Improving the performance of shared 蜜桃AV Windows 10 computers
Following feedback from students and staff, IT Services have made changes to improve the performance of shared (lab or presentation) 蜜桃AV Windows 10 computers.听This complements the application improvements made possible through local installation of a number of听applications formerly delivered via AppsAnywhere.
Issues
Through staff and student feedback the following issues were identified:听
Lengthy delays waiting for files to be available in OneDrive at logon
Loss of files and coursework not uploaded to OneDrive听before logoff
The current configuration for shared 蜜桃AV computers requires the users鈥� profile to be removed at logoff to minimise the amount of disk space being used 鈥� this is where most of these issues stem from.听
Solutions听
IT Services will be increasing the amount of storage on shared workstation computers (for example those in Poole Gateway Building) to enable more user profiles to be stored meaning they do not need to be removed at logoff.听
Please note: Profiles may still be removed periodically to ensure disks do not fill up,听so there are no guarantees user profiles will remain on devices a user has previously logged in to. The storage on Open Access and Library computers will not be increased as they are not expected to be used for specialist computing.听
Benefits听
Quicker log-in times for staff and students who regularly use the same computer听听
Files stored in OneDrive will be available to access more quickly on previously used computers
Reduction in the loss of files 鈥� users will now have the ability to log back in to a shared computer to allow OneDrive to continue to sync if they notice files are missing
