Windows – Users Home Drives Renamed to ‘My Documents’
KB ID 0000783 Problem This problem was originally identified by Microsoft here. But none of the fixes recommended by them were really practical in my clients situation. I did read one promising post that said, if you disable offline file caching by GPO this problem would cease. However this particular client HAD TO have that feature enabled (for Ranger Offline). Someone else had written a PowerShell script that ran through and...

XCOPY – Insufficient Memory
KB ID 0000810 Problem If I’m migrating client data, I use Xcopy a lot, especially if I want to preserve the permissions. One of the questions I usually ask is “Do any of your users have file names that are very long, i.e. longer than 256 characters?” Because if you are moving a lot of data and it’s been running for a few hours, then suddenly fails saying ‘Insufficient Memory’, then that’s probably...

I was attempting to change the product key of a Windows 2008 R2 Server, I copied and pasted the code in, and this happened; I assumed I’d done something stupid, or there was some formatting in the text I had copied (from One Note). So I typed it in manually, every time I tried to enter the letter ‘n’ this happened? And when I copy pasted the code in it had removed...
