OMG, what? Are you saying we can't use RSAT? It's a bit problematic that
the Wiki in most cases advises you to use RSAT for this and that. How do
we create GPO's without RSAT, for example? When you say latest version
of Windows 10, can you pinpoint what version that is so I most carefully
do not update one of the W10 machines?
Time for another dose of 'zac and jack (Prozac washed down with Jack
Daniels). Why, oh why did I get out of math, where nothing ever suffers
random updates that break everything?
