I'm new to a company with a small network of computers (~10). We have a server (\\SERVER) that has multiple shared folders on it. The image below is a snapshot from file explorer. The bottom left shows "Network" and "server" appearing on the network. The shared files are also shown.
When I am logged into the SERVER (i.e. sit down at the actual computer acting as the server) with an administrator account, I can't find these shared folders anywhere. I suspect they reside somewhere on the C: drive (both the C: drive and the shared folders have the exact same size). My question is, where should I be able to find these folders on the computer SERVER?
I am definitely a noob to this type of thing. Perhaps I'm missing something fundamental. Either way, any help that could be offered would be very appreciated!

To view a list of all shared folders
Right-click Computer and choose Manage (Requires administrative
privileges)
Once opened, go to Computer Management > System
Tools > Shared Folders > Shares

I tried deleting my last microsoft account because it had an email I no longer had access to. I now have a new 'main' account on my windows 10 PC. But somehow the old account still exists and takes up a lot of space from my disk. I can't see the files of the old account in my explorer, so I can't delete them but they do take up disk space. As you can see in the pictures below, it says that nearly all 250 GB of my disk are used according to the explorer. But if I check how much actual disk space should be used with WinDirStat it only says I have files that are 91.4GB on my hard drive. Any tips would be welcome.
You say that you are using WinDirStat. You can use WinDirStat to remove the directories which take too much space. In case this does not work, you can launch WinDirStat as administrator: as an administrator you have access to all files on your computer (right-click and mention "Als Administrator uitvoeren").

Hey Any one please help me !! An unknown extra drive is shown in My Computer and when i tried to open it ... it says Access Denied .... I don't know from where it come from and when i checked it in Disk Management its not their. Please help me to remove that drive.
Below is the screen short of that Drive & Disk Management.
When I restarted my Windows system it's gone.
Remember: You should do a restart, not a shut down.
I think it's related to Windows updates.
I wonder if this could be that 100MB Windows Reserved EFI system partition that you somehow started displaying instead of it being hidden by default.

I am very new to programming in anything. I want to get started with Ruby. I have a pc and laptop. I don't want to limit myself to just the pc. As long as Ruby is installed on both, of course, can I keep my project files in DropBox so I can work on them from either device?
Thanks for your help.

Yes. Source code files can be kept in Dropbox just like any other file. You can use Dropbox to keep your files in sync between your two computers.
As you find yourself more comfortable with programming and make programs of greater complexity, you will probably want to use a version control system (VCS), such as Git. Among many other things, a VCS will keep your project files centralized in a repository. If the repository is in the cloud (e.g. on GitHub) you will be able to access it from all your computers.

Is it 100% safe to move the pagefile.sys file from c: to another drive on Windows Server 2008? We are getting low on C: space and need to move it off, but not if there is any risk. This is a production web server and (other than a quick reboot) downtime is not acceptable, as you can imagine :)
I dont think this is a good place for such questions, its a programming related site,
I can give you a hint that this should be OK, It will even speed up you paging file, some reference below (I was actually reading it recently :) ):

following part:
What you should actually do is move your pagefile to a completely
different physical drive to split up the workload.
but confirm it with some windows admin experts

I use Win7 and usually I put some files on my desktop so that I can access them easily. But I like to backup files on other driver instead of drive C. So I want to find a way that I can put those files on my desktop while they are stored on D drive. Is it possible and how to do? Thanks!
I hope to access them easily: means that they can be saw directly on desktop.
You could tweak registry settings with earlier versions of Windows so that the USER directory is located on other drives: that is no longer the case since Windows 7.
The closest you can come to doing what you want to do is placing your files on the D: drive, and dragging a shortcut onto your Desktop (you can also create a symbolic link to your desktop directory, but that's more trouble, and there's no real advantages).
Perhaps a safer alternative is to use the vanilla Windows functionality, but use one of the online backup services like Mozy to keep the files safe.
You can put the files onto your D drive and right click on each file and click "Send To" then click "Desktop(create shortcut)".
