You can check the version of the SMB protocol by which the client connects to the server using the PowerShell command:

Get-SmbConnection

On the file server side, you can display a list of the versions of the SMB protocols that the clients are currently using. Run the command:

Get-SmbSession | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Dialect | Sort-Object -Unique

In this example, there are 898 clients connected to the server using SMB 2.1 (Windows 7/ 2008 R2) and 8 clients via SMB 3.02 (Windows 8.1 / 2012 R2).

Q; We save files in OneDrive. One of our files is damaged and can’t be opened. How can we recovery it?

A:  1. try revert to the earlier version! Right click the file and choose version history.

2. In File -> Version History you can find all the different versions of the document. This is where you can find the exact time for each version as well.

Within File Options -> Save you will find these options too:

3. If above doesn’t work, try to restore it from the Office 365 backup.

Situation: the client manually set both Screen & Sleep settings to “Never”, but it locks after inactivity. They wonder if there is any GPO setting (or registry, etc.) that will prevent a Windows 10 machine from locking after inactivity?

Resolution: 1. For group policy, try this:

Computer Configuration->Windows Settings->Security Settings->Local Policies->Security Options->Interactive logon: Machine inactivity limit

Changing this directly affects the stated registry entry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\InactivityTimeoutSecs

2. For registry, try this:

Registry Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Registry Path: \Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\
Value Name: InactivityTimeoutSecs
