      If they were told, then it's on them if they lose the document that they "spent all Friday working on".

      We generally don't tell them about windows updates because we do them so late at night and on weekends no one should be leaving their stuff open (it wasn't any of our remote users). And it's generally less than 10min of down time.

      I added a GPO that pushes out a scheduled task to force reboot the computer Monday Morning at 4am.

      In your case, do one on Friday evening or Saturday Morning then you know nothing will be open when you do server updates.

      LOL and come in to a pissed off boss Monday morning. No matter how many times I've asked she still refuses to close out her programs at the end of the day.

      She loses a few hours / days worth of work because the server "randomly rebooted" ... Maybe she'd learn her lesson.

          Source forge is down after a Storage "fault" on Thursday. They are still down.

            @thecreativeone91 Owch, owch... It looks like they got parts of the sites back up... I can't imagine having to restore that much data though. Oy.

                Waiting to hear from the rest of the house - They are on their way back from TN. Same drive took me nearly seven hours yesterday due to weather, traffic, blown truck tires (not mine), and at one point WAZE seemed to report a 22 mile backup.

                At just under four hour drive normally, full tank of gas, no rush to be home, it was a nice day to drive. Except the rain.

                But made it home, mowed the yard before it started raining here.. We are expecting up to another 3inches of rain in the next 24 hours. I see that in California they are getting some needed rain,.. but it washed out a section of the i10, causing motorists to drive hundreds of miles out of the way to get from California to Arizona. Adds to the fires and possible mud/rock slides.

                  The family is all getting ready to head out to the movies. Going to have the house to myself all day which is nice for actually getting some work done.

                      No, that was to be in the office. You don't go into an office to be productive. That's to see people.

                        Huh - all this time I have been misusing my time while at an office. 😄

                        And of course now - I don't have one to go to.

                          I'm trying to find the registry hack that will allow you to run remote apps and the full remote desktop session in the same RDS Collection.

                            I'm in a meeting and I am apparently the only one who showed up. Is today a holiday or something that I did not know about?

                                @scottalanmiller Somebody rescheduled the meeting and forgot to tell you? ... or you are an hour off due to time zones?

                                  I'm confused on time zones. Argh. It's an hour before start of day in Silicon Valley.

                                        Yes, that's the standard for SF and Silicon Valley.

                                          I think that Portland and Seattle are 10am start of days too. Definitely 9-9:30 at the earliest.
