I tried to muster up the energy to write a biting answer to that one, but I discovered much to my surprise that I don't really care enough... 
So cheers instead! ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)

WHAT? He's dead? When did that happen? Why didn't anybody post something about that?
Anyway, he may be dead. but I'm sure he's loving it[^]...

That's not the only thing. Lounge is so rigid nowadays with all the WSO* and OTD theres just no spontaneity anymore.
(I know that I invented WSO CCC so I have a lot to answer for)

Actually I use that word a lot as my FORTRAN professor used it because it had eight letters.

I see, so we've moved on to the next phase. Complaining about W10 complaints.

I'd complain about my MacBook not working but its basically jewellery so I don't imagine I'd get any sympathy.
I'd complain about my Linux VM not working but its my mess and I can't really expect anyone else to fix it.
I'd complain about my UNIX workstation but the last time I did that someone called "Nedry" applied a patch and now my back garden is full of velociraptors.

Well at least you got the workstation fixed and it added functionality!

It's very meta. Next phase is complaining about the complaints about the complaints.
|
|

|

Was that a complaint about meta meta complaints?
Because if so, it's getting old already.

I never meta complaint I didn't like

After the 50th post about Windows 10 complaints, it gets old, boring, and tiring. So, the 51st person's complaint post is not even read, because it is no different than the other posts before it. Sucks for the poster.
|
|
|
|
|
Then stop reading about it.
As long as something is crap, people will point that fact out. It is getting old to complain that you are bored with seeing a repetition.

I have a new issue with Win X, I hope someone can help me with.
I have little or no network skills, but I do (did, cause it's not working anymore) have a small network at home. A very old Windows 2008 in my basement and a fairly old, but still running smooth Win 7 upgraded to Win X machine.
I added some shared drives in my basement and used remote desktop to do some config on my "server" occasionally.
Since yesterday I think, the shared drives are inaccessible and remote desktop doesn´t work anymore, for whatever reason (the server does not accept any connections according to diagnostics). However, my laptop from work can access the remote desktop (which is a Win 7), but also no shared drives
I did about everything I could think of.
- Checked allow remote desktop connections
- Checked file sharing is on and user has sufficient rights (though never changed that in the first place)
- Allowed the remote desktop through the firewall
- Switched the firewall completely off
- Checked all the services where running
- did a scf and it fixed an error (server).
- I DID try turning it off and on again
- performed last updates
- Changed some funky registry setting apparently changed with Win X.
I can still ping the server and it still shows in the network (though no access)
I was thinking about some system restore, but not sure which machine. Is it really the server blocking something from Win X or is it the Win X that is doing something it shouldn't? Note that it worked for over 2 weeks before anything like this went wrong. I'm not convinced reverting will change anything.
thanks for any ideas you can throw my way 
[SOLUTION]
I have NO idea. My best guess is that a file was corrupt which in turn made the some services fail on startup and that combined with the fact that you need to reboot the client (my Win X) before retrying the connection.
Or something like that... Anyway, finally have my music back

What's WinX? Did you mean Windows 10?

Generally this is the best solution when something is not working on any machine
Quote: performed last updates
This is the root cause of most of the trouble.

Not related to the OP, but the other day the office printer was having problems. I went to check on it, and on its LCD display it was saying "System Error - restart printer", and included a picture showing where the power button was. Very helpful....

Yeah, yeah. You pulled a cable out (or the cat/dog/mouse/wife/house ghost/meter reader did) and didn't notice, didn't you? Come on. Admit it. We've all been there, done that, bought the T-shirt, spilled wine down it, and donated it to the charity shop. We'll think none the less of you (although I can't guarantee that that isn't because there's no more 'down' to go ....)
