Server 2025 Core ADDS DC, Network Profile Showing as "Public" and not as "DomainAuthenticated"
OS: Windows Server 20225 Standard Core (no GUI), build 26085.1 Role: ADDS, DNS ForestMode: Windows2025Forest DomainMode: Windows2025Domain Platform: Hyper-V guest When standing up a clean Windows Server 2025 using server core and configuring it as a domain controller, the network category (profile) always shows as "public." A clean load of Windows Server 2022 with server core as a domain controller has the same behavior. However, in Server 2022, the fix is to add DNS as a required service to the nlasvc (Network Location Awareness) service. Once that is done, the network category reflects "DomainAuthenticed" and persists between reboots. In Server 2025, the nlasvc service does not have the same requiredservices as Windows Server 2022, and it does not start automatically. Even after configuring the nlasvc service the same way it is in Server 2022 and adding DNS as a required service, the network category still reflects "public." The only way to get the network category to properly reflect the "DomainAuthenticated" status is to disable and reenable the network adapter after each reboot.
Please Help-me
Hello everyone, as part of my degree, I will start using Windows Server 2016 from Monday. Big problem, I’m working with a MacBook M1, and I’m encountering a major issue since I can’t find any ARM64-compatible ISO for Server… I’m already working with W11 Pro but have been struggling for a week to find something that will work… Do you know if there’s a solution (no emulation) or an ARM64 version of Windows Server? Even 2019 or 2022. Help me out! 😭
Problem with in-place upgrade of windows server 2016 to 2022
Hello, I am having issues while trying to upgrade the servers. We have two Windows Server 2016 Domain Controllers. AD, DNS, NPAS roles are installed on the DCs. I have built a new 2022 Server. I was trying to upgrade the schema by running ADprep /forestprep and ADprep /domainprep on Primary DC that holds the schema master role. I am constantly getting this error. I have tried everything and checked all the permissions. Here is the output of my ADprep execution: PS D:\support\adprep> .\adprep.exe /forestprep ADPREP WARNING: Before running adprep, all Windows Active Directory Domain Controllers in the forest must run Windows Server 2003 or later. You are about to upgrade the schema for the Active Directory forest named 'amii.ca', using the Active Directory domain controller (schema master) 'AVMVPRDMFT ADS01.amii.ca'. This operation cannot be reversed after it completes. [User Action] If all domain controllers in the forest run Windows Server 2003 or later and you want to upgrade the schema, confirm by typing 'C' and then press ENTER to co ntinue.

File Share Write Access Denied to user from one PC
Hello, I have a user that cannot access a file share from one computer. Normally replacing the computer or anything like that would be a fine resolution, but in this scenario I can't. I have however used a backup from a day ago and restored the computer to a previous, 'believed to be working' state. So I am not entirely sure when it started occurring (as I don't know how often the user uses this computer and it still doesn't work), and I don't have that much retention on the device's backup. Either way here is what we have. A domain authenticated user is trying to access \\share\drive\baby\ and save files to the directory. The permissions haven't changed on the share before it stopped working (they had full control before I changed it today but it wasn't working then so I left it on modify as that is my preference), the account isn't locked, the computer hasn't changed, and I can sign into any other computer as this user, and save to the share in question. So I am at a loss on what is going on or what to check next. Here is what I have tried: For giggles, I removed the user's permissions (as they are explicitly defined by user and not designated by groups), and I added them back (as modify though). I also tested adding them to a group, giving the group full control, signing out/in of the computer and trying again. I have removed the computer from the domain, deleted the computer object and added it back, and still no dice. The credentials are not in Windows credential manager for me to clear. Tested from several other PCs as this user and I can edit as needed from them. I have not deleted the account and rebuilt it on the computer, but if there are no other suggestions this is my next step. Here are some visual aids:
