![]() He protests loudly when asked to change, learn anything new or take on a single responsibility. He wants everything to be as easy as possible. He is also the business owner, and refuses to learn anything that he can make someone else bend to his will - that includes how to use a dock. He's ADHD and (in many ways) like a large child. ![]() I have mentioned this, and they have experienced a forced reboot once or twice that resulted in lost data, but that has not changed their behavior - so I cannot depend on him changing his behavior (or rebooting the desktop when he changes from using the laptop to the desktop).Īny suggestions would be greatly appreciated. While they are all using battery backups, that is no guarantee that any power outages will resolve before the batteries run down, or that a Microsoft update will not force a reboot. He, and others in his office, have a very bad habit of leaving their apps and documents open every night. The only problem there is that he never restarts his desktop PC unless he absolutely has to. I could set it to save every 15 minutes and set each machine to load the current layout when it is started. There is a free application called DesktopOK that will save your desktop layout, and it will do so in 15 minute increments, but it has no ability to (a) watch the desktop for changes and auto-save if items move, are deleted from, or are added to the desktop or (b) to watch for changes to the layout file and apply those changes to the current desktop. I have used OneDrive to share his desktop on both the desktop PC and the laptop, but that doesn't save WHERE each icon or file is on the desktop, or icons sizes and such. Many times he will be out of range of a decent connection to do remote work, and I seriously doubt he could do it (with all of the print settings and things that he could screw up). No.RDP (or any other remote desktop solution) will not work. He wants the laptop and desktop to always mirror one another. ![]() ![]() He is a genius at his thing, and a complete neophyte when it comes to his smartphone, desktop, or laptop. ![]() But what he is awesome at has NOTHING to do with technology. I have a user who is awesome at what he does. ![]()
