My boss' computer just started doing this. He logs in and all of the his Documents and Pictures are gone. Quickbooks can't find its files.

If you look into his User account, everything is there....

Ken,

Been stable since that reboot, I applied the BIOS update, still no drama. Gotta love them intermittent issues! I'll report back any developments.

Jack, got it all filled out. Need third...

The problem does go away temporarily after a clean boot. I am trying to determine a trigger (like two programs that do not play well together) but have not found a pattern yet. I rebooted earlier to...

Ken,

Yes to MSI drivers,
I have not updated BIOS yet.
Yes, I placed them according to the manual and just double checked - A2, B2.

In November I put have a fresh Windows 10 install (old one was freaking out on me and Fall Creators Update fully hosed it) and got new Coffee Lake CPU/Mem/MB while I was at it. I was really expecting...

Ok, I feel stupid,
I still had "Allow Windows to manage homegroup connections" set on my Dev computer. Changing to "Use user accounts and passwords to connect to other computers" fixed it. (this in...

Back to debugging this. So I changed my Dev computer to be the MB (and verified with NetBIOS Scanner). I also re-pinged DBServer for good measure and I am still unable to connect. All...

That sounded so good! But rebooting the MB did not fix it. :( Gotta head out, but back in the office on Monday to try again.

My Dev computer (Win 10 Pro) cannot get to any shares on my DBServer (Win 10 Pro) anymore.

I have tried the usual (SMB installed, NetBIOS over TCP/IP, typos in share, both on Private network,...

While looking around for the settings you want I noticed that DbServer was on a Public Network while Dev was correctly on a Private Network. The last time I moved this computer it defaulted to Public...

I just moved into my business partner's home office and I am trying to get Dev (computer #1, Win10 Pro) to see DbServer's (computer #2, also Win10 Pro) Postgres Database to no avail so far.

He...

@Superfly, MS tech support said the key was fine. And it worked find when doing the clean install. The key is "invalid" in that you cannot use it for an upgrade. MS error codes are notoriously opaque...

Yeah, that and a few other tricks. Doesn't work with OEM, only full version. One of the tradeoffs for a cheaper version of Windows.

Scenario: Bought Win10 Home OEM for new computer build. Installed it and all of my requisite 3rd party software. Then find out that Home 10 does not allow RDP connections. :cry: Buy 10 Pro OEM for...

It is solved!
Turns out that Webroot Secure Anywhere intentionally, and with malice aforethought, disables the numlock key in web browsers. I have no idea why.
They have had a registry hack fix for...

I have had this problem on three different keyboards, from three different brands on two different computers.

After a reboot, the numlock will not work. The indicator light goes on and off as...
