      Get the machine re-imaged with the most recent image.

      Yeah, we have an image for the desktops for the users. However, I was told by my co-worker that he doesn't know of an image that WE have for our laptops, which seems odd and strange to me...so working on that...

        I mean, worst case scenario, I have to go through and make scheduled tasks for all the services that won't turn back on, so that I'm basically duplicating all those same start-ups. I can do it. It's just a pain in the ass.

          I know you are a good tech, but in IT accuracy is always more important than speed.

          Unless you can be speedy and accurate.

          Like us pros.

          🙂

          Usually that is me. Especially around here. Most of what I do is so routine I can do it basically in my sleep. But on my machine I have a lot more freedom, and I have been sick and kind of out of it, so I just got a little sloppy...ugh...

            What is disabled that doesn't stick, when you ask it to?

            It's a Lenovo T420, and I disabled a few of the Lenovo services, which also unfortunately disables things like the battery status, wifi, etc. I think part of the problem might be the McAfee. I was testing something and turned off the startup of a couple of the McAfee items, but the services still run. I think that something on that end might be blocking me re-enabling them, so it might be McAfee blocking me from fully re-enabling itself because of "security".

              Big surprise there.

                Lenovo, McAfee... this is going downhill quickly! 😉
