With the slow and deliberate departure of Bill Gates at Microsoft, many life long users like myself have noticed a shift in many of the guiding principles that he built his empire upon and drilled into his teams and users around the world. More on this in upcoming post.
Performing a simple task in Windows GUI should be a straight forward task. However, lately simple and Windows are drifting farther apart than most users are aware of. So being a cautious and detail oriented Admin, I enlisted Copilot as a precaution.
My AI coding pal and I have crossed this path before during development of an application and I had some issues attempting this before. A common practice is to move users home and/or profile folders off the boot drive to keep it clean and lean. I expected some secondary steps, but I was not expecting the answer I got from Copilot.
Important note on AI: I have been working with AI on a forensics grade Windows Configuration application so the level of detail it provides me is not necessarily what a normal user should expect. I possess no special access, think of it as a friend that knows my capabilities and usual focus.
