I was just put on the spot from the higher ups at work and need to get a personal laptop on the network. To preface the rest of the post, I understand that this is horrible practice, I understand the risks, and I understand the concept of the horrors of personal PC's on company time. I get it, but it's a director and I need it done and I need some pointers to alleviate the horribleness. I have only been dealing with Windows Server for about two months, am not well-adjusted quite yet, and have never had formal education or training.
There are a few computers that need access to network drives and light GP that are running Windows 10 Home, and they need to retain ALL of the local data and profile settings. Will the standard Win10Home button for "connecting" in lieu of "join" do what I want? Any and all help is appreciated. Server is 2008 r2.
This is probably really simple, but I want to be absolutely certain beforehand, due to sensitive documents, and I've never had to do this before so handle the noob gently, please.
