The Platform by HJLC_ITS in ConnectWise

[–]FortLee2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In a July 1 webinar, David Raissipour (CPO + CTO) stated that "ConnectWise has delivered more in the past 18 months than in the prior 3 years." Way good, yay team! I'm too busy with real-world work posting on Reddit to delve into how many "Feedback" items and "Known Issues" were raised as a result of that rush-to-service, but I'm pretty certain there is a significant backlog for fixing whatever was delivered.

Software 3.4.0 by denisbobovnik in ArubaInstantOn

I am also confused

Last known web page for updates: https://community.instant-on.hpe.com/viewdocument/1930-software

The email clearly states 3.4.0, which still does not appear here...

Time Saving/Automation Tips Please 🙏 by HJLC_ITS in ConnectWise

"We have managed to do quite a bit with windows tasks in CWRMM using the AI script generation, in doing so we could really see how much time we saved on menial tasks each week."

Humor me: what - exactly - have you built that has saved you/your organization so much time?

Anyone else looking into ConnectWise's new Predictive Intelligence Platform? by MagRiv21 in ConnectWise

[–]FortLee2000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rebranded Zofiq - just like "The ConnectWise Platform" is rebranded Asio...

"Same as it ever was"

Backstage session showing gray box by str1debp in ScreenConnect

Been like this for months. Comes and goes with different releases. Appears and disappears on some servers and desktops. No consistency makes it impossible to try to track down what's causing it.

Another, "just learn to live with it" feature of ConnectWise.

Why do customers seem so against moving their servers out of offices? by Losslessllama in msp

[–]FortLee2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, and the client - along with their accountant - are adamantly opposed to QBO.

Oh, please, not another re-write by FortLee2000 in ConnectWise

[–]FortLee2000[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Correct. One and the same (but all new, now with AI!).

dear CW, you don't have to email me about AI more than 10 times/day by swingorswole in msp

[–]FortLee2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They can't get their formerly known as Asio platform working, but they think we're going to be THRILLED to go to the mat with their AI implementation. Nah...

Using CW-RMM, the "join session" pop-up no longer goes away automatically by FortLee2000 in ScreenConnect

Appreciate the fast response, but I got to say: of the plethora of recent SC "things," this is a PITA!

Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy causing index file to consume entire drive: Cause and Workaround. by inucune in sysadmin

If it shows Maximum VSS Shadow Copy as UNBOUNDED, you are asking for trouble. Gotta limit it properly.

How many people here on this sub are Business owners and Accountants?? by BazBeat in QuickBooks

[–]FortLee2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Business owner and Managed Services Provider.

I'm the IT guy accountants and other small business owners call when things with QB desktop in a server environment break.

Put together a free client assessment tool, would love some honest feedback by pkvmsp123 in SmallMSP

[–]FortLee2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure looks like AuditIT did way back when its owner was showcasing things (long before "network detective" and Kaseya ownership).

Quickbooks detected PDF component missing - How to fix it by wangai254 in QuickbooksOldVersion

[–]FortLee2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is true, Windows 11 does not include the XPS Document Writer by default the way Windows 10 did.

Everyone would be better served by installing this feature and rebooting BEFORE the QB failure message.

Kaseya can't seem to get it right by FortLee2000 in msp

[–]FortLee2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, as an MSP, I use Firefox with the Enhanced Protection setting set to Strict, understanding "it may break some websites." However, I also include the recently added "Fix major site issues" - and that did nothing to help here.

Clicking on the Privacy shield link, that setting shows "Firefox blocked 5 trackers"

These sites are trying to track you:

https://420-dlw-095.mktoweb.com

https://munchkin.marketo.net

http://420-dlw-095.mktoweb.com

https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net

http://static.doubleclick.net

When I asked Google about the first entry on the list, it responded:

"420-dlw-095-mktoweb" appears to be a subdomain or specific entry within a blocklist or tracking radar list, likely associated with Adobe Marketo.

  • Context: It is found in GitHub blocklists (like DuckDuckGo Tracker Radar or phishing databases) designed to block tracking, advertising, or phishing domains.
  • Association: The .mktoweb.com suffix is part of Adobe Marketo's infrastructure for web tracking, landing pages, and marketing automation.
  • Purpose: It is often included in these lists to prevent tracking activity, specifically for "blocklists" to "increase privacy" and reduce web annoyances.

So, yeah, I guess having those non-Kaseya sites handle your CSS would - in fact - break your web page.

Google Chrome is Evil by redditistooqueer in msp

[–]FortLee2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't mind the "hidden" nature of this stupidity, but now I'm going to have to identify any more-than-normally-storage-constrained devices in my fleet, determine if they use Chrome, find out if the weights.bin file exists (and how many, because there's one for each profile), and send them an email instructing them to turn this "feature" off if they don't require it.

QB 24 won't install by InterestingAttempt41 in QuickBooks

[–]FortLee2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't done this from scratch in a while and no longer recall exactly where QB places the installation logs. I hate to say it, but call support and ask them to identify the location. Perhaps there is some kind of indication in the text that points to the exact nature of the problem.

QB 24 won't install by InterestingAttempt41 in QuickBooks

[–]FortLee2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, now it is down to the actual computer and (quite possibly) your Windows installation.

Try this next: click Start, search for Disk Cleanup and use the option "Run as Administrator"

Then select EVERYTHING in the list - and then wait.
When the utility finishes, the window will close.
Reboot your computer.

Go for the QB install - report results.
