I had already tried this option before without result, and I guess it does not apply to my case. The reason I say that it does not apply is because a session is open all the time because I do not logout, all I do is to finish my work in the server and leave, I do not logout. After a period of...

I have a batch file to terminate a Windows Server 2008 session and it works fine. I also created a programmed task so it runs automatically around midnight but, when I go to our server in the morning, the session is still active and Windows is only blocked. As all of you must know, Windows...

I found the problem. The file needed to be created firstly in the Windows Server 2008 machine so its Creator Owner was updated.

I see that mounting a volume to a folder is a technique already used by other operating systems like Unix. It is, in fact, new to Windows Server. According to what I read, it is a good approach and practice to use it and save letters for special situations.

I bought a refurbished DELL PowerEdge 2950 and installed Windows Server 2008 Standard 64 bits. I am trying to update the video drivers so I downloaded them from "DELL Dirvers and Downloads". I run the executable that would make the update but I get a message saying that "The configuration will...

I have always assigned letters (E:, F:, G:, etc) to volumes but I know that they can also be mounted to empty NTFS folders. I assume that one advantage about this last approach is to save letters and use them when necessary. Is there any disadvantage in mounting a volume to a NTFS folder...
