    login to several computers using the same user


    I often need to login to several win 10 computers at the same time using the same admin user account
    There is a way to do that, maybe running a script or command automatically? It will save me a lot of time.

    Thanks


    :)

  2. Two Windows 10 computers using the same account can access eachothers files (even if one has file sharing disabled!)

    If you are using the same Microsoft account for both computers, some things will sync, depending on your settings.

    In particular, files in OneDrive folders will transfer.

  3. Two Windows 10 computers using the same account can access eachothers files (even if one has file sharing disabled!)

    I have a laptop and a desktop, both running Windows 10 on the same login.

    I have been modifying network settings, and I have noticed that if my laptop has network discovery totally disabled, but I enable it on my desktop, my desktop can start accessing the laptops files. The same thing works vice versa.

    Is this because both computers use the same login? Otherwise this seems like a big security flaw! How do I fix this?

    Do you mean login when in front of PC or connect via network?

    At the moment I have to do it manually one by one in the LAB. I was wondering if there is a way to send via network a command or script that do it all in once.
