a backup software recommend, but wanted mention how nicely the Samsung T5 drives are working for me as external backup drives. They're really fast and relatively inexpensive. They come...
Yeah there's a lot of that kind of thing. I shut it off, delete it, or disable it wherever I can. I'm not into providing them who knows what information for their benefit. Besides I don't want...
Three of one terabyte NVMe drives in raid maybe? That would be sick fast, expensive too.
I have 16gb of ram on my machine. I don't mess with the page file and leave it in auto, though I've changed it manually before short term for troubleshooting a problem I had with some software. ...
Any network share on your router will do, does not have to be a particular type of drive, can be any drive that the router can see on the port and share on the network.
One other note, it's...
Read up on the SMB protocol and the master browser. It's something automated with Windows network sharing. A computer becomes the master browser through an election on the network. So if you...
Same here, disabled fast start and hibernation. I have fast SSDs and fast start makes little difference. I want the computer to do a full reset when I power down anyway. Fast start reloads...
I did my share of hair pulling to get all my computers on my network to see each other and browse shares. Some things I did;
Enable SMB 1.0 from Windows features on the win10 machines.
...
For me I'm sticking with 1080p Blu-Rays. The 4K UHD optical disks use an encryption key that makes ripping them a bit more involved, need the key first. I'm trying to get away from using the...
I've been learning a lot about DVD and Blu-Ray formats lately as I recently decided to rip all my DVD and Blu-Ray movies to mp4 and store them on hard disk for playback.
Over the counter DVD...
Me too, dumped IE quite a long time ago for security concerns, system got compromised serveral times using it. And this from the company that makes Windows, yikes!
My last desktop system had a Gigabyte motherboard. Was never too happy with the USB performance through the BIOS. I've been using only only laptop computers a while now, but at the time it was win7...
You might want to consider adding type-C ports as well as the USB 3.1 type A ports. I've been favoring type C when I can. The reason is they're a much better design.
Type A ports have an...
Since we're talking about the event log let me mention I finally found a fix for those damn DCOM errors. Turns out there's a runtime broker call with bad privileges out of the box. Such a simple...
Glad you found the problem, that would be an unusual circumstance. You can force all networks to private in win10 by going to the security policy editor either from gpedit.msc or secpol.msc. Go to...
I seem to recall having some trouble with that pass some years ago when I first starting using WSIM. Without the "install to" and "disk configuration" sections you'll get setup's disk configuration...
